Fit

Pencil diameter and shape: check the shaft, not the label

Measure the shaft rather than the point. Calipers give a more useful reading than a ruler; if using a ruler, treat it as a rough check. For a triangular, oval or irregular pencil, measure its widest point and check the exact profile named in the sharpener's instructions.

A maker-stated range is a screening limit, not a physical measurement of the opening or a fit test on your pencil. A multi-hole dial, “standard and jumbo” wording, or a picture of a pencil does not supply a millimeter range. Unknown fit stays unknown; do not force a pencil into a hole because another pencil of similar style fits.

Shaft fit and point preference are separate. Diameter answers whether a shaft falls within a stated size band; it does not say how sharp the point will be, whether a motor stops automatically, or which profile fits an opening.

Start with a documented graphite use claim

Black AFMAT PSC2BK's exact page names graphite and claims a 6.5–12 mm range. The PSC2 U.S. manual says suitable pencils must be under 12 mm, so the finder screen stops at 11.5 mm; no shaft profile or individual-pencil fit is established. Use the same-condition wood-cased graphite finder for the complete current result set.

Documented examples span different bands and configurations: Black PS29 and the combined PSA6 Black / PSA7 Blue record state 6–12 mm; Black PSB06 is narrower at 6–8.5 mm; Black and Red PSC2 pages claim 6.5–12 mm but the U.S. manual's strict under-12 mm wording keeps their numeric screen below 12; PSC4 and PSC5 variants use 6.5–10.5 mm; and PSC6 variants are screened to 6.5–11.5 mm for the same under-12 mm manual wording. Those are source-backed limits, not the same physical opening or a fit test of every finish.

Other selected graphite examples include Black PS09B and Blue PS09 (6–9.6 mm), Green PSY2GN and Red PSY2RD (separate products with a profile-list disagreement about oval), and Black PSY4BK / Red PSY4RD (the latter pages describe cordless operation despite a conflicting structured power field). For PSX5, suffixes matter: Black PSX5BKEW and Purple PSX5PREW have exact-model graphite evidence; Green PSX5GNEW names graphite on its own page; the PSX5/PSC8 manual caveat belongs to the linked manual, not every suffix. None of these bands establishes a named profile unless its exact source says so.

Selected exact-model assessments include PS09B / PS09, PS29, Black PSC4BK, Royal Blue PSC4BS, Purple PSC4PR, Red PSC4RD, Rose Red PSC4RR, Black PSC5BK, Blue PSC5BL, Green PSC5GN, Purple PSC5PR, Black PSC6BK, Blue PSC6BL, Cyan Blue PSC6CY, Green PSC6GN, Purple PSC6PR, Red PSC6RD, Rose Red PSC6RR, PSJ1BK, PSJ2BK, PSY2GN, PSY2RD, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PREW, PSX5GNEW, Red PSC2RD, Sky Blue PSC2BS and Black PSC2BK. The finder, not this example list, retains every same-condition match.

Black AFMAT PSB06 is documented for ordinary wood-cased graphite. Its 6–8.5 mm band is a maker's diameter screen; AFMAT's separate 8–25 mm figure describes point length, not shaft diameter. Its artist-use guidance cautions against ultra-soft colored cores, crayons and chalk. Read the PSB06 assessment and compare the full graphite finder.

Black AFMAT PSC2BK's exact page names graphite and claims 6.5–12 mm. The U.S. PSC2 manual's under-12 mm limit makes 11.5 mm the last half-step in the conservative screen; the exact page and manual name no shaft profile. Read the PSC2BK assessment.

Red AFMAT PSC2RD is a separate PSC2 configuration: its page names graphite and 6.5–12 mm pencils, while the family manual says suitable pencils must be under 12 mm. Its page's “different shapes” wording names no profiles. Check the PSC2RD assessment and the same-condition graphite finder.

Sky Blue AFMAT PSC2BS is separately named for graphite. Its exact page claims 6.5–12 mm, but the PSC2 manual's under-12 mm instruction keeps the conservative screen at 11.5 mm; that is not a fit test for a particular shaft. Read the PSC2BS assessment.

