Marker Staedtler Textsurfer classic 364 — purple ink, single-piece highlighter

Staedtler Textsurfer classic 364 — purple ink, single-piece highlighter is a compact, single-unit highlighter designed for clear, long-lasting highlighting on paper documents. The marker delivers a vivid purple line with an ultra-soft chisel tip that produces stroke widths from approximately 1 to 5 mm. Engineered for frequent use, it includes a large ink reservoir for extended highlighting performance and quick-drying ink that is safe for inkjet prints and handwritten notes.

Advantages

The highlighter offers smear-resistant, fast-drying purple ink that remains clear on paper, fax and carbon copies. Its large ink reservoir and refillable design provide extended service life, while the PP barrel and cap ensure durability. A twist cap enables easy opening, and automatic pressure equalization makes the pen airplane-safe by preventing leaks during altitude changes. The ultra-soft chisel tip allows both narrow underlining and wide highlighting in a single stroke.

Suitable for

• Studying and annotating textbooks or notes

How to use

Remove the twist cap before use and apply the chisel tip to the document at a shallow angle for broad highlighting or rotate the tip to its edge for narrow underlining.

When ink flow decreases, replace the refill according to the manufacturer’s instructions to restore full performance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, test the highlighter on a small corner of the document to confirm compatibility with the paper and print type. Store horizontally when not in use to maintain consistent ink distribution and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or high temperatures.
