Frequently Asked Questions

How does the shaker lead advance work?

Simply shake the pencil up and down lightly to extend the 0.5mm lead. You can also advance the lead conventionally by pushing down on the pocket clip.

How do I prevent lead from advancing inside my pencil case?

Slide the pocket clip upward until it clicks into the locked position. This disables the shaker mechanism so lead will not extend accidentally during transit.

Is the built-in eraser replaceable?

Yes, the top twist eraser is the standard Tombow MONO Graph ER-MG replacement eraser, which can be easily swapped when depleted.

What lead hardness works best with this pencil?

The pencil accommodates any standard 0.5mm pencil lead, including HB, B, and 2B leads such as Tombow MONO-WX or Uni NanoDia.

Can this pencil be used for ruler drafting and template drawing?

Yes, the rigid 4mm guide pipe stabilizes the lead against straight edges and templates, preventing breakage and ensuring crisp lines.
