Castell 9000, a true classic among pencils, was launched on the market in 1905 by Alexander Graf von Faber-Castell. The quality and fine gradation of hardness degrees have made it the preferred tool of artists and draftsmen alike. Its lead is completely glued to the wooden casing, providing effective protection against breakage. The Castell 9000 is available in 16 different hardness grades, making it the perfect pencil for all technical and artistic applications.
With a sealed graphite bond to resist point breakage, these pencils are uniquely formulated and precisely graded.
