RS1 - Round Soapstone Markers - 144 Piece Bulk Box

Reliable Metal Marking in Bulk

Stock up your shop with the RS1 Round Soapstone (144/Box), the industry standard for temporary metal marking. Designed for welders, pipefitters, and fabricators, these round soapstone markers offer the perfect balance of durability and visibility. When laying out complex patterns or simply marking cut lines on structural steel, you need a marker that won't fade, burn off, or blow away. Soapstone has been the go-to choice for generations of tradespeople because of its natural resistance to heat and flame.

The RS1 features a round profile, which many fabricators prefer for its ability to draw consistent lines in any direction. Unlike flat soapstone, which can wear down to a wide, imprecise edge if not rotated frequently, round soapstone maintains a more uniform contact point. This shape is also specifically designed to be compatible with mechanical round soapstone holders. Using a holder allows you to utilize the entire length of the stone, minimizing waste, and provides a sturdy grip that keeps your gloves clean and your hands further from the heat.

Quality is paramount even in consumables. These markers are cut from "Select" grade stone, meaning they are freer from the fissures and hard spots found in lower-quality alternatives. This results in smoother writing and less breakage. The white mark stands out vividly against rusted steel, mill scale, and cast iron, ensuring you never lose your place. Additionally, soapstone is non-contaminating; it leaves no residue that would interfere with welding or cutting processes, ensuring the integrity of your work remains uncompromised.

Economical and Practical

With 144 markers in every box, the RS1 ensures you aren't constantly running out of supplies in the middle of a project. It is a cost-effective solution for equipping an entire crew. The markings are temporary and can be removed with a wire brush or rag, making them perfect for surface-critical applications where permanent ink is not permitted. From the layout table to the field, rely on these round soapstone markers for accuracy and performance.
