FAQs

What materials can these marker leads be used on?

These leads are suitable for marking on various materials including stone, wood, and paper. They also work well on other common construction and DIY surfaces.

Do these leads come with a marker pencil?

No, this is a set of refill leads only. A compatible Bosch deep hole marker pencil is required and sold separately.

How many leads are included in this set?

The set includes a total of 6 leads: two red, two yellow, and two graphite HB leads.

Are these leads suitable for permanent marking?

These leads provide marks that are generally visible for marking purposes but are not intended as permanent industrial markers. They may be erasable or fade over time depending on the surface and environmental conditions.

Can I use these leads with any marker pencil?

These leads are designed for Bosch deep hole marker pencils. While the 2.8mm diameter is standard for some markers, compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed.

How should I store the marker leads?

It is best to store the leads in the provided plastic case in a cool, dry place to prevent them from breaking or degrading.

Troubleshooting

Lead does not advance in the marker pencil

Check if a lead is already loaded or if the current lead is broken inside the mechanism. Try retracting and re-advancing, or insert a new lead.

Lead breaks easily during marking

Ensure the lead is fully seated in the pencil. Apply lighter, consistent pressure while marking. Check if the surface is too rough or uneven.

Mark is faint or not visible

Use a different lead color or type more suitable for the surface. Ensure the lead tip is sharp enough (if applicable to the pencil's design) and that you are applying adequate pressure.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure your Bosch deep hole marker pencil is clean and ready for use.
  2. Open the refill case and select the desired lead color or type.
  3. Carefully insert the lead into the designated slot in the marker pencil. Apply gentle, even pressure until it is seated securely.

Compatibility:

  • These 2.8mm leads are designed specifically for use with Bosch deep hole marker pencils. Compatibility with other brands or models of marking tools is not guaranteed.

  • Keep the case in a cool, dry place.
