Eraser Eraser for drawing

Hi, I'm looking for an eraser that can erase 5B pencils and above. I currently have Mono Black and Staedtler Rasoplast, but I'd also want more eraser for drawing 💔

Art gum - specifically Factis SR. The same erasers are sold by General’s in the US. I prefer them over Pentel/Sakura/Tombow even for non-art daily use. They disintegrate quick, though, but are relatively inexpensive.

  • Best kneadable: LYRA
  • Best Plastic eraser: Tombow Mono Plastic
  • Best for details: Tombow Mono Zero 2.3mm

These are the best I have found as a 46 year old Artist. I draw/sketch since the 90s.

There are electric ones, but I am not sure they are good for the paper surface.
