SHARPIE

Sharpie is a brand of marking instruments originally introduced by the Sanford Ink Company in 1964. The name has since become a generic term for permanent markers in many English-speaking markets. The product line includes permanent markers, industrial markers, and specialty markers for demanding environments. 3G Electric supplies Sharpie industrial and general-purpose ink markers to maintenance, production, and logistics operations worldwide. The markers we carry are intended for marking metal, plastic, cardboard, and other non-porous surfaces where a durable, fast-drying mark is required. Available tip configurations include bullet and chisel styles, with tip widths ranging from 2 mm to 15.5 mm. Ink colors include black and red. Dry time is typically 5 to 30 seconds, depending on substrate and ambient conditions. Barrels are plastic, and actuation is standard (cap-on, cap-off). Markers are supplied in 12-pack quantities. The line includes general-purpose markers for warehouse, shipping, and assembly tasks, as well as aerospace ink markers formulated for marking on metal and other non-porous surfaces in industrial environments. These markers are used for labeling, coding, identification, and traceability. They are not a substitute for paint markers or specialty inks where resistance to specific chemicals or extreme temperatures is required. 3G Electric stocks Sharpie markers as part of its industrial consumables range. We support the line with order fulfillment, logistics coordination, and access to manufacturer part numbers for repeat procurement. Our catalog lists tip style, tip width, ink color, dry time, and pack quantity so buyers can match the marker to the application. For plant engineers and maintenance managers, Sharpie markers offer a familiar form factor and consistent ink delivery for everyday marking tasks. For procurement specialists, the 12-pack format and standard MPNs simplify reordering. We do not manufacture Sharpie products; we distribute them. Availability and lead times vary by region and order volume. Contact 3G Electric with your required tip style, ink color, and quantity for a quotation.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about SHARPIE from 3G Electric.

What tip styles and widths are available in the Sharpie industrial marker line?

Sharpie industrial markers are available with bullet and chisel tips. Bullet tips in the line have a 2 mm tip width, suitable for fine lines and writing. Chisel tips are offered in 7 mm and 15.5 mm widths, allowing both thin and broad strokes depending on the angle of the marker. Tip style affects line width and ink laydown, so selection depends on the surface and the size of the mark required. All markers in this range use standard actuation (cap-on, cap-off) and plastic barrels. 3G Electric lists tip style and width for each SKU to help match the marker to the application.

What is the dry time for Sharpie general purpose ink markers?

Sharpie general purpose ink markers have a dry time of 5 to 30 seconds. Actual dry time depends on the substrate, ambient temperature, humidity, and how much ink is applied. On non-porous surfaces such as metal or plastic, the ink may take longer to set than on cardboard or paper. For aerospace ink markers in the line, dry time is specified as less than 30 seconds. These markers are intended for marking, labeling, and identification tasks where a fast-drying mark is needed. They are not formulated for high-temperature or chemical-resistant applications unless explicitly stated.

Are Sharpie aerospace ink markers different from general purpose markers?

Sharpie aerospace ink markers are a distinct product family within the line. They are supplied with a bullet point and black ink, and are intended for marking on metal, plastic, and other non-porous surfaces in industrial environments. The dry time is less than 30 seconds. General purpose markers are offered in black and red, with bullet or chisel tips, and are positioned for warehouse, shipping, and assembly marking. The aerospace markers may have different ink formulations or quality controls, but both families share plastic barrels and standard actuation. Buyers should select based on the surface and the required mark durability.

What surfaces can Sharpie industrial markers mark?

Sharpie industrial markers are suitable for marking on metal, plastic, and cardboard, as well as other non-porous surfaces. The ink is fast-drying and intended for labeling, coding, and identification. Performance varies by surface: porous surfaces like cardboard may absorb ink quickly, while non-porous surfaces like metal or plastic may require a longer dry time. The markers are not designed for use on wet, oily, or dirty surfaces unless the surface is prepared. For applications requiring resistance to solvents, abrasion, or extreme temperatures, alternative marking systems should be evaluated.

How are Sharpie markers packaged and what are the manufacturer part numbers?

Sharpie industrial markers supplied by 3G Electric are packaged in 12-packs. Manufacturer part numbers include 15001B (black chisel, 7 mm), 15002 (red chisel, 7 mm), 13601A (black bullet, 2 mm), 44001A (black chisel, 15.5 mm), and 13401 (black aerospace bullet). These MPNs can be used for cross-referencing and reordering. The 12-pack format is standard for industrial and commercial procurement. 3G Electric lists the MPN for each SKU in the catalog to simplify identification and repeat orders.

Does 3G Electric provide logistics support for Sharpie marker orders?

Yes. 3G Electric supports Sharpie marker orders with order fulfillment and logistics coordination. We ship globally and can accommodate scheduled deliveries, consolidated shipments, and standard freight arrangements. Lead times depend on stock availability and destination.
