About Character Height
When you look at the face of a stamp, you'll notice the character is raised. The distance between the upper and lower raised ridges is known as the character height. This height is used to measure stamp size. If a stamp does not have a size marking on the shank, measure the character height to order the correct size.
The actual impression a stamp makes is larger than its character height and varies depending upon how hard you strike the stamp, the hardness of the material, and wear.
Raised-Character Metal Stamps
Create raised lettering similar to a license plate with these reverse-face stamps. Impressions are made on the backside of metals for an embossed character on the front. Works well on casting molds and in high temperature applications where the lacquer used with recessed characters would melt.
Choose from 0-9, A-Z, and &.
