The Markal Silver-Streak® Welder's Pencil (SKU: 96004) is a specialized marking tool designed to address the common visibility challenges faced during thermal cutting and welding processes. Unlike traditional soapstone, which often creates faint lines that can be obscured by the glare of a torch or arc, the Silver-Streak® utilizes a unique reflective lead formulation. This lead illuminates when exposed to the intense light of cutting torches or welding arcs, allowing the operator to maintain precise tracking of the layout line through protective filter plates.
Engineered for industrial resilience, the marks produced by this pencil are highly resistant to heat and will not burn off or blow away, even under high-pressure oxy-fuel cutting. The pencil form factor allows for sharpening to a fine point, facilitating intricate layout work that requires tighter tolerances than what is typically achievable with standard flat markers. It is compatible with all metal surfaces, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, and performs reliably even on oily or wet substrates.
This product is an essential consumable for metal fabrication shops, structural steel manufacturing, and maintenance operations where accuracy and mark retention are critical to quality control.
