Description
⬛🖊️ Mars® Lumograph® 100 8B – Most intense blacks & stable lead strength
Professional drawing pencil for maximum darkening and controlled force application
The STAEDTLER Mars® Lumograph® 100 in 8B grade marks the limit of what is possible: a highly concentrated lead paste creates glossy streaks, intense black tones, and a wide range of dark gray shades. Thanks to a lead diameter of approx. 3.6 mm, this pencil works with a compact dimension for even output and high resistance to abrasion. The break-resistant graphite construction, paired with hard-glued stabilization, ensures that even strong pressure does not cause any loss of continuity—ideal for professional sketching and time-consuming rendering processes.
✨ Product features
- ✔️ Extreme 8B grade for deepest black and iridescent surface effects.
- ✔️ Thick lead dimension with approx. 3.6 mm Ø for voluminous coverage and long service life.
- ✔️ Break-resistant construction through specialized gluing resists strong pencil pressure.
- ✔️ PEFC-certified wood casing for sustainable production and optimal grip.
🎨 Creative design possibilities
Due to the unique formula, saturation and brilliance can be precisely controlled; the same application appears matte-saturated or reflects light depending on the lighting, simulating spatial depth. The 8B is excellent for expressive sketching, creating dramatic shadow cores, and dense hatching of complex structures.
- ✔️ Architectural visualization: Concentrated darkening of shadow zones and mass representations.
- ✔️ Technical drawing: Dense hatching patterns according to standard specifications for material descriptions.
- ✔️ Artistic graphics: Large-area applications, blending, and ink-replacement techniques.
🔥 Workmanship
For larger projects, the robust lead-to-wood integration guarantees reliable performance over many working hours. The thick core diameter prevents rapid shortening and enables consistent, recurring work on the same spot without loss of precision. Even with extensive use, the tool retains its shape and delivers consistent results from the draft to the finished detailed graphic.
👉 Note: The 8B grade represents the absolute end of the soft scale and completes the gap to fine hardnesses within the entire 24-grade Mars Lumograph range.

What are the delivery costs?
Delivery costs:
For packages with a value of up to 50.00 Swiss francs, a delivery fee of 4.90 Swiss francs applies.
For orders over 50.00 Swiss francs, delivery is free of charge for customers.
In June 2025, we adjusted the delivery costs from 7.90 Swiss francs to 4.90 Swiss francs.
👉 Why only 4.90 Swiss francs for delivery?
-
We want shipping costs to remain transparent and fair for our customers.
-
4.90 Swiss francs covers only a portion of the actual shipping and packaging costs – we cover the rest for you.
-
This keeps your shopping experience at Kidis Art straightforward, affordable, and fair.
Why is there a small-order surcharge?
For orders under 20.00 Swiss francs, we charge a small-order fee of 10.00 Swiss francs, which already includes shipping costs.
👉 Why is there a small-order fee?
-
Every order incurs fixed costs (packaging, processing, payment systems). In order to cover these fairly while still offering our products at low prices, a small-order fee is necessary for orders under 20.00 Swiss francs.
-
This ensures that we can continue to offer a diverse range of products in high quality without having to artificially increase product prices.
-
At the same time, we would like to avoid tiny orders where the shipping and processing costs would be higher than the value of the goods themselves.
How long will it take to receive my order?
The processing time for your order is generally 2–5 business days, including shipping time. During peak season (e.g., before holidays or during special promotions), it may occasionally take 1–2 days longer.
Kidis Art always strives to process and deliver your goods as quickly as possible so that you receive your order without a long wait.
Where do our products come from?
For paints and art supplies, our products come exclusively from Holland, where the highest quality standards and precision in manufacturing are a matter of course.
We source our craft materials primarily from Germany and France, and occasionally from China when special materials or designs are produced there that enrich our range.
Kidis Art places the greatest importance on quality, transparency, and safety. That is why we take great care to ensure that all products are traceable – from manufacturing to the ingredients used. This way, you can be sure that you are receiving only high-quality and tested materials for your creative projects.
