Description
Overview:
This thin French chalk stick is a flat, white marking stick made from traditional talc/soapstone (steatite) for clean, precise layout work on a wide range of surfaces. Sized 127 x 13 x 5 mm (5 x 0.5 x 0.2 inches), it produces clear, fine lines that are easy to see yet simple to wipe away when the job is done. Use it for marking out cuts, drill points, weld beads, folds and fixing positions on metal, timber, plastics, rubber and masonry. The slim rectangular profile gives good edge control for accurate lines and tight marking near rules and squares. Suitable for workshops, site work and maintenance on construction and garden machinery, it helps you plan, measure and check before committing to cutting, drilling or welding.
