Apsara Joi Mechanical Pencil | 0.7mm | Leads + Eraser | Colour May Vary - School

Write and draw with a steady 0.7mm line and no sharpening. The Apsara Joi mechanical pencil comes with a tube of 5 leads and an eraser, as listed on the pack, which also describes a 0.7mm lead for smooth, dark writing, a built-in eraser and an ergonomic grip. A mechanical pencil pushes out lead as you use it, so the line width stays the same for homework and diagrams.

Frequently Asked Questions

What lead size does this pencil take?
0.7mm leads; the pack includes 1 tube of 5 leads and an eraser.

How is this different from the Apsara Absolute mechanical pencil?
This Joi takes a thin 0.7mm lead for writing and comes with 5 leads and an eraser; the Absolute takes a thick 2.0mm lead for shading and comes with 3 leads.

Does it have an eraser?
Yes. The pack lists a built-in eraser, and a spare eraser comes in the pack.

Mechanical pencil or wooden pencil, which should I pick?
A mechanical pencil keeps one line width and never needs a pencil sharpener, but takes only its own lead size; a wooden pencil comes in many grades and sharpens to any point. Pick mechanical for school notes and diagrams, wooden for shading with different grades.
