Sprinter Marker Machine Ink, 18504 Yellow Ink - 7.5ml (1/4 oz) Bottles 50/pkg

Common Ink Types

Quick dry / pigmented:

This is the most common ink used for the majority of industrial marking applications. Drying time is measured in one to two seconds on non-porous surfaces and quicker on porous surfaces. The ink is heavily pigmented to provide an easily read mark on both light and dark backgrounds. Pigmented inks offer better chemical and mechanical resistance than dye-type inks. The ink vehicle is alcohol based and promotes the flow of pigment. This makes for very fast dry times on both porous and non-porous surfaces. Pigmented inks also are more light-fast than dye-type inks. Pigmented inks do require shaking to uniformly disperse the pigments in solution. This should be done on a daily basis when in use or when being transferred to other containers. Several different grades are offered. These inks are flammable and need to be handled in accordance with the Material Safety Data Sheet recommendations.

Water wash off:

This is a water-based industrial marking grade ink. It is usually used in applications where the ink will be washed off in a later process. Some grades are pigmented and others are dye-type. These inks are non-flammable and non-hazardous.
