## Summary description

Caran d\`Arche Fixpencil is a mechanical pencil with a 2 mm lead diameter and B hardness suitable for drawing and writing. The pencil has a hexagonal shape for comfortable grip and precise control. Supplied as a single piece from Switzerland, it fits tasks requiring a thicker refillable lead — sketches, technical drawing and everyday note-taking.

## Long description

The Caran d'Arche Fixpencil 2 mm B is a refillable mechanical pencil designed for drawing, sketching and precise writing. Featuring a robust 2 mm lead in B hardness, this single-piece instrument delivers a softer, darker line suitable for shading and expressive strokes as well as clear handwriting. The hexagonal body provides a secure, comfortable grip and prevents rolling on flat surfaces. Finished in monochrome black as part of the Black Edition, the pencil combines functional geometry with a restrained, timeless appearance.
Advantages
The Fixpencil's 2 mm lead offers a balance between strength and malleability, allowing controlled pressure for varied line thickness and smooth shading. The hexagonal profile enhances handling during extended use and improves positional control for technical and freehand work. As a refillable mechanical model, it reduces waste compared with disposable alternatives and ensures long-term usability when paired with compatible thicker leads. The single-piece construction contributes to durability and straightforward maintenance.
Suitable for
Sketching and tonal studies
Technical drawing and drafting with expressive line work
Everyday note-taking and annotations
Art classes and studio work requiring thicker leads
Key specifications
Lead diameter: 2 mm
Lead hardness: B (soft, darker line)
Body shape: hexagonal for enhanced grip
Material: metal alloy construction (single-piece body)
Finish: monochrome black (Black Edition)
Origin: manufactured in Switzerland
How to use
Hold the pencil in a natural writing grip, using the hexagonal sides to maintain orientation and control. Advance lead as needed according to the pencil's mechanism and replace worn or broken leads with compatible 2 mm leads of the chosen hardness. For drawing, vary pressure and angle to obtain thicker strokes or delicate lines; for writing, maintain a moderate pressure for consistent ink-free marks. Store the pencil horizontally or with the tip protected to avoid accidental breakage of the exposed lead.
Usage recommendations
Use quality 2 mm leads in B hardness for optimal tonal range; switch to firmer or softer grades depending on project needs. Keep an eraser and a lead pointer suitable for 2 mm leads for shaping and sharpening. For long-term preservation of the monochrome finish, avoid abrasive surfaces and store the instrument in a case when not in use.
