There are lots Steel Stamps and Dies available off-the-shelf to meet many of your everyday needs. But when you need something custom or unique, it's good to know that we can have that made for you too!  Here are some things to things you should know about steel stamps and dies. 
Stamping Dies

Steel stamps and marking dies are custom engineered for identifying a variety of industrial products. Every die blank is machined to the user's specifications. Custom dies satisfy any user requirement for marking machines, punch presses, press brakes and other machines.
​

Custom stamps can be made for marking on flat, curved, concave or convex surfaces - for stamping part numbers, patent numbers, trade names, trademarks, special lettering or other data. 

Embossing Dies

Steel embossing and coining dies are most often used in the sheet metal industry
This process can be made by means of matched male and female roller dies, or by passing sheet or a strip of metal between rolls of the desired pattern. It is often combined with foil stamping to create a shiny, 3D effect.

These male and female dies produce permanent and legible raised letters, including trademarks, code symbols, ornamental patterns, or virtually any specific design, on various gauges of sheet metals.
Embossing Die
There are some pretty hot examples of embossing dies.

Roll Dies

For marking parts being machined on an engine lathe, turret lathe or screw machine, these rolls can be made for one or more lines of interchangeable type, or with combinations of solid logotypes and individual characters.
​Roll dies can be made for one or multiple of interchangeable type and customized with combinations of solid logotypes and individual characters.

​You can also get a  number of character options including:
  • Sharp face
  • Low stress round
  • Low stress dot
  • Flat face
  • Concave face
  • Convex or spherical

Steel roll dies offer users a number of advantages. One of the most apparent advantages of steel is life span. Steel is a durable material that offers users a long service life, making steel roll dies a cost effective solution. 
​

Steel roll dies also create clear, permanent marks and are strong enough to mark a wide range of materials such as metal, plastic and wood. 

Custom Steel Stamps, Inserts, Segments and Dies

You can also get custom steel stamps, steel inserts, steel segments, shank stamps and various stamping dies that allow you to direct part mark just about anything.
​

Custom stamps, inserts, and segments can be made for marking on flat, curved, concave or convex surfaces - for stamping part numbers, patent numbers, trade names, trademarks, special lettering or other data.
