Rotring Mechanical Pencil, Graphite 0.5 mm

Rotring Mechanical Pencil, Graphite 0.5 mm.

The rOtring Tikky is a mechanical pencil built for drafting rather than writing — a fixed metal guide sleeve around the lead so it does not wobble against a ruler or a template edge.

That sleeve is why draughtsmen choose this shape: it lets the lead reach right into the corner of a stencil and keeps the line the same distance from the straightedge every time. The lead advances a set amount per click, so the line width stays constant without sharpening.

• Fixed metal guide sleeve — works against rulers and stencils
• Constant line width, no sharpening
• Refillable with standard leads of the same diameter
