Does this pencil require its own lead, or will any 0.7mm lead work with it?

I HIGHLY recommend the diamond infused lead... some comes with the pack... regular lead will break too easy... You can really tell the difference....

You may use any 0.7mm lead with the pencil, but I assure you that once you try this pencil with the diamond-infused lead which it comes with you will want to use that lead by preference. But it is not a requirement.

The pencil does not require its own lead. Any 0.7 mm lead will work with it. Be mindful that this pencil is priced cheaper at Walmart.

No, once the lead is exposed it stays out. Wouldn't it be nice though if you could find mechanical pencils that did retract the lead? I've never founds one myself.

Sorry, the answer is NO. The pencil set come with one standard leads, you do need to purchase 4H, 2H, on your own. What we are trying to show here is the pencil has the indicator that shows what kind of lead is loaded inside the pencil.

Yes, Lance. You click on the tip and the lead will come out. The only difference involving the clicking from traditional mechanical pencils is that the lead comes out in smaller increments so that the amount you want is more precise so you may have to click a couple of times.

works great with regular pencils, but is inconsistent with the softer "lead" in colored pencils. I've never tried it with larger pencils. It doesn't appear to be prepared to accomodate larger sized pencils.

Kirsten, you will need a smaller dia. tubing for wood Regular pencils. Something like maybe 1/4" or maybe smaller then that I'm not sure.

3 different sizes, each size for each pencil.0.3 mm, 0.5 mm and 0.7 mm leads sizes.

Nothing from what I can tell. Perhaps it's a way to remember what type of lead is in the pencil.

You would need to use a mechanical pencil of lead sized 0.5mm or less. Anything bigger or the normal (non-mechanical) pencils are too big.

lead holder vs mechanical pencil... I use both on a daily basis. as for the difference. I will start with the obvious, the lead holder uses a 2mm lead instead of the .5mm,.7mm, or .9mm lead that the mechanical pencil offers. you can also get the 2mm lead in a variety of colors and hardness's depending on your needs. i mostly use my lead holders for shading purposes in my drawings but i have done some complete drawings with them. as for the $1 variety of mechanical pencils always remember that you get what you pay for. if you plan on doing a lot of drawing spend the extra money and get a quality mechanical pencil, i promise you wont be disappointed.

Each pencil requires a different lead size which is indicated by the width of the pencil you are using. You will need 0.3mm lead for the "yellow detail" mechanical pencil , 0.5mm lead for the "burgundy detail" mechanical pencil, and 0.7mm lead for the "blue detail" mechanical pencil.

You can change it to indicate the hardness of the lead in the pencil. I like to have 2B in pencils I write with. HB is pretty standard, bit a little too hard for my liking.

Lead for mechanical pencils can be "rated" such as HB (hard, black) HB is code for #2 lead pencil. There is a little window in the pencil which displays which type you have input in case you want a softer lead (i.e. B) you could look in the window and see what grade your lead is.

Yes. Carefully pull the metal tip off the end of the pencil and replace the lead. Again carefully pull the pen out of the barrel of the pen and twist a replacement back into its place. Easy squeezy! Instructions are on back of the package.

Yes this is correct. The steel is 0.6mm thick. The difference is that you are looking at a small pencil lead whereas this is sheet metal. It is not as thin as you may be thinking.

I make porcelain pottery in my studio. It would be very unlikely that it would have any lead in it because lead is used to get bright colors. This is pure white and would not need lead to get that look.

I am not sure of what do you mean by primary. These have worked and continues to work very well on regular pencil types.Every time I sharpen, there is no uncessary loss of leads and it is as sharp as I require it.
