Drawing and Tracing Paper SMLT A4 10 Sheets 160 g/m²

SMLT A4 drawing and tracing paper, pack of 10 sheets at 160 g/m², offers a medium-weight surface suitable for sketching, tracing and light marker or pencil work. The A4 format matches standard templates and most home printers, allowing easy pattern transfer and integration with printed guides. The 160 g/m² weight gives improved opacity and stiffness compared with lightweight tracing papers, reducing show-through and making sheets easier to handle during drafting and craft projects.

Advantages

The medium 160 g/m² weight balances flexibility and durability, providing a stable working surface for pencils, ink pens and alcohol markers with lower risk of tearing. Standard A4 size ensures compatibility with templates, printers and cutting tools, simplifying workflow for pattern transfer and curriculum tasks. Sheets are thin enough for effective tracing yet sufficiently opaque to minimize visible marks from the reverse side, helping achieve cleaner tracing and layered work.

Suitable for

• Sketching and preliminary drawing
• Tracing patterns and templates
• Light marker and pen illustrations
• Transfer of sewing and craft patterns
• School art projects and design exercises

How to use

Place the tracing paper over the original image or template and secure edges with low-tack tape to prevent shifting. Use a sharpened pencil, fine liner or light marker to transfer lines; apply light, even pressure when tracing to avoid tearing. For pattern transfer to fabric, align the traced pattern with the material and use suitable transfer methods such as tracing wheel, carbon paper or re-tracing with a washable fabric marker. When printing guides, feed single sheets into the printer tray to avoid jams and ensure correct orientation for accurate registration.

Usage recommendations

Store sheets flat in a dry environment to prevent curling. For best results with markers, test on a spare sheet to check for bleed-through. When using wet media or heavy ink, place a protective backing sheet beneath to prevent transfer to work surfaces.
