Description
Mark anything that runs hot. The C.H. Hanson El Marko™ Premier Lumber Crayon withstands 300°F without melting, so the line you laid out on dark steel or sun-baked deck boards is still there an hour later. Soft-but-tough no-melt formula marks lumber, metal, concrete, and most other surfaces, and the marks resist weather, fade, and sun — layout you can trust to outlast the workday.
Why Crews Reach for the El Marko Premier
- No-melt formula: Withstands 300°F — ride on the dashboard, the deck, or the roof without softening into a puddle
- Weather, fade, and sun resistant: Marks stay readable on outdoor work after exposure that destroys lesser crayons
- Marks lumber, metal, concrete, and more: One stick covers framing, fab shop, masonry, and packaging
- Lasts up to 10x longer: Crayon Armor® tube extends working life so you swap less often
- 1/2" hexagon x 4-1/2": Standard size — fits any 1/2" lumber crayon holder, anti-roll on the bench
- Premium black: Bold, high-contrast line for layout marks, dimension callouts, and weld locations
Use Cases
Layout marks on lumber and OSB, framing dimensions, structural steel labeling, weld layout, drywall scribing, concrete and masonry callouts, paver and slab marking, plumbing and electrical rough-in marks, packaging and shipping labels, equipment tagging, log and timber grading.
