88N1417 - Unbreakable Pencil
Perhaps “unbreakable” is a bit aspirational here – but the DelGuard mechanical pencil with an “unbreakable lead” is the only 0.5mm lead pencil that deserves a place in everyone’s shop.
The secret is a double-sprung, patent-pending mechanism that allows the lead to retract under vertical load and extends the point sleeve to brace the lead under sideward loads – such as when you write at an angle. It just really works.
But yes – if you really try, you can break the lead.
Comes with a pack of replacement HB leads.
Most mechanical pencils only support the lead vertically, so it snaps under sideward pressure. This DelGuard mechanical pencil uses a patent-pending double-sprung mechanism that retracts the lead under vertical load and extends the point sleeve to brace it sideways, such as when you write at an angle.
It comes with a pack of replacement HB leads, and refilling is as simple as loading a new 0.5mm lead into the tip like any standard mechanical pencil.
HB is a standard, medium-hardness graphite grade that sits between softer B grades and harder H grades, making it a good all-around choice for everyday writing and sketching.
