This refillable and retractable pencil pack includes 40 vibrant pencils, designed for ambidextrous comfort and long-lasting use. As the #1 selling mechanical pencil brand in the U.S., BIC delivers dependable quality and value ideal for professionals, students, and office environments. ## Description When the school supply list comes out, BIC Xtra Smooth Mechanical Pencils are the smart choice with each pencil containing the same amount of lead as 2.5 wood pencils. Built for students from middle school through college, this 40-count bulk pack is sized for the full school year: class note-taking, homework at the kitchen table, essay writing, math problems, and standardized tests. The 0.7 mm medium point writes smoothly and darkly, doesn't smudge for lefties or righties, and erases cleanly so finished assignments look neat. Refillable lead and erasers mean students can replace what runs out rather than buying a new pencil, making this pack go further through the semester. The retractable tip protects the lead between uses so pencils are always ready in a backpack or pencil case. Colorful Bright Edition barrels make it easy to spot these pencils in a crowded desk or supply drawer. This 40-count bulk pack is right-sized for a teacher stocking a classroom supply drawer or a parent getting ahead of the school year. The number one selling mechanical pencil brand in the United States.

You can buy more leads, but part of the reasoning here is they get lost stolen, given away so quickly it is good they are cheap. I used to use these for trim carpentry as I needed fine lines for accurate cuts. Lost or crushed was not that uncommon either. Different tools for different jobs. **Q: Can the eraser be replaced? I’m having a hard time finding them.** A: A regular cap eraser (for wooden pencils) works in a pinch. I have done it many times. **Q: Are replacement erasers available?** A: Please note that not all BIC Mechanical Pencils are considered refillable. All refillable BIC Mechanical Pencils are packaged with additional eraser/lead refills. If your pencils did not come with the additional eraser/lead refills, they are considered disposable and refills are not available. Currently the only "refillable" BIC Mechanical Pencils are: BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil. BIC Velocity Max Mechanical Pencil, BIC ReAction Mechanical Pencil, BIC Atlantis Mechanical Pencil Additional eraser refills are not sold separately at the present time.

Definitely a great buy! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pleasantly surprised with the quality *by A***. on March 17, 2026* I did not know what to expect with regard to the quality, because my experience with BIC's mechanical pencils has run the gamut from great to dismal. But the price was great for the quantity, and it was worth a try. I am happy to be pleasantly surprised. Especially, oddly enough, with the quality of the erasers, which actually erase! (not a given when it comes to disposable mechanical pencils...). Also, the pencils are easy to write with and the graphite doesn't break as easily as I feared it would. Happily used by school kids. I recommend. ## Frequently Bought Together - BIC Xtra-Smooth Mechanical Pencils with Erasers, Bright Edition Medium Point (0.7mm), 40-Count Pack, Bulk Mechanical Pencils for School or Office Supplies - BIC Brite Liner Highlighters, Chisel Tip, 5-Count Pack of Highlighters Assorted Colors, Ideal Highlighter Set for Organizing and Coloring - Mead Spiral Notebook, 6 Pack, 1 Subject, College Ruled Paper, 7-1/2" x 10-1/2", 70 Sheets per Notebook, Assorted Bright Colors (830050-ECM) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/247282873-bic-xtra-smooth-bright-edition-mechanical-pencils-0-7-mm](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/247282873-bic-xtra-smooth-bright-edition-mechanical-pencils-0-7-mm) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-12*
