C.h. Hanson 12438 Facility Graphic Symbol Stencil

Product Description

The C.H. HANSON 12438 is a large-format facility stencil designed for marking floors, walls, and surfaces in industrial and commercial environments. This graphic and symbol-only stencil produces bold, clear visual indicators without text characters, making it suitable for safety markings, directional guides, and regulatory compliance signage. At 43 inches of character height and an overall height of 46 inches, this stencil is built for high-visibility applications where legibility from a distance is critical. The 0.015-inch material thickness provides a rigid, repeatable edge for consistent paint transfer across multiple uses.

This stencil is used in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, loading docks, and other industrial spaces where floor and surface marking is required. It suits facility maintenance crews, safety coordinators, and contractors responsible for OSHA-compliant or in-house safety marking programs. The graphic and symbol format allows use across multilingual work environments where image-based communication is preferred over text.

Installation Notes

Application is typically performed by facility maintenance staff or safety contractors using spray paint or a paint roller applied over the stencil face. Secure the stencil firmly against the surface before applying paint to prevent bleed and ensure sharp edges. Allow paint to tack slightly before lifting the stencil to avoid smearing. Follow all applicable facility safety and OSHA surface-marking guidelines for color coding and symbol standards.
