Precision Drafting Tool

The Pentel GraphGear 500 is a 0.5 mm mechanical pencil built for technical drawing and template work. Its 4 mm fixed sleeve allows clean lines against straightedges. A metallic mesh grip on a slim, beveled barrel gives secure control during detailed sessions. The barrel is weighted at the fingertips for balanced handling.

Refillable System Integration

Preloaded with Pentel Super Hi-Polymer HB lead, the pencil never needs sharpening and produces a dark, consistent line. A built-in lead hardness indicator helps you identify the grade at a glance. The stationary eraser is refillable using Z21 units. Lead refills keep the tool in service without replacement.

Sustained Writing Behaviour

The fixed sleeve and weighted barrel maintain steady geometry through long drafting periods. Super Hi-Polymer lead resists breakage under continuous pressure. The mesh grip prevents slippage as hands warm up. The top-click advance mechanism stays responsive without loosening over extended use.
