Bostitch EPS5V-BLK Electric Pencil Sharpener

Vertical electric sharpener for office and classroom

The Bostitch EPS5V-BLK is a corded electric pencil sharpener designed for desk or countertop use in offices, classrooms or home workspaces. Its compact vertical orientation saves horizontal space while keeping the shavings tray accessible. A safety switch stops the motor whenever the tray is removed, making it suitable for shared environments. The unit weighs 0.381 kilograms and measures 9.2964 L x 11.4046 W x 14.097 H centimeters.

SharpStop motor control and stall-free operation

A powerful motor delivers stall-free sharpening under normal use, while SharpStop technology automatically shuts the motor off once the pencil reaches the optimal point to prevent over-sharpening. Thermal overload protection further extends motor life during repeated cycles. The sharpener handles standard graphite pencils but is not built for continuous high-volume batches or oversized art pencils.

Corded power with thermal protection

The corded electric design draws power directly from a mains outlet, eliminating battery changes. Thermal overload protection activates if the motor overheats, allowing it to cool before resuming operation. No fan or active cooling system is present, so noise remains limited to the motor and sharpening action during typical use.
