    High Temperature Marking Methods

    I haven't had personal experience with laser marked barcodes being exposed to high temperatures; but, the mark should be OK. You might want to contact Dave Smith at Cerdec @ www.cerdecmark.com. They have exposed Cerdec laser marks to a variety of adverse conditions. Good Luck!

    Corrosion at 316SS caused by engraving process of marking

    Good point AEF! You can get the particulars, including chemical resistance testing at: www.cerdecmark.com. The laser energy (heat) actual anneals the active pigment in the formula onto the stainless steel, creating a new alloy which is slightly raised on the SS surface.

    Biocompatible Ink

    Rather than using ink, why don't you consider laser marking. It's cleaner and the marks are permanent. You can see examples at: www.custom-etched.com

    High Temperature Marking Methods

    Laser engraving using a laser sensitive pigment produces a permanent black mark on stainless steel, steel, and aluminum. It's very easy to use and can withstand very corrosive and other very unfriendily enviroments. You can see some examples at: www.custom-etched.com
