Get precise control with the rOtring 500 mechanical pencil with metal grip. This drafting pencil combines a lightweight plastic body and textured metal grip zone to provide comfort during any technical writing, sketching, or drawing task. A brass mechanism delivers precision lead advancement in the rOtring mechanical pencil, while a fixed lead guidance sleeve prevents breakage and offers an unimpeded page view for precise ruler-based drawing. Meanwhile, the hexagonal barrel ensures fatigue-free writing and drawing and prevents the tool from rolling even on inclined drafting tables. With a sleek, modern, green barrel design, the rOtring 500 stands out from other mechanical pencils. Finally, the adjustable lead hardness grade indicator lets you identify pencils quickly when working, so you always know when you have this 0.5mm mechanical pencil in hand.
