Pentel PENPG1017C Graphgear 1000 Drafting Pencil 0.7mm

Product Description

The PENTEL PENPG1017C is a mechanical drafting pencil designed for precision drawing, technical illustration, and detailed writing tasks. It features a 0.7mm lead diameter and a blue barrel with a finely chiseled metallic grip inlaid with soft, latex-free pads for fingertip comfort during extended use. The pencil ships loaded with Pentel Super Hi-Polymer HB lead, a grade equivalent to a No. 2 wood-case pencil. The lead resists breaking, requires no sharpening, and is certified to scan on standardized tests. An extra-long 4mm exposed lead tip supports precision line work, and a heavy spring mechanism retracts the tip fully into the barrel when the pocket clip is engaged.

The PENPG1017C suits professionals in drafting, architecture, engineering, and design as well as students and technical writers who require consistent line weight and reliable lead performance. The retractable tip protects the lead during transport and storage. The spring-loaded pocket clip secures the pencil to shirt pockets, notebooks, or clipboard edges without permanent deformation of the clip. The pencil is fully refillable with replacement lead and eraser inserts, reducing consumable waste over time.
