Product Description
Milwaukee Mechanical Pencil Replacement Lead, Color (10-Piece)
Model Number: 48-22-3303
The Milwaukee 48-22-3303 Mechanical Pencil Replacement Lead, Color is a 10-piece refill pack of high-visibility marking lead designed to pair with the Milwaukee 48-22-3301 Mechanical Pencil for enhanced jobsite marking on a wide range of materials. Unlike the standard graphite-only 48-22-3302 refill pack, the 48-22-3303 includes a mix of three lead colors: Milwaukee Red, Milwaukee Yellow, and standard Graphite. This three-color system gives tradespeople the ability to color-code marks on the jobsite for different purposes, which is the kind of small workflow improvement that adds up to real productivity gains across the workday. Framing carpenters, finish carpenters, electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors all benefit from being able to differentiate cut lines from layout marks, structural reference points from temporary marks, or critical safety zones from informational marks just by switching to a different colored lead in the pencil.
The color leads are engineered specifically for jobsite use, not office or art applications. Each lead is built to deliver bold, precise markings on most jobsite materials including dimensional lumber, OSB, plywood, drywall, metal, plastic, painted surfaces, and most other common construction materials. The Red lead is highly visible on light wood and most painted surfaces. The Yellow lead is highly visible on dark materials, metal, and pressure-treated lumber where graphite marks tend to disappear. The Graphite leads provide the standard pencil marking option for general layout work where a precise dark line is most useful. Three of each color (mix of Red, Yellow, and Graphite) gives the operator a balanced supply across all three marking applications without needing to buy separate refill packs.
The 48-22-3303 is designed to fit directly into the Milwaukee 48-22-3301 Mechanical Pencil, which is the jobsite mechanical pencil with integrated sharpener built into the sheath. The 2.8mm lead diameter is significantly thicker than the standard 0.5mm or 0.7mm lead used in office mechanical pencils, which means the leads are much less prone to snapping on the porous, rough surfaces of dimensional lumber, masonry, and other jobsite materials. For tradespeople who only need standard graphite marking without the color options, the Milwaukee 48-22-3302 Mechanical Pencil Replacement Lead - Graphite 10-piece pack is a lower-cost alternative sold separately. Both refill packs are compatible with the same Milwaukee 48-22-3301 Mechanical Pencil, so the operator can mix and match refills based on the marking needs of the current project. Since lead refills are considered consumable parts, the 48-22-3303 is sold without a warranty.
