Designed for precision and durability, it’s the go-to tool for professionals and creatives who demand accuracy and comfort in every stroke. ## Description "Graph Gear 1000" is a mechanical pencil full of functions for drawing and painting. The weight is moderate, and the slim pen tip has a 4 mm guide pipe that makes it easy to see the line even when the ruler is applied. The grip is made of rubber to prevent hand slipping and knurled dual clip specifications. This hard rubber reduces hand fatigue. In addition, HB, H, B, and 2B can be used properly because the core hardness display window is attached. Furthermore, when you press the clip, the pen tip will be stowed, so you will not damage the pen tip in your pocket or bag. ## Features - Package Dimensions: 19.2 cms (L) x 4.4 cms (W) x 1.1 cms (H) - Product Type: Writing Instrument - Package Quantity: 1 - Country Of Origin: Japan ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Age Range Description | Kid | | Animal Theme | no animal theme | | Asin | B0013NHU7Y | | Best Sellers Rank | 5,672 in Stationery & Office Supplies (See Top 100 in Stationery & Office Supplies) 28 in Mechanical Pencils | | Body Shape | Round | | Brand Name | Pentel | | Closure Type | Retractable | | Colour | Blue | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (8,722) 4.7 out of 5 stars | | Drill Point | Medium | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04902506185334, 04902506188397 | | Grip Type | Ribbed | | Hardness | 0.7 mm | | Included Components | Mechanical Pencil | | Ink Base | Oil | | Ink Colour | Blue | | Is The Product Left Or Right Handed | Left | | Item Diameter | 10 Millimetres | | Item Dimensions | 10 x 150 x 9 millimetres | | Item Weight | 20 g | | Line Size | 0.7 | | Manufacturer | Pentel | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Name | gear | | Model Number | PG1017 | | Pattern | single item | | Recommended Uses For Product | Drafting, Drawing | | Special Features | Retractable | | Style | 0.7mm | | Theme | Technical | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Upc | 787718248251 072512198087 | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | | Writing Instrument Form | Mechanical Graphite Pencil | | Writing Technique | pencil lead | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Kid - **Brand:** Pentel - **Colour:** Blue - **Ink colour:** Blue - **Material:** Metal - **Model name:** gear - **Point type:** Medium - **Special feature:** Retractable - **Unit count:** 1.0 count - **Writing instrument form:** Mechanical Graphite Pencil ## Images ![Pentel Graph Gear 1000 Mechanical Drafting Pencil 0.7mm Blue (PG1017) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71T57qkGPuL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What hardness of lead comes with this pencil?** A: It comes with an H. I replaced this with my preference. An excellent pencil for sharp, clear lines. **Q: What is the difference between this (PG1013) and the PG1013E?** A: I think they are same. PG1013 is for selling in Japan. PG1013E(Maybe, E means for English persons) is for selling in the US. **Q: how do you refill leads into it?** A: Pull off the end cap that exposes the eraser, then put out the eraser and drop the lead into the opening. **Q: why does it NOT accept new lead? what am i doing wrong when trying to add new lead that was made for it?** A: Hello. The Pentel Graphgear 1000 comes in a variety of lead sizes. .3,.4..5,.7 and .9 mm. Please make sure you have the correct size for the pencil you have. Once you do, I load the lead from the top by removing the cap, then the eraser. Lastly, I drop a piece of lead inside of it. I work the action until the new piece has gone through and ready to write/draw. I then place a few more into the top and put the eraser and cap back on. I hope it works for you, because this is a very nice mechanical pencil. If not, then I would resort to the other suggestions, which I have never had to do with this mechanical pencil, but I have on many others. Good luck. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best mechanical pencil you are likely to come across *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 29 February 2016* In short: Fulfils all criteria to guarantee an excellent product experience.Looks: I have lost track of how many years I have had mine (best part of a decade now). They still look the business and are often asked about by my clients whilst I am using them. One was even stolen, so I suppose that makes them quite desirable.Construction: The retractable tip is just perfect. It has a slight springiness to it that not only cushions the writing/drawing experience, but also helps avoid lead breakages, although the modern hi-poly' refills are pretty good in their own right. Made principally of plastic and aluminium, it is light yet very robust. The combination of a knurled section and rubber grip is perfect - no readjustment or sweaty finger problems. There are no fancy gears that turn the lead around (as advertised by other products) neither have I ever thought to myself that I need one of those - one less unnecessary mechanism that can go wrong = minimalism = long-lasting = happy owner.Use: Always works well, very easy to carry around (very light). Solid enough construction to withstand severe punishment - mine has been submerged in water for ~3 days (flood while I was away) & dropped from a height of over 10m (~30ft) - accidentally dropped in the space between staircase - which obliterated the lead refills inside but the pen works just fine. If it was the cheaper plastics varieties of mechanical pencils then they would not have survived. I'm also sure that some of the more expensive varieties will not be able to boast this. Even if it did stop working, replacing them is not going to be too painful. As testament to how well these have worked, I now have 3 varieties of these that take different refill sizes, as well as a spare 0.5mm as my all-rounder when I have to jot down or explain anything on the go. The oldest one is pushing a decade in age and looks/works like new. [For the astute fans out there: yes, they did make minor changes in their construction over the years, but not to any detriment]Conclusion: I have never been let down, only pleasantly surprised. I would highly recommend this over any other product I have tried (including comparisons against other brands that are >4x more expensive). A fantastic product that offers excellent value and many years of great service. This product has never disappointed me and I'm certain that most will agree once they have had the pleasure of using it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 100% would recommend *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 4 September 2026* Would really recommend this mechanical pencil!It’s great for sketching and makes you feel professional lmaoAlso great if you press too hard on your paper as it teaches you to press lightly, so I found that great as I get pain from other normal pencils!And to reload the graphite into it, you simply hold down the pen clicker on the top and slide the graphite in all the way :)Thought I’d say that incase anyone is struggling to work out how to reload it lolAnd again, to put all the pencil that you’ve ejected out to make it longer back in, you simply push on the clip on the side and it all goes in :)Enjoy! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I adore this pencil. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 13 December 2023* Since buying this mechanical pencil I haven't picked up a normal pencil.The mechanical pencil is easy to use, the top of the barrel where the lead is, goes back into the pencil after use to protect it. The eraser is great, and is replaceable, as is the lead. And for the price point this pencil is ten times better than any other one I've tried.I love the solid, weighty feel it has, and how if you drop it, the lead doesn't break. I love how comfortable it is to hold in my hand, even after hours of holding it. I also love the thickness of the lead and how it gives a soft, fine line when written with. I also use it for drawing outlines before I paint in watercolour or acrylics.This is such a wonderful mechanical pencil in every way and I have now bought another one from the same merchant and intend to buy more in different sizes in the future. I highly recommend this device. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pentel Graph Gear 1000 Mechanical Drafting Pencil 0.7mm Blue (PG1017) - Pentel® Super Hi-Polymer® Leads, 0.7 mm, Medium, HB, 30 Leads Per Tube, Pack Of 3 Tubes - Pentel Refill Eraser for Mechanical Pencils, 3 Tubes Per Pack, 4 Erasers Per Tube --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/49197042-pentel-graph-gear-1000-mechanical-drafting-pencil-0-7mm-blue](https://www.desertcart.be/products/49197042-pentel-graph-gear-1000-mechanical-drafting-pencil-0-7mm-blue) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-10-26*
