6B blacklead pencils made for shading work
Zart Basics Blacklead Pencils 6B Pack of 20, supplier code PN050-6B, is a single grade pack of 20 blacklead pencils for general classroom and art room use.
The Creative School Supply Company makes Zart Basics blacklead pencils in four single grades, sold in packs of 20. It describes the 6B grade as great for shading. For comparison, the supplier calls HB ideal for line work, stippling and writing, 2B a soft drawing pencil, and 4B softer and darker than 2B. The supplier states the pencils are made from recycled and reclaimed wood.
A single grade pack keeps every pencil in the box the same, so a class working on tonal studies has matching 6B pencils throughout. Teachers can add HB, 2B or 4B packs from the same range when a lesson calls for a spread of grades.
Sharpeners and erasers round out a drawing kit. The HB, 2B and 4B packs hold 20 pencils each. Browse sketch pencils, artist pencils, the drawing supplies range and the full Zart catalogue.
