Sans Superellipse Pileg 6 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Folio EF' by Elsner+Flake, 'Tungsten' by Hoefler & Co., 'Sharp Grotesk Latin' and 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean' by Monotype, and 'Folio' by URW Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A tightly condensed sans with heavy, uniform strokes and compact proportions. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle curves and flattened counters, giving round characters a squarish, superelliptic feel. Terminals are mostly blunt and squared-off, with minimal modulation and a strong vertical emphasis; joins and corners stay crisp, producing a dense, poster-like texture. Lowercase forms are simple and sturdy with short extenders and compact apertures, and the numerals match the same narrow, block-driven construction for consistent color across lines.
Best suited to headlines and display settings where compact width and high visual weight are useful—posters, promo graphics, packaging, labels, and bold UI callouts. It also fits signage and branding systems that need an economical, space-saving voice with strong impact.
The overall tone is assertive and no-nonsense, with an industrial, signage-like confidence. Its compressed width and dark mass create urgency and impact, reading as practical, direct, and slightly gritty rather than delicate or refined.
This design appears intended to maximize presence in limited horizontal space while maintaining a clean sans structure. The rounded-rectangle geometry suggests a focus on modern, modular shapes that stay legible at display sizes and reproduce reliably in bold applications.
Because of the tight spacing and reduced internal counters, the face builds a strong, continuous black shape in text. The superelliptic rounding keeps it from feeling purely mechanical, but the narrow fit and blunt details prioritize density and presence over airiness.
