Carpenter Pencil NEO tools 13-800 240mm HB — carpenter's marking pencil, flat wooden lead

NEO tools 13-800 is a 240 mm flat wooden carpenter pencil with HB lead designed for marking and layout in carpentry, construction and workshop environments. The elongated flat body resists rolling on work surfaces and gives a broad, durable line suitable for use on wood, drywall, concrete blocks and other common building materials. The pencil’s profile and HB core balance visibility and erasability, making it practical for transferring measurements, scribing cut lines and general site marking.

Advantages

The flat wooden body prevents the pencil from rolling off benches or roofs and provides improved grip when held between the fingers. The 240 mm length offers extended reach and comfortable handling while working on larger elements. The HB lead produces a clearly visible line that withstands moderate abrasion but can still be erased or sanded off when necessary. The pencil is easy to sharpen using a blade or standard carpenter pencil sharpener and is robust enough for on-site use.

Suitable for

• Marking and layout on timber, plywood and boards
• Drawing cut lines on drywall and plasterboard
• Transferring measurements on construction sites
• General workshop and joinery marking tasks

Key specifications

• Length: 240 mm
• Lead grade: HB
• Body shape: flat (prevents rolling)
• Material: wooden casing with graphite core
• Line type: broad, durable marking line

How to use

Select the pencil for the required marking task; hold it with the flat face against the workpiece for stable lines or on edge for finer scribing. Sharpen with a carpenter pencil sharpener or utility knife to the preferred tip width. Mark surfaces by running the pencil firmly along straightedges, squares or templates for accurate layout lines. When transferring measurements, keep the pencil perpendicular to the surface for consistent line thickness.

Usage recommendations

Store the pencil in a dry place to avoid swelling of the wooden body. For the longest service life, carry a spare and a sharpener on-site; use an angled edge or straightedge when precise lines are required. For removal, sand or plane the marked area or erase light lines where appropriate.
