Tempilstik 1292°F — Applications & Standards

Verify industrial furnace temperature, metallurgical heat treatment and ultra-high-temperature applications.

No power source and no periodic calibration required. When the crayon mark melts on the metal surface, the temperature has reached 1292°F (700°C) — a clear visual result that can be photographed for QA/QC records right on site.

Standards-based Usage Context

📐 Applicable Standard

ASTM E220, AMS 2750 (Pyrometry) — calibration and verification of industrial heat equipment.

Heat-resistant alloys, ceramics and refractory materials.

📖 How to Use

Correct field measurement technique

Mark the crayon on the steel surface before heating, at least 75 mm (3 in) away from the weld joint per AWS D1.1 Section 5. When the temperature reaches 1292°F the mark melts — the signal that the next step may proceed. Do not measure directly on a surface just heated by an open flame.

⚖️ Equipment Comparison

Why not use an IR laser thermometer?

IR laser thermometers are affected by emissivity — causing 5–15% error on steel with mill scale, rust or primer. Tempilstik works by a chemical mechanism, independent of surface condition. In outdoor conditions (wind, rain) on O&G sites, Tempilstik gives more reliable results.

Frequently Asked Questions

❓ Documents & Standards

Is Tempilstik 1292°F accepted in a WPS?

Yes. AWS D1.1, ASME Section IX and API 1104 all accept temperature-indicating crayons such as Tempilstik as a valid temperature-measurement method. Tempilstik comes with a full Certificate of Origin, Mill Certificate and Technical Data Sheet for your project material file.

See the full Tempilstik FAQ tempil.vn

❓ Storage

Shelf life and storage conditions

Tempilstik has no official expiry date when stored correctly: in a dry, cool place out of direct sunlight and away from high ambient heat. The chemical composition stays stable over time with proper storage.
