Pentel - Colored Lead Refills
Colored Lead Refills
Swap colors instantly in your favorite mechanical pencil setup
Pentel's colored leads transform any compatible mechanical pencil into a precision coloring tool. The 60mm refills work across Pentel's mechanical pencil lineup, letting you switch between graphite sketching and colored detailing without changing instruments. This matters when you're working through complex illustrations that need both structural accuracy and selective color emphasis.
The 0.5mm and 0.7mm diameter options match standard mechanical pencil mechanisms, maintaining the same reliable advancement and retraction you expect from your everyday pencil. Each tube contains twelve leads, enough for substantial projects while staying compact in your kit. The consistent diameter means predictable line weight, particularly valuable for technical illustration where precision matters as much as color.
Colors layer cleanly over graphite underdrawings and blend moderately with each other, though they perform best as accent elements rather than full coverage coloring. Architects use them for highlighting specific elements in technical drawings. Illustrators add selective color to pen and ink work. Students mark up drafts and diagrams with visual clarity that highlighters can't match. Keep tubes organized by color, and you'll have instant access to precise colored lines whenever mechanical pencil control serves your work better than traditional colored pencils.
