C.h. Hanson 209518 Steel Number Stamp Character 8

Product Description

The C.H. HANSON 209518 is a machine-made individual steel stamp used for cold-marking the number 8 onto metal, wood, plastic, and similar workpiece materials. The character measures 3/16 inches in height, making it suitable for standard marking applications where legibility and consistency are required. It is manufactured from hardened steel for durability under repeated impact. Trade professionals in fabrication, tool-and-die, maintenance, and metalworking shops use individual character stamps like this one to permanently mark parts, components, and assemblies for identification or traceability.

This stamp is designed for hand or machine press use in industrial and commercial settings. It is a single-character replacement stamp, useful when one character in a set is lost or worn beyond use. The 3/16-inch character size is a common standard in light-to-medium fabrication work, fitting a wide range of bench vise, hand-hammer, and arbor press applications. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working to part-marking or traceability requirements will find this a straightforward single-unit replacement.

Installation Notes

Secure the workpiece firmly before stamping to prevent movement during impact. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses, when striking the stamp with a hammer. Apply the stamp perpendicular to the workpiece surface for a clean, uniform impression. Store stamps in a protective holder or roll to prevent tip damage and maintain impression quality.
