In this paper, we present pointwise estimates of the streamline diffusion finite element method (SDFEM) for conforming piecewise linears on Shishkin triangular meshes. The method is applied to a model singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problem with characteristic layers. Using a new variant of artificial crosswind diffusion, we prove that uniformly pointwise error bounds away from the layers are of order almost 7/4 (up to a logarithmic factor). In some cases, the convergence order is almost 15/8. Our analysis depends on discrete Green's functions and sharp estimates of the diffusion and convection parts in the bilinear form. Finally, numerical experiments support our theoretical results.