Purple AFMAT PSX5PREW is identified for graphite on its exact model-information page and has a maker-stated 7–11.5 mm range. AFMAT names no shaft profile and warns that pencils shorter than 2.9 inches may get stuck. Read the PSX5PREW review.

Black AFMAT PSC6BK is named for 2B/HB and graphite use. Its detailed page starts at 6.5 mm, while the linked PSC6 manual says under 12 mm; the conservative 6.5–11.5 mm screen is not an individual-pencil fit test. Read the PSC6BK review and use the graphite finder.

Purple AFMAT PSC5PR is a distinct corded graphite candidate; its exact page names graphite in a maker-stated 6.5–10.5 mm range. The sources do not establish a minimum pencil length or test an individual shaft. Read the PSC5PR review.

Green PSC5GN, Cyan PSC5CY and Blue PSC5BL are separate corded graphite configurations. Their exact pages name graphite within the maker-stated PSC5 6.5–10.5 mm band. Do not transfer facts between finishes; compare the same-condition graphite finder and the PSC5CY assessment.

Green AFMAT PSC6GN's exact page names wood-cased graphite. The linked PSC6 manual supports a cautious 6.5–11.5 mm screen, not a 12 mm fit guarantee. Read the PSC6GN review.

Black AFMAT PSC5BK is a separate corded graphite model. Its exact page and PSC5 U.S. manual name graphite within 6.5–10.5 mm; neither tests a particular pencil. Compare the same-condition graphite finder and the PSC5BK assessment.

Use the documented diameter band—not a dial label

Measure the widest part of the representative shaft. The numeric finder requires a model-specific range; a hole count, “jumbo” claim or a shape-specific width does not fill in an unstated round-diameter limit. It screens manufacturer claims and does not verify an individual pencil's fit, usable length or profile.

At 5.5 mm, no documented range matches: AFMAT PSA6/PSA7, PSD1BL, PSD3BK and PSD3RDB have maker-stated lower edges at 6 mm; unknown ranges remain unclassified. Check the 5.5 mm finder.

At 6 mm PSC2RD is below its 6.5 mm minimum; it first enters at 6.5 mm. Compare the 6 mm and 6.5 mm numeric-only finder cases.

At 6.5 mm, Black AFMAT PSC2BK is in the conservative numeric screen at 6.5 mm, the exact-page lower endpoint. Its page's 12 mm upper claim is narrowed by the U.S. manual at the other end; see the 6.5 mm finder.

Sky Blue AFMAT PSC2BS shares the conservative PSC2 documentary screen of 6.5–11.5 mm; its page claims 12 mm, but the manual says suitable pencils are under 12 mm. The exact numeric-only cases for 7 mm, 7.5 mm, 8 mm, 8.5 mm, 9 mm, 9.5 mm, 10 mm, 10.5 mm and 11 mm retain the same numeric condition while showing the complete applicable set.

Black AFMAT PSC2BK is in the conservative numeric screen at 11.5 mm, the highest half-step below the PSC2 U.S. manual's under-12 mm limit. Black AFMAT PSC2BK is excluded at 12 mm because the PSC2 U.S. manual says suitable pencils must be under 12 mm, despite the exact Black page's 12 mm claim. Compare the exact 11.5 mm and 12 mm cases.

At 12.5 mm, PS29 is above its maker-stated 12 mm maximum and is excluded from the numeric-only finder. Use the 12.5 mm finder; a result is a published-range screen, not a guarantee for a particular pencil.

AFMAT PSB06 has a maker-stated 6–8.5 mm shaft range; its separate 8–25 mm figure is point length, not diameter. The range does not establish a particular profile or individual-pencil fit. Read the PSB06 assessment.

At 8.5 mm, PSB06 is inside its stated range; 9 mm is the next out-of-range finder step, not a reason to force a larger pencil. Compare the 8.5 mm finder.

