Mechanical pencil
A mechanical pencil or a propelling pencil is a pencil with a replaceable and mechanically extendable solid pigment core called a lead. The lead is not bonded to the outer casing and can be extended as its point is worn away. The lead is often made of graphite or a solid pigment. Mechanical pencils are used to provide lines of constant thickness without sharpening in technical drawing and writing. They have also been used for fine-art drawing. Mechanical pencils were first used in the 18th century with many designs patented in the 19th and 20th centuries.
