Electric Engravers

Plastic Body

Stainless Steel Body

Freehand permanent markings on a variety of materials. These engravers are often used to mark tools and equipment for easy identification and tracking. Adjust the stroke speed to control the depth of your marks. Low stroke speed creates shallow lines and is best for soft materials, such as plastic and wood. High stroke speed creates deep lines and is best for hard materials, such as metal.

Stainless Steel Body—More durable than plastic to stand up to wear over time. These engravers last longer and won’t get damaged in your toolbox.

Carbide—The standard choice for engraving a variety of materials. Carbide tips are hard enough to mark metal and can also be used on plastic and wood.

Steel Tip—Ideal for engraving soft materials, such as plastic, wood, and leather. Steel tips are less durable than carbide tips.

Diamond Tip—The most durable tip material. Diamond tips are the best choice for marking extra-hard materials, such as ceramic, glass, and stone.

Air-Powered Engravers

More powerful than electric engravers, these engravers let you create the same markings in fewer passes and with less effort. Adjust the stroke speed with a continuous dial to control the depth of your marks. Low stroke speed creates shallow lines and is best for soft materials, such as wood and plastic. High stroke speed creates deep lines and is best for hard materials, such as metal. These engravers need lubrication to work properly.

Steel Tip—A good choice for marking soft materials, such as plastic, wood, and leather. These tips are less durable than carbide tips. They require a tip holder (sold separately).

Flat Tip—Grind these tips into a shape that works for your application.

Angled-Chisel Tip—A great choice for cleaning weld beads.

Flat-Chisel Tip—Best for scaling and deburring.

Deep Marking Air-Powered Engravers

Our fastest, deepest-cutting handheld engravers create marks that stay crisp and clear, even with wear and tear over time. With 30,000 strokes per minute, they can also make deep markings on hard materials. However, you can’t adjust their high stroke speed, so they may be too fast for shallow marking and engraving legibly on soft materials. These engravers need lubrication to work properly.

Carbide Tip—Hard enough to mark metal and can also be used on plastic and wood.
