Reddit mentions: The best mechanical pencil eraser refills

I'd love to hear what other folks are using. Ideally, I'd like a case that can fit a total of 16-20 fountain pens, but hopefully with a smaller footprint. The 96-slot Global Art Leather Pencil Case is almost perfect... but they changed their design since I bought mine and they now have only one loop per slot instead of two. (I utilize both loops for smaller things, like pencil leads, wax stamps, etc.)

My current case contains the following items, but as you can see I'm just about out of room!

You might also want to look into erasers. The erasers on the kuru toga's are very small since they're hidden under the cap.

You could either buy a refill for the erasers or buy a block eraser...or both...both is good.

I bought a package of sakura color foam erasers. They'll make it look like you never wrote anything.

Or you could buy the refills.

Refill s for the pipe slide.

Refill c for the roulette

Doesn't really matter what you go with, but any of these 3 are better erasers than on any wooden #2 pencil you've ever written with.

These are allegedly the same as the erasers that came with it. Can't confirm though, I just bought a 12 pack of White Pearls when I got my 1000.

Unfortunately, nicer mechanical pencils tend to come with correspondingly worse erasers. You might consider something like a Pentel Clic if you're really in need of a easily controlled eraser?

Sé que amazon vende repuestos. Demás que aca venden.

I had one for a while, but have since lost it. I vaguely remember a similar issue. I think you're not removing the entire eraser contraption. This (in theory) is a replacement eraser, but it looks like that's not what you've pulled out.

Here's a product link.

I use some kind of eraser pen (Fractis BM2), maybe the refills match in diameter?


It is this one I think, there are refills available

Oh no, they're just the normal Faber Castell wood pencil eraser caps! Same on the Staedtler knockoff.

If you're gonna get the 171, don't get the 0.3 version. Mine has a problem where the eraser module doesn't fit snugly with the actual barrel of the pencil, and the wiggle of the lead tube causes the 0.3 lead to break. I don't know if that's just a manufacturing defect, but it seems like an issue with the actual design of the pencil.


If you really want 0.3, you can fix the problem by taking out the whole eraser module and putting in one of these Lamy erasers. However, this makes the pencil balance really weirdly. The threads also need some lubing if you want the snorkel to slide smoothly.
