Tombow MONO eraser PE01 — Japan's benchmark plastic eraser, 17 x 11 x 43 mm (White).
About this product
The Tombow MONO eraser is the standard by which Japanese erasers are judged — the blue, white and black striped sleeve is one of the most recognizable objects in Japanese stationery. This is the PE01 size, a high-performance plastic eraser for office and drafting work measuring 17 mm wide, 11 mm thick and 43 mm long and weighing 11 g, with a body of PVC resin and a sleeve made from recycled paper. It lifts graphite cleanly with light pressure and leaves the paper surface intact, and the shavings gather into cohesive crumbs rather than scattering. The black version uses the same eraser formulation as the familiar white one, so erasing performance and feel are identical, but grime does not show on the body, and the pale shavings stand out against the dark eraser so they are easier to spot and sweep up. The MONO eraser holds a Good Design Long Life Design Award, given in 2011. Made in Japan by Tombow.
How to use
- Peel the paper sleeve down as the eraser wears so the sleeve supports the block and stops it from cracking.
- Erase with light, short strokes rather than heavy scrubbing, which is what tears paper.
- Use a corner of the block for precise work on small marks and diagram detail.
- Sweep the crumbs off with a brush or the sleeve edge instead of your hand, which smudges the page.
- Rub the eraser on scrap paper to clean the working face when it picks up ink or heavy graphite.
FAQ
Is the black one different from the white one?
No. It uses the same eraser formulation, so erasing performance and feel are identical; the black body just does not show grime and makes the shavings easier to see.
What size is it?
The PE01 size, 17 mm wide, 11 mm thick and 43 mm long, weighing 11 g.
What is it made of?
A PVC resin eraser in a recycled paper sleeve.
Does it work on ink?
It is a plastic eraser for pencil. Ink and marker are not removed by it.
Why does it crack sometimes?
Keep the paper sleeve pushed up around the block and erase with light strokes; heavy pressure on an unsupported eraser is what snaps it.
🇵🇭 For Philippines customers
Philippine students and drafting classes go through erasers fast, and cheap ones smear graphite or tear the page instead of lifting it. The MONO PE01 is the Japanese classroom standard: it lifts pencil cleanly under light pressure, leaves the paper intact, and the crumbs hold together instead of scattering across your notes in a humid room.
Peel the recycled-paper sleeve down as the block wears, erase in short light strokes, use a corner for fine work, and brush the crumbs away rather than wiping with your hand. Choose the classic White or the Black body, which hides grime and shows its crumbs clearly.
