How well do they fit on the pencil? I bought a few (don't know the brand) and they are too loose and just fall off. Do these fit fairly snuggly?

They fit very snug on all of the pencils in the office and we have multiple different brands of pencils. So far none have fallen off or torn. They are very durable.

Yes, they fit snugly and don't fall off like other erasers do. I have been very happy with these.

These have an inside layer that makes them thicker. They are VERY fit! Not flimsy or thin.

Use crazy glue: pull off existing eraser, circle of glue 1/8 inch around top, attach head. Elementary kids drop pens and pencils all day, make friends with the janitor and he will have many xerox boxes full of pencils, pens, markers, they save them rather than discard them, and will give you some or a whole box!

The ones I bought for my class were lousy. Most didn't fit and those that did fit broke - unusable broke.

No. I've tried it and standard cap erasers do not fit on these pencils. I wish they did... or that replacement erasers were available.

They don't lock into place in the tray, so they might not want to stay in place. When you have all 7 in place, they are nice and snug, but I still think you might want to try a large rubber band length-wise around them. I really love them, though. Still using them, and the snap shut hasn't loosened at all.

They do fit, you will have to press it into the slot with your finger and go all the way around the edge maybe two - three times. We've used our magic blender about 30 times since then and has never come off.

They are very smooth to lay down compared to the Derwent unfortunately the quality control on their manufacture seems very bad. I purchased a set of 36. Out of the thirty six about ten pencils had issues ranging from offset leads to completely split wood casings. Although they are harder, I prefer the Derwent's, the overall quality is better. I hope this helps.

They fit very snug. This past winter when seeping with them on I found them a great comfort. I especially like the left one, being a knitter with an arthritic thumb and fore finger it keeps them somewhat stable. I think you will like them. Hope this has helped you.

I don't have them with me now to measure, but they are basically normal pencil length, maybe a bit on the shorter side. Not half - length for sure, they're a decent size.

try taking the clip off, bending in carefully the part that clips to the pencil, and then put it back on, or you could try super glue, since there's not much reason for it to come off, i love these pencils too, they are my favorite

Hi Becky, checked with my daughter. No, they do not stay in place. She said they are too thick and too small and move around. She is going back to the other ones we got her. Thanks, Susan

they have a snug fit. I haven't had them fall off. I run and workout with them. they have great sound, never had any issues with them.

I haven't used them with pencil yet. I did try them with markers and they worked well and didn't smear. I would buy them again as price was a good price and I liked them. I haven't been disappointed with any Staedtler products I have purchased.

Which new ones are you referring to? I have the gripper ones and they're pretty good, they do provide extra grip but if you don't get them loose enough, they start to dig into the webbing between your thumb and palm. But then if you don't get them tight enough, they could fall off. They're pretty good but I can only speak for the gripper ones

They are approx. 7-8 inches tall (not sure how tall your pencils are) ~ hope that helps. :)

Technically yes, but it has never happened to me. They're rubber and fit really snug so I doubt they will fall off unless they're not pushed on all the way. You should be fine.

I have another stylus by Zagg. These tips will not fit. These are quite narrow.

I think if you are a strong, fast swimmer they may come loose..... This could be remedied by using goggles to secure them, or a swimming cap. I do a fast side stroke and I haven't had any problem with them coming off while swimming. I also do a slow- medium freestyle and I haven't had a problem with them. I love them....for the price, give them a try. You could always use them for relaxing pool time or work-outs...

I have never had a problem with that. If I were to venture a guess as to why this is happening, my first question would be - what are you trying to clip it to? The only way I could see this coming off is if the clip was streched beyond its capacity. If you use a clip board, clip the pencil to the inside of the clip, or a couple top sheets of paper. It's not made to clip to anything thicker than a composition notebook cover. The other suggestion of bending and super glue sounds like a reasonable fix for the existing problem.
