Permanent marker Schneider Electric Maxx 271 — silver ink, 2 mm tip

Schneider Electric Maxx 271 permanent marker with silver ink and a 2 mm tip provides durable, paint-like markings on a wide range of surfaces. The marker uses alcohol-based ink without xylene or toluene, producing low odour strokes that dry to a water- and wipe-resistant finish. Its medium 2 mm line width delivers clear, consistent lines suitable for precise labeling, marking, and decorative accents both indoors and outdoors.

Advantages

The paint-marker formulation covers like lacquer on metal, glass, ceramics, porcelain, plastic, rubber, leather, paper and cardboard, offering long-lasting, lightfast results. Its alcohol-based, low-odour composition reduces unpleasant fumes while remaining resistant to heat and corrosion. A valve system ensures reliable ink flow and consistent 1–2 mm line width, and the cap colour corresponds to the ink colour for quick identification.

Suitable for

• Permanent labeling of metal parts, tools and equipment
• Marking glass, ceramics and porcelain for craft or repair work
• Writing on plastic, rubber and leather surfaces
• Packaging labels and cardboard marking
• Outdoor markings where weather resistance is required

How to use

Shake the marker well before use to mix the paint-like ink. Press the tip gently on a scrap surface to activate the valve system and allow ink to reach the nib. Apply with steady pressure for a consistent 1–2 mm line; for broader coverage, use multiple overlapping strokes. Let the ink dry before handling the marked item. Recap the marker after use to prevent drying.

Usage recommendations

For best results, test the silver ink on an inconspicuous area to ensure desired adhesion and appearance on the chosen surface. On very smooth or non-porous substrates, slightly abrade the surface if possible to improve mechanical adhesion. Store horizontally and keep capped when not in use to maintain performance.
