Marker Schneider Electric Maxx 271 — permanent marker, refillable (Schneider Schreibgeräte)

Schneider Electric Maxx 271 is a refillable permanent marker by Schneider Schreibgeräte intended for durable marking on a wide variety of materials. The marker features a bullet tip that produces a medium line width of approximately 1–2 mm and a red, highly opaque ink controlled by a valve. The ink adheres well to rough and smooth surfaces, is water- and weather-resistant, lightfast, and shows good abrasion resistance. It is free of toluol and xylol and withstands temperatures up to 300 °C. The marker has a replaceable tip and is designed for repeated use with refill cartridges.

Advantages

The Maxx 271 provides consistent ink flow and reliable marking performance across paper, plastic, glass, ceramics, metal, leather and rubber. Its medium bullet tip balances precision and coverage while the highly opaque red ink ensures high contrast on many backgrounds. Refillable construction and a replaceable writing tip reduce waste and extend the service life of the tool. Valve-controlled ink delivery prevents excessive bleeding and supports controlled application.

Suitable for

• General labelling and packaging
• Workshop and industrial marking on metal and plastic

How to use

Shake the marker well before use to ensure uniform ink distribution. Press the tip gently to activate the valve-controlled ink flow and test on a scrap surface to check line width and ink saturation. Apply the marker with steady pressure to produce a consistent 1–2 mm line; reduce pressure for finer application. After use, replace the cap securely to avoid drying. When ink level is low, refill according to the refill instructions for Schneider markers and, if needed, replace the tip with a compatible replacement part.

Usage recommendations

For best results on non-porous surfaces such as glass or metal, clean and dry the surface before marking. Allow newly applied marks to dry fully before exposing them to heat or mechanical abrasion. Store the marker horizontally when not in use and keep away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve ink performance.
