Paper Mate Clearpoint 0.7mm Mechanical Pencils, Color Block 12-Count — HB #2, Side-Click & Jumbo Eraser

Paper Mate Clearpoint Color Block mechanical pencils are refillable 0.7mm HB #2 writing tools with a side-click lead advance, comfortable textured grip, and a jumbo twist-up eraser — packaged in a 12-count set with vibrant color block barrels.

These Paper Mate Clearpoint pencils combine the smooth, consistent line of mechanical lead with the familiar feel of a pencil, upgraded by a side-click advance that lets you reload without changing your hold. The Color Block Edition adds contemporary, two-tone barrels that brighten classroom desks and office supplies. Each pencil includes a soft, textured grip to reduce hand fatigue and a large twist-up eraser to make quick corrections without tearing paper.

How does the side-click advance make everyday writing easier?

The side-click lead advance is built into the barrel so you can extend lead while keeping your writing grip steady. This design prevents interruptions when you’re taking notes, sketching, or filling out forms and avoids the fiddly top-click mechanism some users find awkward. It’s especially handy during timed tests or fast note-taking sessions.

• Advance lead without moving your fingers from the grip.
• Quieter and quicker than repeatedly removing caps or clicking the top.
• Less risk of breaking lead because you control extension precisely.

What makes these pencils comfortable for long writing or drawing sessions?

Clearpoint pencils feature a soft, textured rubber grip that improves hold and reduces slipping, helping maintain control during extended use. The balanced barrel weight mimics the feel of a pen, which many users find more comfortable than lighter mechanical pencils. The combination of grip and barrel shape supports steady handwriting and detailed sketching.

• Soft, textured grip for reduced hand strain.
• Ergonomic barrel profile for consistent control.
• Durable construction that feels solid in hand.

How easy is it to erase and maintain these pencils?

Each pencil includes a jumbo twist-up eraser that lifts cleanly for efficient corrections without removing or shredding the paper. When the eraser is depleted, the twist mechanism reveals fresh eraser and locks it in place for stable use. The pencils accept standard 0.7mm HB #2 leads, making refills straightforward and affordable.

• Large twist-up eraser for clean corrections.
• Simple lead refill compatibility with 0.7mm HB #2 lead.
• Durable eraser housing keeps residue contained.
