How erasers work

Pencil graphite does not stain paper – it simply sits on top of it. Erasers are made of soft, sticky material, such as rubber, vinyl, or plastic. When you rub an eraser over the graphite, the material grips the loose particles and lifts them away, leaving the paper clean.

Types of erasers

You will come across many types of erasers, and each is designed for specific tasks, whether you’re writing, sketching, or working on a detailed drawing. The common types include:
  • Rubber erasers: These are your classic pink or coloured erasers, perfect for rubbing out everyday pencil marks. For example, the red end of the popular Eberhard Faber eraser is rubber, ideal for removing graphite.
  • Vinyl (or plastic) erasers: These erasers are typically white, firm, and are very effective for clean and precise erasing. Staedtler Mars erasers and Faber-Castell erasers are commonly made of vinyl or plastic.
  • Kneaded erasers: Soft, stretchy erasers that you can mold; these erasers are great for art and shading and can even erase charcoal and pastels! Faber-Castell offers some high-quality kneadable erasers, which come in their own resealable plastic box.
  • Gum erasers: Erasers made of gum are softer and crumbly, meaning they’re gentle on delicate paper.
  • Electric erasers: Many people use motorised erasers for finer details or to add highlights when drawing.
  • Ink erasers: Some chemical or abrasive erasers can remove certain types of ink. The blue side of the well-known Eberhard Faber eraser will remove ink markings; however, it is not the gentlest with your paper!

With so many options available, it’s easy to find an eraser that suits your needs, from everyday writing to precision artwork. Choosing the right type can make your work cleaner, easier, and more enjoyable. Place your eraser order now!

Common Questions

Why do erasers leave crumbs?

As an eraser works, small pieces break off with the removed graphite. This helps to prevent smudging and to keep the paper clean. Order erasers from 123ink.ie now.

What’s the difference between vinyl, rubber and kneaded erasers?

Rubber erasers are ideal for everyday use, vinyl erasers erase cleanly and precisely, and kneaded erasers are soft, moldable and ideal for art. You can purchase these erasers at 123ink.ie.

Can erasers remove ink?

Regular erasers cannot remove ink. Ink erasers, which are abrasive, are designed to remove ink. Select erasers from our wide range at 123ink.ie.
