Castell 9000 HB Graphite Pencil, Faber-Castell
Castell 9000 HB Graphite Pencil: a classic since 1905.
Easily recognised by its dark green hexagonal body and gold lettering, the Castell 9000 is one of the most widely used pencils worldwide. Created in 1905, it remains the standard graphite pencil for artists over a century later. You’ll find it in studios, art schools and professional kits. The Castell 9000 graphite lays down a dense, non-reflective mark. Your greys stay clear, your shading even, and your drawing remains visible under all lighting conditions.
HB: the all-round hardness.
HB sits in the middle of the hardness scale: neither too hard nor too soft. It lets you:
- write with a clear, legible line;
- sketch and draw construction lines that erase easily;
- draw every day, with enough material to shade without smudging.
If you only need one pencil, this is it.
A lead that won’t break:
The Castell 9000’s key feature is its SV secure bonding process, which fixes the lead to the wood along its entire length. This makes it resistant to drops and prevents it from crumbling when sharpened. No more broken leads one after another in the sharpener.
Used daily, this is what makes the difference between a pencil that lasts and one that gets wasted.
Composition: Cedar wood from sustainably managed forests and water-based ecological varnish, solvent-free.
