OVERVIEW

Professional Branding and Traceability for Stainless Steel

The Walter Surfox-M Marking Solution (54A036) is an essential consumable for fabricators looking to add a professional touch to their stainless steel products. In today's competitive market, clear branding and traceability are crucial. This specialized electrolyte solution allows you to permanently mark stainless steel surfaces with ease, creating high-contrast black designs that stand the test of time. Whether you need to apply company logos, intricate barcodes, QR codes, or sequential serial numbers, Surfox-M delivers a crisp, dark finish that enhances the perceived value of your work.

Designed for use with Walter's renowned Surfox weld cleaning systems, this solution works through an electrochemical process. Unlike paint or ink that sits on top of the surface and can chip away, Surfox-M modifies the surface of the steel itself through oxidation. This results in a mark that is flush with the metal and incredibly durable. The 5-liter container is perfect for workshops with high-volume production needs, ensuring you have an ample supply of marking fluid on hand for all your projects. It represents a safer, cleaner alternative to traditional acid etching methods, keeping your workplace safer while delivering superior results.

Using Surfox-M is straightforward and integrates seamlessly into your existing finishing workflow. By switching your Surfox machine to AC mode and using a marking kit with a stencil, you can achieve consistent, high-quality marks in seconds. This solution is specifically formulated to ensure that while the mark is permanent, the corrosion resistance of the surrounding stainless steel remains intact. Elevate your fabrication standards and ensure your parts are easily identifiable with the reliability of Walter Surface Technologies.

FAQ

You must use the AC (Alternating Current) mode on your Surfox machine. This setting creates the black oxidation mark. DC mode is for cleaning and will not produce a black mark.

Yes, the mark is permanent. It is created through an oxidation process that alters the surface of the stainless steel, making it resistant to chemicals, mechanical wear, and fading.

Surfox-M is specifically designed for stainless steel. Marking aluminum requires different electrolytes and processes due to its conductivity and oxide layer properties.

Yes, stencils are required to define the shape of the mark (text, logo, code). You can use permanent stencils for repeated designs or disposable ones for unique serial numbers.

No, electrochemical marking with Surfox-M in AC mode adds a black oxide layer to the surface without removing significant material, preserving the part's structural integrity.

After marking, wipe the area with a neutralizer (like Surfox-N) or rinse thoroughly with water to remove any acidic residue and stop the chemical reaction.

When stored properly in a cool, dry place and kept sealed, Surfox-M has a long shelf life. Refer to the specific expiration date on the container label.

Surfox-M is a chemical electrolyte. While safer than pickling pastes, standard PPE (gloves, eye protection) should be worn during use. Always consult the SDS.
