Faber Castell Pencil – 3B

What are Faber-Castell pencils?

Founded in 1761, Faber-Castell is the world’s oldest pencil manufacturer. 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 among 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 and produce lighter lines, while “B” pencils are softer and produce darker lines. “F” and “HB” pencils are in the middle.The HB – Faber-Castell pencil has a lead that is a mix between soft and hard; we can say it’s the 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 a lead made with more clay mixed with graphite is a more resistant pencil. They are differentiated, on the one hand, by the letters HandB, and on the other hand by a number from 1 to 4, with 4 being the hardest. There can also be combinations of letters: HH, for example, refers to a very hard lead.