At 9 mm, PSB06 is above its stated 8.5 mm maximum and is not a numeric match. The corded PSA6 / PSA7 range is different; use the same-condition 9 mm finder.

Black AFMAT PSC2BK's exact page states 6.5–12 mm, but the U.S. PSC2 manual says suitable pencils must be under 12 mm. The conservative selectable screen therefore begins at 6.5 and ends at 11.5 mm; the maker's range does not test an individual shaft.

Sky Blue AFMAT PSC2BS shares that PSC2 screen: its page states 6.5–12 mm, while the U.S. manual's strict under-12 mm wording excludes 12 mm. Keep its exact finish and source limits distinct from Black PSC2BK and Red PSC2RD.

Sky Blue AFMAT PSC2BS is not included at 12 mm because the PSC2 manual says suitable pencils must be under 12 mm, despite the exact page's 12 mm claim.

Purple AFMAT PSX5PREW has a maker-stated 7–11.5 mm range: 7 and 11.5 mm are in the documentary screen; 6.5 and 12 mm are out. Its page names no shaft profiles and warns against pencils shorter than 2.9 inches. Compare the 7 mm, 11.5 mm and 12 mm cases.

Purple AFMAT PSX5PRET is a different model from PSX5PREW. Its exact page states 7–11.5 mm and mentions shapes without naming profiles; pencils shorter than 2.9 inches may get stuck. Treat those as maker limits, not fit tests, and compare the same 7 mm and 11.5 mm numeric cases.

Black AFMAT PSC6BK is outside the conservative numeric screen at 6 mm because its detailed page starts at 6.5 mm; the title's 6 mm lower label remains a conflict, not a fit test. Compare the 6 mm and 6.5 mm cases.

Purple PSC5PR's exact page and linked PSC5 manual state 6.5–10.5 mm: it enters at 6.5, remains through 10.5, and is outside at 6 and 11 mm. No source establishes a minimum pencil length. These are maker limits, not individual-pencil fit results; see the PSC5PR review.

Cyan PSC5CY, Green PSC5GN, Blue PSC5BL, Purple PSC5PR and Black PSC5BK are separate configurations in the PSC5 6.5–10.5 mm family band. Do not transfer a finish-specific claim to a sibling; the range is not measured fit. Black PSC6BK differs: its title says 6 mm and detailed copy reaches 12 mm, but the linked manual says under 12 mm, so the conservative numeric screen is 6.5–11.5 mm. Cyan PSC6CY, Rose Red PSC6RR and Purple PSC6PR follow the same strict-under-12 family limit. Use the same-condition 6.5 mm, 10.5 mm, 11.5 mm and 12 mm cases. Cyan Blue PSC6CY, Rose Red PSC6RR and Purple PSC6PR each have exact-page 6.5–12 mm wording, while the linked U.S. PSC6 family manual says under 12 mm. Their cautious numeric-only screen is 6.5–11.5 mm: the 6.5 and 11.5 boundaries are included and 12 mm is excluded. This is documentary screening, not an individual-pencil fit test.

Cyan Blue PSC6CY, Rose Red PSC6RR and Purple PSC6PR each have exact-page 6.5–12 mm wording, while the linked U.S. PSC6 family manual says under 12 mm. Their cautious numeric-only screen is 6.5–11.5 mm: the 6.5 and 11.5 boundaries are included and 12 mm is excluded. This is documentary screening, not an individual-pencil fit test.

Red AFMAT PSC2RD's exact page states 6.5–12 mm, but the PSC2 U.S. manual says suitable pencils must be under 12 mm. It is screened from 6.5 through 11.5 mm, not at 12 mm. This is not an individual-pencil fit test; compare 6 mm, 6.5 mm, 11.5 mm and 12 mm.

Green AFMAT PSC5GN is within its maker-stated 6.5–10.5 mm band at 7, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5 and 10 mm; this does not test an individual pencil. See the exact 9 mm finder.

