Marking Chalk

Whenever the task calls for long reference lines, siders, roofers, and other tradespeople opt to use chalk line reels. These reels offer convenience and efficiency when creating reference lines. By simply pulling out the chalk-covered string over a particular distance, pulling it upwards, and releasing it, the reel can deposit chalk in a straight line on the surface. When the chalk of these reels have already been used up, marking chalks can be used to refill these reels. These chalks come in 8-ounce bottles, can resist water, and are available in different colors here on Engineer Warehouse. Although marking chalks are generally used for roofing, there are chalks of various colors meant for specific applications. Black and red chalks are for semi-permanent lines used in exterior and concrete layout works and steel fabrication. There are also blue and white chalks to make standard lines for siding, paneling, and interior layout. For high-visibility lines outdoors, orange chalks are perfect for use in plumbing, installing electrical lines, and making corrections.
