Description

The Faber-Castell TK Fine Mechanical Pencils brings you a high-quality professional pencil for writing or design work. 

  • With a retractable lead sleeve, lead-grade indicator, eraser and metal clip, they’re smart, convenient and highly reliable.
  • We stock Faber-Castell TK Fine Mechanical Pencils in four different lead sizes, the 0.35 mm lead for extra fine drawing, the 0.5 mm lead for fine drawing, the 0.7 mm lead for particularly break-resistant drawing or the 1.0 mm lead for extra wide drawing.
  • The lead can of course be fully retracted.

All four lead sizes are fine HB leads.

Q&A (4)
Q What are these used for?
A

Mechanical pencils are used for technical drawings and for work where accuracy and precision is required. They do not need sharpening and use lead made to size which is pushed through the body of the pencil to use. This provides a consistent size marking.

Q What size lead shall I go for?
A

This will depend on what you are using the pencil for. Leads are measured by the width of the marking the lead will make. For example, a 0.5mm lead will draw a line that measures 0.5mm thick. Thus, if drawing on a smaller scale, a smaller size lead may be more appropriate. In terms of the grade of the lead, H stands for hard, and B stands for black. A H pencil will offer a lighter marking and a B pencil will offer a darker marking.

Q What material are the leads made of?
A

The leads for these pencils are made from graphite graded from H to B.

Q on the size selection it has 0.3mm but on the image and description it says 0.35mm which one is it?
A

Dear Lara,

The pencil takes 0.35 leads so this is the correct size, we will change this on the web site, sorry for the confusion

16th May 2018 Reviewed by Katherine Glover While writing/drawing with the pencil is nice enough, and the pencil feels good in the hand filling it with lead is very very difficult and not helped by the lack of any instructions. I absolutely would not recommend this pencil to anyone who is not incredibly dexterous for poking the leads into the small hole. I had to ask for help to get mine filled. Will not buy any more.
