## Description

ITW DYKEM STEEL RED Layout Fluid (80496) is a high-performance red layout dye engineered for machining, metal fabrication and precision assembly. It rapidly forms an ultra-thin, uniform, high-contrast red coating on metal surfaces, delivering clear and reliable visual references for subsequent scribing, positioning, dimensional inspection and assembly.

## Features

Dykem Steel Red Layout Fluid 80496 features a safer toluene-free formulation. It delivers a uniform, deep red finish that effectively eliminates glare from reflective metal surfaces and greatly reduces eye strain for inspectors and scribing operators. It dries rapidly within minutes, forming an ultra-thin film that adds virtually no dimensional offset to the workpiece. The cured film maintains excellent flexibility and will not crack, flake or peel during machining or handling. Beyond its use as a scribing background coating, it also helps reveal tiny surface imperfections, cracks and pinholes, supporting surface preparation prior to non-destructive testing (NDT).

ITW Dykem Steel Red Layout Fluid 80496 is widely used in machine shops, mold making, metalworking, equipment maintenance, inspection stations and other applications. It works on most workpiece surfaces including steel, cast iron, aluminum and copper alloys, and can also be used for marking non-metallic materials. Typical uses include scribing &positioning, marking machining reference lines, gear contact pattern inspection, revealing surface defects and assembly marking. It can be easily cleaned off with Dykem dedicated cleaner, making it an indispensable professional marking material for machining and quality inspection.
