Markal #200 Lumber Crayon: The Industry Standard for Permanent Marking

The Markal #200 Lumber Crayon in White (MKL80350) is a staple in the industrial marking world, renowned for its versatility and durability. For decades, this wax-based marker, often referred to as "keel," has been the go-to choice for professionals in the lumber, construction, and masonry industries. Unlike standard chalk which can easily wash away or fade, the #200 series utilizes a specially formulated wax blend that leaves a permanent, weather-resistant mark capable of withstanding the elements. This makes it an essential tool for outdoor job sites where rain, snow, and direct sunlight are constant factors.

One of the standout features of the Markal #200 is its ability to perform on a wide range of surface conditions. Whether you are marking wet, frozen, or treated lumber, rough concrete, or cold steel, this crayon delivers a clear, legible line. The white pigment is particularly effective on darker surfaces, providing high contrast for easy reading. The crayon is designed with a hexagonal shape, a simple yet critical engineering choice that prevents the marker from rolling off workbenches, lumber stacks, or inclined surfaces, reducing waste and frustration.

Safety and compliance are also key components of the Markal design. The #200 Lumber Crayon is lead-free, making it safe for user handling and compliant with modern environmental standards. With a marking range of -20°F to 150°F (-29°C to 66°C), it is built to perform in extreme temperatures, ensuring that your workflow isn't interrupted by tool failure. Whether used by hand or with a compatible holder, the Markal #200 offers an economical, long-lasting solution for all your industrial identification needs.
