Mitsubishi Pencil - Mechanical Pencil - Advance - Lime Green - M55591P-5
■Features a mechanism for writing beautifully.
For junior high and high school students who use mechanical pencils daily for studying, the ability to write beautifully is an important feature they look for in a pencil. The Advance features a mechanism that enables beautiful writing.
1) The mechanism rotates the lead at twice the speed, allowing you to continue writing beautifully with consistent darkness and thickness.
The Kurutoga Engine, the automatic lead rotation mechanism in the Kurutoga Standard Model, uses a 40-tooth gear to rotate the lead once every 40 strokes. The automatic lead rotation mechanism in the “Advance” uses a “W-Speed Engine” with a 20-tooth gear that rotates twice as fast, completing one full rotation of the lead after 20 strokes. This gear modification allows the automatic lead rotation mechanism to maintain a line width that is approximately 12% thinner for HB and 17% thinner for 2B. (When using the same 0.5mm lead) Even with characters that have fewer strokes and longer single lines (like kana or English letters), where the lead tip tends to wear unevenly in regular sharpeners without rotation, it can produce uniform lines. Furthermore, when using soft, dark-writing leads like 2B, it produces clear, beautiful characters without smudging, compared to regular sharpeners. Furthermore, the mark indicating the automatic lead rotation mechanism inside the sharpener has been redesigned as the “W Speed Engine” mark to distinguish it clearly from the “Kurutoga Engine” mark. 2) Precisely machined parts suppress Kurutoga's characteristic tip vibration, ensuring stable writing feel. The automatic lead rotation mechanism rotates the lead with each stroke, causing the gears to move up and down each time the lead tip lifts from the paper. By using a precision-machined metal part for the tip ferrule, one of the tip components, vibration is suppressed, resulting in a stable writing feel. 3) Equipped with a lead breakage prevention mechanism, the lead is less likely to break, allowing for focused writing. The slide pipe enables writing without extending the lead tip from the tip pipe, preventing lead breakage during writing. Optimized shape and machining allow writing without compromising feel, even when the tip is retracted.
The slide pipe moves in tandem with the lead, allowing continuous writing for extended periods until the pipe shortens with a single click.
This makes it ideal for scenarios requiring sustained concentration, like tests or lectures.
Brand Name: Mitsubishi Pencil
Material: Plastic
Consistent line weight and thickness. Write beautifully.
Compared to the conventional Kurutoga requiring 40 strokes per rotation, the Advance completes one rotation in just 20 strokes.
Features a slide pipe that allows writing without extending the lead from the tip to prevent lead breakage.
The “Lead Break Prevention” feature is effective only when the lead is not extended from the tip.
