Soapstone and Markers for Welding Layout and Metal Marking
Soapstone and welding markers are used to mark steel, plate, pipe, tubing, and other materials before cutting, grinding, fitting, or welding. Clear layout marks can help improve accuracy and make fabrication, repair, and shop work easier.
When choosing soapstone or markers, consider the material being marked, visibility, heat resistance, line thickness, and whether the marks need to hold up during cutting or welding prep. Soapstone is commonly used in welding shops because it marks metal clearly and can withstand heat better than many ordinary marking tools.
Layout and Fabrication Tools
Common add-ons for soapstone and markers include welding hand tools, welding tools, abrasives, welding gloves, protective eyewear, and welding helmets.
