Mistral pencil kit lead compatibility

[reiddo]

Hi guys, can anyone tell me if the 0.5mm Mistral pencil kit can be changed to a 0.7mm with a new insert from Beaufort Ink? I made one for someone with 0.5mm to use for crosswords but he keeps breaking the lead. Rather than buy a new pencil to replace it I'd rather buy the 0.7mm pencil insert for £2.55 and send him that.

Hope my question makes sense.

Thanks
Dougie

Hi Dougie,
Both can be used in the same pencil body.

Just to confirm from the horse's mouth, yes, you can just swap over the pencil insert

Be interesting how you went with the change.
