Markal 97252 Medium Tip Paint Marker
The Markal 97252 is a liquid paint marker with a bullet-shaped medium tip that writes on ceramic, glass, iron, steel, non-ferrous metals, plastic, rubber and rusty metal. It is built for maintenance, fabrication and inspection tasks where permanent, high-visibility marks are required on rough or oily surfaces.
Installation and common issues
Remove the cap and press the tip down to start the capillary flow; the ink touches the surface within seconds and dries in about 30 seconds at room temperature. The metal barrel resists solvent exposure, but the clip can bend if the marker is forced into a tight pocket, and the tip will clog if the cap is left off for extended periods.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
Ideal for technicians and welders who need quick-drying, heat-resistant marks up to 150 degrees Fahrenheit on metal and mixed substrates. Not suited for buyers who need fine-line detail on paper, water-based cleanup, or compliance with MIL-STD-2041D or GE nuclear specifications.
