Pentel PG1017C Automatic Drafting Pencil 0.7mm

Product Description

The PENTEL PG1017C is a professional-grade automatic drafting pencil designed for precision technical drawing, drafting, and detailed design work. Built around a 0.7mm lead size, it features a 4mm fixed sleeve that extends when the top button is clicked, giving drafters clear sight lines to the work surface. The heavy spring mechanism in the pocket clip retracts the tip fully when engaged, protecting the sleeve during storage and transport. The finely chiseled metallic grip is inlaid with soft rubber pads for controlled fingertip placement during long drawing sessions. This pencil is a standard tool for architects, engineers, and technical illustrators.

The PG1017C is suited for drafting boards, CAD overlay work, and freehand technical illustration. The blue barrel finish identifies this as the 0.7mm variant in the GraphGear 1000 line. The pencil ships as a single unit and is appropriate for professional drafting environments as well as design and engineering coursework where precision lead placement is required.