Black AFMAT PSC5BK has a separately documented 6.5–10.5 mm band: 6.5 and 10.5 mm are within it, while 6 and 11 mm are outside. Check the same-condition 6.5 mm, 10.5 mm and 11 mm cases.

PSA6 Black / PSA7 Blue have a maker-stated 6–12 mm range, so the numeric endpoints are included as a documentary screen; neither endpoint guarantees the fit of a specific pencil or profile. Compare 6 mm and 12 mm.

PSC6GN, PSC6BS, PSC6BK, PSC6BL, PSC6RD, PSC6CY, PSC6RR and PSC6PR are conservatively screened from 6.5 through 11.5 mm. Their exact pages vary, but the linked U.S. PSC6 manual says under 12 mm; this is not an individual-pencil fit test.

At 12 mm, PSC6GN, PSC6BS, PSC6BK, PSC6BL, PSC6RD, PSC6CY, PSC6RR and PSC6PR are excluded because the U.S. PSC6 manual says under 12 mm, despite product-page wording and artwork that reach 12 mm. PSA6 / PSA7 and PS29 retain their own exact 6–12 mm claims; do not carry the PSC6 limit across models.

Model-specific records for the documented numeric boundaries: PS09B / PS09, PS105, PS13, PS29, PS91 Gray, PS91PR, PS92BK, PS93 Blue, PS94 Green, PSA6 Black / PSA7 Blue, PSB06, PSC2BK, PSC2BS, PSC2GN, PSC2RD, PSC3RD, PSC4BS, PSC4GN, PSC4PR, PSC4RD, PSC4RR, PSC5BK, PSC5BL, PSC5GN, PSC5PR, PSC5RD, PSC6BK, PSC6CY, PSC6GN, PSC6PR, PSC6RR, PSC7BK, PSC8PR, PSD1BL, PSD2BK, PSD3BK, PSD3RDB, PSD4BL, PSJ1BK, PSJ4RR, PSX1BK, PSX2BK, PSX3BL, PSX4BK, PSX5BK, PSX5BKET, PSX5BKEW, PSX5BKRB, PSX5BL, PSX5BLEW, PSX5BLRB, PSX5GN, PSX5GNEW, PSX5GNRB, PSX5GY, PSX5GYRB, PSX5PR, PSX5PRET, PSX5PREW, PSX5PRRB, PSX6PR, PSX7PK, PSX8BK, PSX9BL, PSY2GN, PSY4RD, Bostitch EPS5B-BLK and Bostitch RPS10V-BLK. Each review preserves its own product range, profile and source caveats.

At the outside edge, unknown and out-of-range are different

At 12.5 mm, PS29 is above its maker-stated 12 mm maximum and is excluded from the numeric-only finder. At 12.5 mm no reviewed numeric range matches: PS29 and other models with wider published bands end at 12 mm or less, while 12.5 mm is above their stated limits. The same-condition 12.5 mm result is the complete documented-range set, not a verdict about products whose numeric range is unknown.

Green AFMAT PSC5GN lies within its separate 6.5–10.5 mm maker-stated band at 9 mm; that is a range screen, not an individual-pencil fit test. Use the 9 mm finder.

The key shape conflict is between round diameter and a separately stated triangular-pencil width. For example, the PSD1 and PSD2 manuals give a 10.5 mm round-diameter limit and a separate 11.2 mm triangular width; PSX1BK, PSX2BK and PSX4BK also keep triangular-width allowances separate from their general diameter screen. Do not treat the larger width as a universal maximum or transfer it to another configuration.

Several product bands are narrower than “standard/jumbo” marketing suggests. PS09B / PS09 state 6–9.6 mm; PSB06 ends at 8.5 mm; PSC4 and PSC5 models generally state 6.5–10.5 mm; PSX5 variants often state 7–11.5 mm but may not name shaft profiles; PSX7PK, PSX8 and PSX9BL have narrower 7–8 mm ranges. A six-position dial or a shape illustration does not change those limits.

