The journey of an HB Wooden Pencil core begins far underground. Naturally occurring graphite, mined primarily in China, Sri Lanka, and Brazil, is far from pure. It contains impurities like silica and iron. For the smooth, consistent performance demanded by the HB Wooden Pencil, this raw material undergoes rigorous purification. Milled into a fine powder, the graphite is treated chemically or thermally to remove contaminants, resulting in a product exceeding 90% carbon purity. This high purity is non-negotiable for the HB Wooden Pencil; it ensures minimal grittiness and maximum blackness potential.

Pure graphite alone is too soft and brittle for practical use in an HB Wooden Pencil. Enter kaolin clay—the critical partner. This fine, white clay, often sourced from specific deposits known for their plasticity and firing characteristics, acts as both a binder and a hardness regulator. The ratio of graphite to clay is the single most crucial factor determining the grade stamped on an HB Wooden Pencil.
