Recently I have been using the 0.5 2B Pilot mechanical pencil while using the Neox Graphite Pencil Lead (2B), for the lead.
After using it for 2-3 months, the bottom part of the mechanical pencil comes off violently and suddenly while writing, cracking the grooves and I am unable to assemble them back. I do not have a habit of unscrewing the grooves at all while I’m using my mechanical pencil and I think this problem of the pencil tip flying off could become dangerous for kids or anyone who are at the wrong place at the wrong time. Would like to ask if anyone encountered a similar situation as me and how did you prevent the problem from happening with any mechanical pencil.
