  • Prevents glare and eye strain during extended use
  • Flash point 53 degrees F for safer shop handling

Layout fluid for precision marking

Dykem 80300 Steel Blue layout fluid comes in a 4 fl oz brush-cap bottle for direct application. The transparent blue liquid dries within minutes to a deep, non-glare coating that reduces eye strain during close inspection. It is intended for tool and die making, maintenance mechanics and pattern making where sharp, visible scribe lines are required. Not for buyers who need a large-volume container or an aerosol delivery method.

Flash point and regulatory limits

The fluid has a flash point of 53 degrees Fahrenheit, so it must be kept away from ignition sources and stored in a cool, well-ventilated area. California Proposition 65 warns that the product contains a chemical known to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. These constraints limit use in environments with strict fire codes or where Proposition 65 compliance is mandatory.

Brush-cap applicator decides fit

The integrated brush cap is the single feature that determines whether this bottle suits the workflow. It allows controlled, repeatable coating of small to medium workpieces without a separate applicator. Shops that prefer spray application, dip tanks or high-volume dispensing will need a different package format.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 4 fl oz brush-cap bottle or a larger size?

The listed item is the 4 fl oz brush-cap bottle; no other capacities are mentioned in the product details.

What does the 53-degree flash point mean when I am using the fluid on the shop floor?

A 53 °F flash point means the vapour can ignite at low temperatures, so keep the bottle away from open flames, sparks or hot surfaces while laying out workpieces.

How does the brush-cap applicator affect the way the fluid covers the metal?

The integrated brush cap lets you apply a thin, transparent blue coat directly onto the surface, which dries within minutes and reduces glare for easier scribing.
