Markal 96520 Micro Tip Ink Marker Black Alcohol Base

Product Description

The MARKAL 96520 is a micro-tip ink marker designed for precision marking on small or tight surfaces where a standard marker tip would be too broad. It uses an alcohol-based black ink that bonds to a wide range of surfaces, including metal, plastic, glass, cardboard, lumber, and cloth. At 0.07 pounds and compact in size, it is easy to carry in a tool pouch or service kit. Trades that require clean, legible marks on pipe, conduit, fittings, or components will find this marker well suited to everyday field and shop work.

The 96520 is used across multiple trades and applications. HVAC technicians can mark refrigerant lines, conduit runs, and equipment panels. Plumbers use it on pipe and tube for cut lines and labeling. Electricians mark conduit, junction boxes, and cable runs. The alcohol-based ink dries quickly and remains readable on non-porous surfaces such as metal and glass, making it a practical choice for service work, fabrication, and installation tasks in both residential and commercial settings.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this marker. Cap the marker when not in use to prevent the tip from drying out. Store horizontally or tip-down according to the manufacturer guidance to maintain ink flow to the micro tip. Keep away from open flame, as alcohol-based inks are flammable.
