What are Faber-Castell pencils?
Founded in 1761, Faber-Castell is the oldest pencil manufacturer in the world. Choose from the best quality graphite pencils in a wide variety of designs and colors.What are they used for?
Their quality and variety of grades have made them a favorite of illustrators and artists. Their lead, glued along the entire length of the pencil, is especially break-resistant. The Castell 9000 is available in 16 degrees of hardness, making it the perfect pencil for technical and artistic applications.What is the difference between Faber-Castell pencils?
Faber-Castell pencils are divided into "H" and "B." "H" pencils are harder pencils with a light stroke, and "B" pencils are soft pencils with a darker stroke. F and HB pencils are the midpoint of pencils. The HB – Faber-Castell pencil has a lead that is a mix between soft and hard; we can say it's 0 on the scale, leaning towards soft. It is the most used for taking notes as it allows for consistent and clear writing without leaving marks on the paper. A pencil with lead made with more clay mixed with graphite is a more resistant pencil. They are distinguished, on one hand, by the letters H and B; on the other hand, by a number from 1 to 4, with 4 being the hardest. There can also be combinations of the letters: HH, for example, refers to a very hard lead.Leave us your comment to share your opinion.
