Astra Technical Drawing Paper A3 170g 10 Sheets White

Astra technical drawing paper in A3 format is a high-quality substrate designed for precision work and creative projects. With a weight of 170g/m², this paper provides a sturdy and reliable surface that maintains its integrity during detailed drafting or artistic application. Each pack contains 10 sheets of bright white paper, ensuring a clean background for technical illustrations, architectural sketches, and various art techniques.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this technical paper is its balanced surface texture, which is optimized for both graphite pencils and ink pens. The 170g/m² weight offers sufficient thickness to prevent buckling or bleeding when using markers or light washes, making it a versatile choice for professionals and students alike. Its durability ensures that lines remain crisp and clear, while the white finish provides excellent contrast for detailed technical drawings.

Suitable for

• Technical drafting and architectural sketching
• Art projects involving pencils, ink, and markers
• School assignments and professional design work
• Creating precise diagrams and illustrations

This paper may not be suitable for heavy-duty watercolor painting or techniques that require significant water saturation, as it is primarily designed for dry media and ink. Additionally, if you require a larger quantity for high-volume printing or mass production, a single pack of 10 sheets may not be the most cost-effective solution.

Key specifications

• Format: A3
• Weight: 170g/m²
• Color: White
• Quantity: 10 sheets
• Surface type: Smooth, suitable for ink and pencils

To achieve the best results, place the sheet on a flat, hard surface before beginning your work. When using ink or markers, allow sufficient drying time to prevent smudging. For pencil work, choose the appropriate lead hardness to match the texture of the paper, ensuring that your lines remain sharp and clean throughout the drawing process.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the A3 size meets your specific project requirements
• Ensure the 170g/m² weight is appropriate for your chosen drawing media
• Consider the number of sheets provided to ensure it covers your project scope

For optimal results, store the paper in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the quality and whiteness of the sheets over time.
