DelGuard x Hello Kitty Product Features
1. The unique mechanism inside these mechanical pencils adjusts to the pressure and angle of your writing, protecting the lead and preventing it from breaking no matter how much pressure you apply. (DelGuard mechanical pencils are snap free with up to three clicks of lead, but four clicks or more might result in the lead breaking.)
2. The barrel of each pencil is decorated with a Hello Kitty design. There are six cute designs to choose from, and you can decide whether you want to give it your all with a 0.5 mm lead pencil or use a 0.3 mm lead pencil for compact and neat writing when there's not much space to fit in everything you need to jot down. The outlines of Hello Kitty's face are highlighted with gold and silver, giving these pens a luxurious look that's sure to please fans of this adorable cat.
3. DelGuard lead refills are ideal for DelGuard mechanical pencils, and DelGuard lead refills with a Hello Kitty design are a match made in heaven for DelGuard x Hello Kitty pencils! These unsnappable mechanical pencils are the perfect way to concentrate on work or school without any fear of broken lead breaking your concentration!
