OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade Flat Soapstone for Metal Fabrication

The FS1 Flat Soapstone (144/Box) represents a staple consumable for any metalworking or fabrication environment. Sourced from premium-grade natural white soapstone, these markers are designed to provide high-visibility layout lines on a variety of metal surfaces, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. The natural composition of the stone ensures that it is chemically inert, meaning it will not introduce contaminants into the weld pool or interfere with subsequent finishing processes. This makes it an ideal choice for code-critical work where weld purity is paramount.

One of the primary advantages of the FS1 configuration is its flat profile. Unlike round markers which can easily roll off worktables or shift position on vibrating machinery, the flat design ensures the tool remains exactly where it is placed. Furthermore, the flat geometry allows the operator to sharpen the edge to a fine point for precision work or use the broad side for highly visible rough markings. This versatility reduces the need for multiple marking tools at a single station.

This product is supplied in a bulk box containing 144 individual pieces, making it a highly economical solution for large-scale operations. The packaging is designed to protect the stones during transit and storage, minimizing breakage and waste. Compatible with standard flat soapstone holders, these markers integrate seamlessly into existing tool kits. Whether used for structural steel layout, pipe fitting, or general repair, the FS1 delivers consistent performance and reliability.

Key Industrial Benefits:

  • Heat Stability: Marks remain visible even under the intense heat of oxy-fuel cutting and arc welding.
  • Weld Safety: Will not adversely affect weld quality or create porosity.
  • Cost Efficiency: Bulk packaging significantly reduces the cost per unit for high-consumption environments.

FAQ

No, natural soapstone is largely composed of talc and is chemically inert. It will not introduce contaminants that cause porosity or weaken the weld.

Yes, these are sized to fit standard flat soapstone holders commonly found in the welding industry.

Flat soapstone does not roll away when placed on a surface, which is a common annoyance with round markers. It also allows for different line widths depending on how you hold it.

The FS1 package contains 144 individual flat soapstone markers.

No, soapstone marks are temporary and can be wiped or brushed off after the work is completed.

Soapstone works best on dry surfaces. On wet or oily metal, the mark may be faint or difficult to apply.

Soapstone is highly heat resistant and marks will typically remain visible even near the heat affected zone of a weld or cut.

No, this is natural soapstone. Wax-based markers are different and can sometimes contaminate welds; soapstone is safe for welding.
