The size of the lead (0.3mm, 0.5mm, 0.7mm, 0.9mm, 1.3mm, etc) is just the width of the lead. In a #2 pencil, the #2 refers to the hardness of the lead. This is where those little letters on the lead come into play on the lead refill packs. The ratings are like this:
(softer) (harder)
B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 HB H1 H2 H3 H4 H5 H6
(darker) (lighter)
Most lead refill packs you buy from places like office max, target, bookstore, etc will be HB. Lead that comes with brand new mechanical pencils is almost always HB. This "mid-range" hardness is equivalent to #2 lead in a #2 pencil. The other kinds of lead are pretty much only sought after by drafters and you'll probably only find them in a drafting supply store or a specialty office store.
So the answer to your question: it probably is, but not because it's 0.7mm. rather, it probably is because HB lead is the most common and most likely to have come with your pencil.

What is the length of a unsharpened pencil in mm?

What does 10 mm in diameter look like?
A 10 mm diameter object would appear as a circle with a width of 10 millimeters when viewed directly from above. To put it into perspective, a common comparison is that a standard pencil's diameter is around 7-8 mm. So, a 10 mm diameter object would be slightly larger than a pencil's width.
What is 300 x 1800mm in inches?
300*1800 mm = 540000 mm = 21260 inches approx.This is not the same as 300 mm x 1800 mm which is a measure of an area.
Which is greater 15cm or 150mm?
Since 1 cm = 10 mm, they are the same.15 cm = 150 mm
Is 2mm larger than 3mm?
No. The units are the same (mm) so the numbers can be compared directly. 2 < 3 → 2 mm < 3 mm. → 2 mm is less than 3 mm, ie 2 mm is not larger than 3 mm.
What is the thickness of lead in a pencil?
The standard thickness of the lead core in a pencil is 0.7 mm. However, there are also pencils available with 0.5 mm, 0.9 mm, and other sizes of lead cores.
Will 0.9 lead fit in pencils that use 0.7?
No, a 0.9 mm lead will not fit in pencils designed for 0.7 mm lead. The diameter of the lead is different, and the pencil's mechanism is specifically tailored to accommodate the size of the lead it is designed for. Attempting to use 0.9 mm lead in a 0.7 mm pencil could lead to jams or damage to the pencil.
Is a 7 mm mechanical pencil the same as a number 2 pencil?
The "number 2" designation refers to the "hardness" of the lead. The higher the number, the "harder" The "7mm" designation refers to the "thickness" of the lead. The higher the number, the thicker. They are not the same pencil.
Would 0.5 mm work for a 0.7 lead pencil?
No, a 0.5 mm lead refill would not work for a 0.7 lead pencil. The lead size must match the pencil size for it to fit and work correctly.
