OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade Liquid Paint Marking

The Markal Valve Action Paint Marker in Yellow is a staple in the industrial sector, renowned for its versatility and reliability. Unlike standard felt-tip markers that fade or wash away, this product utilizes real liquid paint to create durable, long-lasting marks that withstand harsh industrial environments. Whether you are marking inventory in a warehouse, identifying parts on an assembly line, or coding pipes in a facility, the vibrant yellow color ensures high visibility and readability. The marker features a robust metal barrel designed to survive the rigors of daily use, protecting the paint supply from impact and crushing.

One of the standout features of this marker is its specialized formula. It is engineered to be fast-drying, which significantly reduces the likelihood of smears and smudges, allowing users to handle marked parts almost immediately. Furthermore, the paint is weather-resistant and UV-resistant, making it an excellent choice for materials that are stored outdoors or exposed to the elements. The valve action mechanism allows the user to re-ink the tip on demand, ensuring a fresh flow of paint even after the cap has been off for a short period, and preventing the tip from drying out prematurely.

Critically for specialized manufacturing, this marker is formulated to be safe for use on stainless steel, alloys, and superalloy metals. It is designed to not contribute to pitting, corrosion, or material degradation, addressing a common concern in high-purity environments. The medium bullet tip provides a consistent line width, perfect for legible writing on surfaces ranging from smooth glass and plastic to rough, rusty, or dirty metal.

FAQ

Shake the marker well with the cap on. Remove the cap, press the tip down on a scrap surface, and pump it several times until the paint saturates the tip.

Yes, this formula is designed to be safe for stainless steel and other alloys, preventing pitting or corrosion.

The paint typically dries to the touch in approximately 1 to 2 minutes, depending on ambient temperature and humidity.

While it works best on clean surfaces, the Valve Action marker is designed to mark effectively on slightly oily, dirty, or rusty surfaces common in industrial settings.

Yes, the liquid paint creates a permanent mark that is resistant to wear and weather. It can be removed with specific solvents if necessary.

The marking range is -50°F to 150°F (-46°C to 66°C), making it suitable for extreme cold and moderate heat.

No, the modern Markal Valve Action formula is Xylene-free to reduce health risks.

The valve mechanism helps seal the paint in the barrel, but the tip itself may dry. You can often re-wet it by pumping the valve, but it is best to recap immediately after use.
