Cougartron WELC3117 CGT-MS Mild Steel Marking Fluid – 500ml - marking fluid for mild steel metal surfaces.
Permanent, High-Contrast Identification on Mild Steel Surfaces (0.5L)
The Cougartron CGT-MS Mild Steel Marking Fluid is an expert-grade electrolyte solution engineered specifically for high-performance electrochemical marking on mild steel and carbon steel components. Designed for use across rigorous industrial and fabrication environments, this 0.5-litre formulation ensures the creation of indelible, high-contrast, black markings, essential for long-term product traceability and professional branding.
As industry specialists, we understand that effective component identification must be fast, cost-effective, and absolutely permanent. The CGT-MS fluid operates within the electrochemical marking process, reacting with the mild steel surface when an electrical current is applied via a marking machine and stencil. This reaction causes a microscopic surface oxidation, resulting in a dark, clear, and durable mark that resists abrasion, heat, and chemical exposure, unlike conventional methods such as inkjet printing or simple laser engraving which may only scratch the surface.
This specialised marking electrolyte is the definitive choice for manufacturers and professionals seeking to optimise their workflow while maintaining compliance with strict quality control and traceability standards. By utilising the Cougartron CGT-MS, businesses ensure that critical information – from serial numbers and batch codes to proprietary logos – remains legible for the entire service life of the mild steel component. Trust the Cougartron expertise to deliver superior, reliable, and consistent steel etching results every time.