Other conflicts remain tied to their exact SKU: PSY1BN's exact page lists oval in one place but its FAQ omits it; PSY2GN and PSY2RD have the same kind of oval-list disagreement. The PSX5/PSC8 manual file and heading caveat belongs to the Blue PSX5BLEW / family evidence, while the model-specific PSX9 manual identifies PSX9; do not transfer a broad family label to every suffix. Numeric boundaries never settle a shape dispute.

Large colored pencils away from an outlet

Selected exact-model examples include PS29, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN, PSJ1BK, PSX5PRRB, PSX5BLRB, PSX5BKRB, PSX5GYRB, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PRET, PSX5GNEW, PSC2RD, PSC2BS and PSC2BK. The full 11.5 mm result keeps the exact same conditions.

At 11.5 mm, Black AFMAT PSC2BK matches the colored-pencil and cordless answers within its conservative PSC2 screen; the numeric range is not an individual-pencil fit test. Use the complete same-condition 11.5 mm colored-pencil and cordless finder. Selected model assessments: PS29, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN, PSJ1BK, PSX5PRRB, PSX5BLRB, PSX5BKRB, PSX5GYRB, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PRET, PSX5GNEW, PSC2RD, PSC2BS and PSC2BK.

Medium, operating plan and diameter must coexist on one model. Green PSX5GN has its own colored-pencil, rechargeable and 7–11.5 mm claims but does not separately name graphite use; its 7 mm colored-pencil result is not a graphite result. Grey PSX5GY is a separate exact-page positive for colored pencils at 11.5 mm, not a graphite claim. Blue PSX5BL's page evidence is not transferred to either. PSX6PR's manual names graphite and colored pencils with a 7–11.5 mm band; PSC6BS has its own page/manual evidence and conservative under-12 mm screen. Red PSC3RD, PSD2BK, PSB06, and the separate PSY/PSJ configurations each retain their own media and size limits. Their maker ranges do not test individual shafts.

At 11.5 mm, Black AFMAT PSC2BK matches the colored-pencil and cordless answers within its conservative PSC2 screen; the numeric range is not an individual-pencil fit test. Review the PSC2BK assessment and compare the full 11.5 mm finder.

Purple AFMAT PSX5PRET reaches the maker-stated 11.5 mm upper endpoint for colored pencils and cordless operation; its exact page describes automatic feed/eject, not independently tested cutoff. The page names no profile and does not establish fit of a particular pencil. See the PSX5PRET review and the same 11.5 mm finder.

Other distinct 11.5 mm examples in the selected set include PSY4BK (its detailed cordless copy conflicts with the structured power field), PSY4RD (detailed cordless copy also conflicts with its structured field), PSJ2BK (a stray PSJ5 feature label and power-field conflict), PSX5BKEW (its exact page and model page have separate evidence limits), PSC2RD / PSC2BS / PSC2BK, and separate PSX5PRRB / PSX5BLRB / PSX5BKRB / PSX5GYRB configurations. None inherits another suffix's profile or fit evidence. Use the complete same-condition result.

Selected exact-model examples include PS29, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN, PSJ1BK, PSX5PRRB, PSX5BLRB, PSX5BKRB, PSX5GYRB, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PRET, PSX5GNEW, PSC2RD, PSC2BS and PSC2BK. The complete 11.5 mm finder retains every same-condition candidate.

At 11.5 mm, require an automatic cycle as a separate condition

At 11.5 mm, Black AFMAT PSC2BK matches the colored-pencil, cordless and maker-described automatic feed/eject conditions within its conservative screen; the cycle is not an independently tested cutoff or a particular-pencil fit test. Compare the same-condition 11.5 mm finder with automatic stop required.

The exact PSJ4RR page describes colored-pencil use, rechargeable operation, automatic feed/eject and a 6.5–12 mm band, so it reaches both 11.5 and 12 mm in this documentary screen. PSC6BS is in the 11.5 mm case under the conservative under-12 manual reading, but not at 12 mm. PSX5BLEW's page states a 7–11.5 mm range and rechargeability; its linked manual has the PSX5/PSC8 label caveat and does not establish a tray interlock. These are maker claims, not fit or stop-repeatability tests; use the full 11.5 mm result.

