Acmeliae 43514 2B MultiColor Body Graphite Pencils contain 2.4mm break-resistant lead inside softened poplar wood. Each 7-inch round barrel undergoes 1C hot roll printing for a permanent finish. This set includes 12 individual pieces per box for standard school or office applications.
Key Features
- Softened Poplar Wood: High-density poplar casing treated for structural flexibility. Wood fibers resist splintering during sharpening under high pressure.
- 2.4mm Graphite Core: Thick 2B lead diameter provides high tensile strength. This core reduces breakage when dropped on hard floors.
- 1C Hot Roll Printing: Industrial thermal transfer application for external body markings. Labeling stays intact despite road dust or hand sweat.
- 7-Inch Round Barrel: Standardized length matching most pencil cases and extenders. Round geometry offers uniform pressure distribution across the fingertips.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Acmeliae 2B pencil good for sketching?
The 2B grade provides a soft, dark graphite output suitable for basic shading. Its 2.4mm lead maintains a point better than softer 4B or 6B alternatives.
What material makes up the pencil body?
Softened poplar wood surrounds the graphite core for easier sharpening. This material prevents the lead from cracking inside the barrel during heavy use.
