Specifications Brand: PILOT Country of Brand Origin: Japan Model: Kuru Toga Advance M3-559 / M5-559 / M7-559 Size: L 145 mm (5.7 inch) Weight: 17g (0.6oz) Pen Nib Size: 0.03 / 0.05 / 0.07mm Q&A What is the difference between the Kuru Toga Standard and the Advance model? The W-Speed engine is the defining factor! While the standard model rotates the lead every 40 strokes, the Advance model rotates every 20 strokes, meaning the lead stays sharp even when writing in cursive or English scripts with fewer pencil lifts. Additionally, the Advance features a sliding lead sleeve and more metal components for a more premium, durable feel than the standard version⚙️. Why does the pencil tip feel a bit "mushy" or springy when I write? That sensation is the Kuru Toga rotation mechanism in action! As you apply pressure, the internal clutch moves up and down to engage the gears that turn the lead. This slight vertical "play" is a normal part of the rotating lead mechanical pencil design and is what prevents the lead from developing a chiseled edge, resulting in a more consistent line weight across your entire document📐. How do I fully retract the lead sleeve to protect it while carrying? It is a simple trick for portability! While holding the pencil, click and hold the top button down, then gently press the metal lead pipe against a hard surface or your finger until it slides fully into the body. Once retracted, you can release the button. This lead protection mechanical pencil feature ensures your tip won't get damaged or poke holes in your clothing while you're on the go🏃.