Selected stop-required models include PS29, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN, PSJ1BK, PSX5PRRB, PSX5BLRB, PSX5BKRB, PSX5GYRB, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PRET, PSX5GNEW, PSC2RD, PSC2BS and PSC2BK. Use the complete 11.5 mm stop-required finder.

Selected examples are PS29, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN and PSJ1BK. Preserve the complete 12 mm same-condition result.

Red AFMAT PSC2RD is excluded at 12 mm even when its named colored-pencil, cordless and automatic-feed/eject claims otherwise match: the U.S. PSC2 manual says suitable pencils must be under 12 mm. Compare the same-condition 12 mm finder with stop required.

At 12 mm, this screen keeps the model-specific PSJ4RR 6.5–12 mm claim separate from PSX5-family 7–11.5 mm limits and PSC6/PSC7 manuals that say under 12 mm. Those boundaries do not guarantee a particular shaft fits.

Selected models in the 12 mm answer are PS29, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN and PSJ1BK. Keep PSC2RD outside this boundary and use the complete same-condition 12 mm finder.

Graphite and cordless use must be documented together

At 7 mm, Black AFMAT PSC2BK combines named graphite use with rechargeable cordless operation inside the conservative size screen; no shaft profile or individual-pencil fit is established. Compare the complete 7 mm graphite-and-cordless finder. Selected reviews: PS29, PS09B / PS09, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN, PSJ1BK, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PREW, PSX5GNEW, PSC2RD, PSC2BS and PSC2BK.

Selected same-condition examples are PS29, PS09B / PS09, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN, PSJ1BK, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PREW, PSX5GNEW, PSC2RD, PSC2BS and PSC2BK. Use the complete 7 mm graphite-and-cordless result.

Graphite support and cordless power are a same-model combination, not two independent checkmarks. Blue PSD1BL and PSD4BL use round-diameter limits that differ from their separately worded triangular widths; Red PSD3RDB's U.S. family manual gives 6–10.8 mm, and its package details remain a separate check. Purple PSX5PREW and Black PSX5BKEW have exact-model graphite evidence, but no named shaft profiles; Green PSX5GNEW has its own page claim. The cordless plan and fit interval must be checked on the exact SKU.

Graphite support and rechargeable cordless use are independently named for Black AFMAT PSC2BK; its exact page's 6.5–12 mm claim is screened conservatively to 11.5 mm by the PSC2 U.S. manual, and no shaft profile is identified. The complete graphite-and-cordless finder keeps all same-condition matches. Selected reviews: PS29, PS09B / PS09, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN, PSJ1BK, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PREW, PSX5GNEW, PSC2RD, PSC2BS and PSC2BK.

Other selected 7 mm examples include the distinct PS09B / PS09 pair, PS29, PSY2GN / PSY2RD, PSY4BK / PSY4RD, PSJ1BK, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PREW, PSX5GNEW, and Red PSC2RD / Sky Blue PSC2BS. PSY4BK and PSY4RD have structured power-field conflicts; PSY2 body/FAQ profiles disagree about oval. Green PSX5GN does not separately document graphite, and the PSX5 suffix facts are not interchangeable. The finder applies graphite and cordless requirements together.

The exact 7 mm candidate answer is not the 11.5 mm colored-pencil answer. A maker-stated interval may cover one while a media or shaft-profile claim does not; use the exact 7 mm graphite-and-cordless result.

Selected graphite-and-cordless examples are PS29, PS09B / PS09, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN, PSJ1BK, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PREW, PSX5GNEW, PSC2RD, PSC2BS and PSC2BK. Compare the complete graphite-and-cordless finder.

For graphite plus cordless sharpening, Black PSC2BK's exact page names both conditions, but its manual-backed numeric screen stops below 12 mm. PSB06 is a separate narrower 6–8.5 mm example, with point length kept distinct from diameter. Purple PSX6PR has a 7–11.5 mm manual range naming both graphite and colored pencils but no shaft profile; PSC6BS and the distinct PSX5 models rely on their own page/manual evidence. Compare the same-condition graphite-and-cordless finder.

