What is "lead"?

Lead refers to the core material found in pencils. Despite the name, it does not contain actual lead but is made of a mixture of graphite and clay. The term "lead" originates from early misconceptions, as the material was thought to be lead. Pencils with different levels of hardness or softness are made by adjusting the ratio of graphite to clay. Softer leads create darker marks, while harder leads make lighter, finer lines.

Example

The lead in mechanical pencils is available in different diameters to suit various writing preferences.

When the lead in my pencil broke, I had to sharpen it to continue writing.
