Refillable with Penndel's Super High Polymer Lead and Z2-1 Eraser Review: 日常使い用に購入。グラフギア1000より「圧倒的」に書きやすい（重心バランスなど好みもある？）。国内向けと違うのは軸の色とノック部分に芯硬度表示切り替えがないこと。日常使いに硬度表示は不要、こちらのほうがデザイン的に勝ち。国内向けの倍の値段だが、もう一本買おうかな。 Review: Estoy estudiando japonés y escribo mucho, por eso compre tres lapiceros: el kuratoga, los graphgear 500 y 1000. De los tres, el graphgear 500 es el mejor. La kuratoga suena excelente que gire por si solo, pero la punta que tiene hace que escribir se sienta raro e incomodo. La graphgear 1000 es muy buena, tiene buen peso, de hecho es realmente pesada, toda la estrutura es de metal, puede ser muy buena para dibujar, pero para escribir olvidalo!! La graphgear 500 es excelente, tiene buen peso, el peso se centra en donde la agarras, la punta es muy buena, a diferencia de la 1000 y la kuratoga, la punta metalica del lapicero es fija, es decir, no es oculta ni gira. Por la forma de la estructura, cuando la punta de mina esta muy puntiaguada puedes rotar el lapiz sin problema, de verdad la recomiendo a comparación de las otras dos por: el peso, la distribucion del peso (la 1000 es pesada en su totalidad, no solo por la punta y el agarre), el precio, la estructura, el agarre metálico es muy bueno. ## Features - GraphGear 500 pencils, refillable, 0.5 mm, Black ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0006HXQXA | | Additional Features | Drafting | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Animal Theme | Animal Themed | | Body Shape | Round | | Brand Name | Pentel | | Closure Type | Twist | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (7,354) | | Drill Point | Fine | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00072512185377 | | Grip Type | Knurled | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Hardness | HB | | Included Components | No | | Ink Base | Pigment | | Ink Color | Brown | | Item Diameter | 4 Millimeters | | Item Dimensions | 9 x 147 x 9 mm | | Item Weight | 17.53 Grams | | Line Size | 0.5 | | Manufacturer | Pentel | | Material Type | Polymer | | Model Name | GraphGear 500 | | Model Number | PG525A | | Pattern | Black | | Recommended Uses For Product | Home Center | | Style | black | | Subject Character | Black | | Theme | Drafting | | UPC | 072512185377 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Writing Instrument Form | Technical Pen | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** Pentel - **Color:** Black - **Ink Color:** Brown - **Writing Instrument Form:** Technical Pen ## Images ![GraphGear 500 Mechanical Drafting Pencil, 0.5 mm - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51yhTYJMKuL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Why is disco dead?** A: Disco is dead because the Kiss Army conducted a shock and awe campaign. It resulted in great losses on the disco side. It is not well known that General Donna Summer was actually severely injured in the war. The war continued through the decade of the 1970s. It was only when Laura Branigan finally surrendered to Gene and Paul at Madison Square Gardens in the early 1980s that the war concluded and rock briefly rained supreme. Historically the warring factions both suffered. After CBGBs took off and the California, Chicago, and Tampa punk scenes began to take foothold, the only true winners were the opportunistic punks. They successfully used the opportunity to own the ensuing decade under the supreme leadership the likes of Commander Henry Rollins and Viceroy Jello Biafra. Disco and rock faded in the1990s taking a backseat to a plethora of corporately driven invented music genres which gave way to the production of the largely commercialized crooner pop music receiving air in play today. **Q: where do I find the community?** A: You’re in a community right now **Q: Is the Graph Gear 1000's advantages worth the higher price (which pencil is worth more for it's value)?** A: the main difference is that the 1000 has a click out and retractable point and an aluminum body. the only thing that i think is a downside to the 1000 is that the clip is not removable because it is part of the click mechanismalso the clip is rather large and does not flow with the design well itlooks like it was added last min by pentel. the 500 has a plastic body but metal grip and nib. in short the 1000 is better if your going to be carrying it in your pocket but the 500 is better if you going to have it on a desk or pencil case. both erasers are the same they both come in .3 .5 .7 & .9 the 1000 has a lead indicator but over all i prefer to right with the 500 i prefer a pencil slightly heavier towards the writing tip. hope this helps. **Q: Is the knurled barrel metal or metallic?? Thanks** A: It's metal ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by 愛***家 on February 21, 2020* 日常使い用に購入。グラフギア1000より「圧倒的」に書きやすい（重心バランスなど好みもある？）。国内向けと違うのは軸の色とノック部分に芯硬度表示切り替えがないこと。日常使いに硬度表示は不要、こちらのほうがデザイン的に勝ち。国内向けの倍の値段だが、もう一本買おうかな。 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by H***G on March 24, 2019* Estoy estudiando japonés y escribo mucho, por eso compre tres lapiceros: el kuratoga, los graphgear 500 y 1000.

Metal parçaları fazla olan kalemlerde internet alışverişinde en fazla çizikli, vuruklu ürün satılmasından tedirgin olurum. Kalemim çiziksiz, sağlam bir şekilde geldi, memnun kaldım. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pentel GraphGear 500 Mechanical Drafting Pencil, (0.5mm), Fine Line, Black Barrel (PG525A) - Pentel Super Hi-Polymer Lead Refill 0.5mm Fine, HB, 30 Pieces of Lead (C15BPHB-K6) - Pentel GraphGear 1000 Mechanical Pencil, (0.5mm) Point Size, Black Barrel, 1 Each (PG1015A) --- ## 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.ec/products/725394439-graphgear-500-mechanical-drafting-pencil-0-5-mm](https://www.desertcart.ec/products/725394439-graphgear-500-mechanical-drafting-pencil-0-5-mm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Ecuador* *Store origin: EC* *Last updated: 2026-06-18*
