Product Information

Full details

The Q-Connect Permanent Marker is designed for office professionals, students, and warehouse staff who need a reliable, high-capacity writing tool for diverse surfaces. The key benefit is its robust 300-metre writing length paired with a 4-hour cap-off time, which prevents premature drying during busy workflows. While the ink is incredibly durable and waterproof, users should be mindful that the permanent nature of the ink means it is difficult to remove from porous materials once applied.

FAQs

Can I use these on a whiteboard?

No, these are permanent markers and will not erase from standard dry-erase whiteboards.

Are these markers safe for children?

The ink is non-toxic, but they are intended for general office or industrial use and should be used under supervision if handled by minors.

What does 'lightfast' mean?

Lightfastness refers to the ink's resistance to fading when exposed to light, ensuring your marks remain visible over a long period.

How should I store these when not in use?

Horizontal storage is recommended to keep the ink evenly distributed across the internal fibre tip.

Is the ink removable?

As this is a permanent marker, the ink is designed to be indelible on most surfaces. Some solvents might remove it from non-porous surfaces, but it will likely stain porous materials like fabric or paper permanently.

Troubleshooting

The marker appears to have run dry.

Try storing the marker in a horizontal position for 30 minutes to allow ink to settle back into the tip, or recap it for an hour.

The ink is smudging on glossy surfaces.

The ink is quick-drying but may take a few extra seconds on non-porous surfaces like glass or plastic; allow it to air-dry completely without touching.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely long writing life of over 300 metres
  • Waterproof and lightfast ink ensures longevity
  • Low-odour and non-toxic formula for safe indoor use
  • Reliable cap-off time reduces waste from drying out

Cons

  • Permanent ink cannot be easily erased from most surfaces
  • Not suitable for use on whiteboards where erasability is required
  • The 4mm bullet tip may be too thick for fine detail work

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These markers require no assembly or activation; simply remove the cap to begin writing. They are compatible with a wide range of materials, including wood, metal, plastic, glass, and cardboard. To ensure the longest possible life for your markers:

  1. Cap Management: Always ensure the cap is snapped back firmly into place after use. Although the marker survives 4 hours uncapped, frequent recapping significantly extends the total ink life.
  2. Storage: Store markers horizontally to ensure consistent ink flow to the fibre tip.
  3. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is dry and free of dust or heavy grease for the most permanent and legible results.
  4. Handling: Avoid applying excessive pressure to the tip, as this can cause the fibre material to fray.
