Usage
Staedtler Mars micro leads, 0.5 mm HB, are designed for precise writing, drawing, and technical work with mechanical pencils. Suitable for use on both paper and tracing paper in professional or educational contexts.
Advantages
- Consistent 0.5 mm line width ensures detail and accuracy in sketches or notes.
- HB hardness provides a balanced combination of smoothness and erasability.
- High break resistance due to elastic lead composition reduces frequent replacements.
- PVC- and softener-free formulation makes the product more environmentally conscious.
- Easily refill most standard mechanical pencils; packaged in two handy tubes of twelve leads each.
Specifications
- The leads are crafted from approximately 90% natural raw materials using a unique manufacturing process that excludes PVC and plasticizers.
- The elastic lead enhances durability and offers high break resistance during regular use; suitable for intensive writing or drawing sessions.
- Each lead measures precisely 0.5 mm in diameter with an HB hardness grade—delivering uniform lines suited to technical drawing standards.
- Packed as two blister tubes containing twelve pieces each; compatible with all major brands of mechanical pencils accepting ISO-standardized sizes.
How it works
Select one lead from the tube, insert it into your mechanical pencil’s reservoir, then advance as needed during use. The elastic composition allows continuous smooth marking with reduced chance of the lead breaking under normal pressure or when used with rulers or templates.
