HB hardness is a universal standard, sitting perfectly between hard (H) and soft (B) lead types. These CENTRUM leads provide:

The 60 mm length is a standard format, making these leads compatible with almost all 0.7 mm mechanical pencils on the market. The compact box with a convenient dispenser ensures the leads won't spill in your bag or drawer.
