Rite in the Rain 1.3mm 2B Mechanical Pencil Lead Refills, 12 Pack

Overview of the Rite in the Rain Mechanical Pencil Lead Refill | 13BR

The Rite in the Rain Mechanical Pencil Lead Refill 13BR gives you 12 dark 2B leads, each 1.3mm thick and 4.72 inches long. It is the factory refill for Rite in the Rain No. 13 Clicker and No. 15 Work-Ready mechanical pencils.

You are halfway through a report on a wet roadside when the last lead runs out. A spare 13BR tube in your bag or vehicle ends that problem. Patrol officers, soldiers, and field crews keep one on hand so their pencils never go empty.

Why 1.3mm 2B Lead

• Thick 1.3mm diameter resists snapping when you press hard or write on your knee.
• Soft, dark 2B grade lays down a bold line with light pressure.
• Extra-long 4.72 inch leads mean fewer reloads during a long shift.

Built for Field Notes

Rite in the Rain calls this work-ready lead: precise enough for small handwriting and sturdy enough for job sites, patrol cars, and training ranges.

Key Features

• Bold marking: Dark 2B lead writes clearly with minimal pressure, even on all-weather paper.
• Break resistant: The 1.3mm diameter stands up to field use better than fine 0.5mm or 0.7mm leads.
• Long leads: Each lead measures 4.72 inches (120mm), so one lead lasts through pages of notes.
• Exact fit: Made for Rite in the Rain No. 13 and No. 15 mechanical pencils.
• Easy loading: Rite in the Rain says you simply drop a single lead into the shaft under the eraser.
• Protected storage: The capped storage tube keeps spare leads from breaking in a pocket, pouch, or glove box.
• Value pack: 12 leads per tube.
