You’ll see graphite leads in various hardnesses, colored leads, and specialty packs for mechanical pencils, all packaged in plastic or metal tins.

Choose leads based on hardness (HB, 2B, etc.) for the darkness and softness you need. Colored leads are great for art projects, while standard graphite works for writing and drafting. Make sure the lead diameter matches your pencil-most are 0.5 mm or 0.7 mm.

Look for sealed packaging to keep leads from breaking, and consider bulk packs if you use them frequently. Some kits include erasers or extra blanks, which can be handy for workshops or classrooms.
