Which of the following may be used to mark turbine engine components exposed to high temperatures?

  1. Grease or wax pencil

  2. Layout dye

  3. Graphite lead pencil

  4. Chalk

The correct answer is: Layout dye

Layout dye is the most suitable option for marking turbine engine components exposed to high temperatures because of its heat-resistant properties. It can withstand temperatures of up to 600 degrees Fahrenheit without melting or smudging, making it a reliable choice for marking parts in these conditions. Grease or wax pencil, graphite lead pencil, and chalk are not recommended as they are not specifically designed for high temperature applications and may not withstand the extreme heat of a turbine engine.