PSB06's narrower range is not a point-length measurement

AFMAT PSB06's 6–8.5 mm band applies to the shaft. Its separate 8–25 mm specification is point length. At 8.5 mm it remains within the maker-stated interval; at 9 mm it is outside. Compare the 8.5 mm and 9 mm numeric-only finder cases.

Four requirements at 8.5 mm, with no bin-removal interlock required

PSB06's ordinary colored-pencil claim, rechargeable plan, maker-described automatic stop and 6–8.5 mm shaft range coexist at 8.5 mm. The exact product record does not document a bin-removal interlock; this is a maker-claim combination, not a pencil-fit or stop-repeatability test. Compare the same-condition 8.5 mm finder with automatic stop required.

The two selected exact-model examples are Sky Blue PSC6BS and Black PSC7BK; compare the complete same-condition 8.5 mm finder.

Black AFMAT PSC2BK is excluded when the same 8.5 mm colored-pencil/cordless/automatic-stop task requires a bin-removal interlock: its U.S. manual describes a lid switch but does not say it stops the motor when the bin is removed. Compare the exact 8.5 mm interlock-required finder.

At 8.5 mm, the full colored-pencil, cordless, automatic-stop and bin-interlock conditions have two selected examples: Sky Blue PSC6BS and Black PSC7BK. PSC6BS has its own exact page/manual combination; PSC7BK's U.S. manual requires a fitted lid to trigger the operating switch, but gives no mid-cycle response timing. Compare the full 8.5 mm finder with interlock required.

Check the representative pencil and exact configuration

Diameter is one filter, not a promise of profile fit. Confirm whether the maker names round, oval, triangular or hexagonal shafts; check minimum usable length where stated; and keep any 10.5 mm round limit separate from an 11.2 mm triangular width. If the selected exact model has no supported range, treat that measurement as unresolved rather than borrowing another finish's specification.

When automatic feed, diameter and safeguard conditions intersect

Selected base-case models are PS29, PS09B / PS09, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN, PSJ1BK, PSX5PRRB, PSX5BLRB, PSX5BKRB, PSX5GYRB, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PRET, PSX5GNEW, PSC2RD, PSC2BS and PSC2BK. The complete 8.5 mm finder retains the combined base conditions.

At 8.5 mm, Black AFMAT PSC2BK matches the colored-pencil, cordless and maker-described automatic-feed/eject conditions when a bin-removal interlock is not required; no individual-pencil fit or independent cutoff is established. Use the exact 8.5 mm finder with stop required. Selected reviews: PS29, PS09B / PS09, PSY4BK, PSY4RD, PSY2RD, PSY2GN, PSJ1BK, PSX5PRRB, PSX5BLRB, PSX5BKRB, PSX5GYRB, PSX5BKEW, PSX5PRET, PSX5GNEW, PSC2RD, PSC2BS and PSC2BK.

A lid-triggered operating switch and a bin-removal interlock are not interchangeable evidence. At 8.5 mm, the selected interlock-required examples are PSC6BS and PSC7BK; PSC2BK, PSB06 and models with only an automatic feed/eject claim do not acquire that extra condition by association. Compare the same condition with and without the interlock: base case and interlock required.

Black AFMAT PSC2BK is excluded when the same 8.5 mm colored-pencil/cordless/automatic-stop task requires a bin-removal interlock: its U.S. manual describes a lid switch but does not say it stops the motor when the bin is removed. The complete interlock-required answer retains the same numeric and operating conditions.

Purple PSD3PRB is a separate configuration: its manual-backed 6–10.8 mm band supports the 8.5 mm screen, but does not make PSC2 or PSC6 lid evidence transferable. A maker-described point stop, fitted-lid switch, completion light and bin-removal interlock answer different questions. Keep each requirement selected in the exact 8.5 mm finder.
