{"product_id":"caran-dache-technograph-2-mm-leads-12-pack","title":"Caran d'Ache Technograph 2 mm leads 12-pack","description":"The Caran d'Ache Technograph 2mm refill leads are professional-grade replacement graphite leads for the Fixpencil 2mm clutch pencil and any standard 2mm lead holder. Each lead is formulated with high-density extra-pure refined Swiss graphite, delivering consistent, uniform line quality with exceptional break-resistance from first stroke to last. The 2mm format covers the full spectrum from ultra-hard technical precision through to soft expressive artistic drawing — nine grades in total, each optimized for a distinct set of applications. Twelve leads per pack, each 120mm long.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the hard end, 4H and 3H produce ultra-faint, pale silver guidelines ideal for engineering maps, master blueprints, and precision layout grids that need to remain nearly invisible under final inked work. 2H and H suit architectural drafting, technical cross-hatching, and geometric line work where a clean, smudge-free line is essential. F is a firm intermediate grade between HB and H — holding a sharp point over prolonged use, well suited for detailed script writing, bookkeeping, and fine-line structural layouts. HB is the universal balanced anchor, covering everyday writing, general note-taking, studio layout design, and foundational wireframes. Moving into the softer grades, B delivers a slightly richer, more fluid line than HB for figure studies and preliminary sketching. 2B is the go-to for traditional artistic drawing, portrait gradients, comic book shading, and bold dark contour work. 3B is the softest and darkest grade in the range — an extra-soft, charcoal-like lead for deep shadow rendering, rich tonal illustration, and loose gestural sketching where maximum blendability and tonal depth are the priority.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecifications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable grades: 4H, 3H, 2H, H, F, HB, B, 2B, 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead diameter: 2.0 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead length: 120 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePack contents: 12 leads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComposition: High-density extra-pure refined Swiss graphite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility: Caran d'Ache Fixpencil 2mm and all standard 2mm lead holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaging: Compact protective plastic storage box with sliding lid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Swiss Made, Geneva\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFAQ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhich grade should I choose?\u003c\/strong\u003e Hard grades (4H–2H) suit precision technical drafting and faint layout guidelines.
