Technical Drawing Block A4 10K 170 g/m² Strigo

Strigo Technical Drawing Block A4 10K 170 g/m² is a compact pad of mid-weight drawing paper designed for technical sketches, drafting, tracing and presentation. The block contains 10 A4 sheets with a surface suitable for graphite pencils, technical pens and fine markers. The 170 g/m² weight provides more stiffness than standard copy paper, reducing show-through and offering a stable surface for precise lines and measured work.

Advantages

The paper weight of 170 g/m² balances stiffness and flexibility, making sheets easy to handle while remaining flat during drafting and tracing. Its smooth but toothy surface accepts pencil leads and ink without excessive feathering, supporting both delicate technical lines and marker strokes. The compact 10-sheet A4 format offers portability for students, designers and fieldwork while providing a presentable surface for portfolios or project submissions.

Suitable for

• Technical sketches and drafting
• Tracer work and overlays
• Presentation of finished drawings and layouts
• Student projects, coursework and study
• On-site field notes and measured sketches

Key specifications

• Sheet format: A4 (210 × 297 mm)
• Number of sheets: 10
• Paper weight: 170 g/m²
• Surface: smooth with slight tooth suitable for pencil, pen and marker
• Binding: top-bound drawing block style for easy sheet removal

How to use

Work on a flat, stable surface to take full advantage of the 170 g/m² stiffness. Use graphite pencils (HB–2B) for precise technical lines and harder grades for fine details; technical pens and fine markers produce clear ink lines with minimal bleed on this paper. To trace, place the original under a sheet and secure edges with light tape or clips to avoid shifting. Remove sheets by gently separating at the top binding to preserve the remaining pages.

Usage recommendations

For best results, pair the block with a straightedge or drawing board for measured work. Avoid heavy ink saturation and alcohol-based markers if ink bleed-through is a concern; test marker types on a corner sheet before full use. Store the block flat and away from moisture to maintain paper flatness and dimensional stability.
