Troubleshooting
Pencil lead breaks frequently during sharpening.
Ensure you are using a quality sharpener. Do not force the pencil into the sharpener. Try sharpening at a slower, steady pace.
Eraser tip is not erasing effectively.
The eraser may be worn down. Sharpen the pencil to expose a fresh portion of the lead and eraser. For stubborn marks, a dedicated eraser might be needed.
Wood casing feels rough or splintered.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The STAEDTLER Norica pencils require no setup. They come pre-sharpened or ready to be sharpened.
Sharpening: For optimal results, use a high-quality manual or electric pencil sharpener. Ensure the sharpener is clean and in good working condition to avoid lead breakage. A 2mm lead sharpener is recommended.
Compatibility: These pencils are compatible with standard erasers and rulers. The HB lead is suitable for most paper types and digital scanning applications.
Care: Store pencils in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep them in a pencil case or container to protect the tips and erasers from damage. Clean the integrated eraser periodically with a soft brush if it accumulates debris, though it is designed for easy wear and replacement through sharpening.
