Custom Steel Stamps for Industrial Part Marking and Brand Identification

When your name, logo, or identifier is stamped into metal, it stays there. Through heat, coating, finishing, and decades of use — a custom steel stamp makes sure your mark is never lost, overlooked, or questioned.

C.H. Hanson custom steel stamps are manufactured in the USA and engineered for professionals in manufacturing, fabrication, welding, oil and gas, aerospace, construction, and the trades who need a permanent, legible mark the first time, every time.

Industrial professionals and field trades use custom steel stamps for one primary reason: accountability. Whether you are marking your company's name into finished parts, identifying tools on a jobsite, or meeting traceability requirements for a compliance program, a custom stamp gives you a permanent record that cannot be removed, altered, or confused.

A custom logo or company name stamped directly into your product separates your work from everyone else's. For fabricators, blade smiths, tool makers, and manufacturers, a stamped mark is a signature — proof that the part came from you and meets your standard.

On busy jobsites and production floors, tools walk. A custom stamp with your company name or identification code makes ownership clear and recovery easier. Many contractors and trade shops stamp every tool before it ships to the field.

Industries including aerospace, oil and gas, piping, and pressure vessel fabrication require permanent, legible identification on components throughout the supply chain. Custom stamps support ISO, API, and ASME traceability requirements by delivering a mark that survives heat treatment, painting, and years of service.

Custom stamps can include fixed text, logo marks, inspection symbols, and unique identifiers that tie a finished part back to a heat number, production run, or quality record. For operations where traceability is not optional, a custom stamp is the most cost-effective and reliable solution available.

Need to stamp standard letters, numbers, or date codes that change frequently?
Our premade stamps are built for exactly that. Interchangeable type sets let you configure custom text on the fly without ordering a custom die. Browse our stamp sets to find the right size and grade for your application.

C.H. Hanson custom steel stamps work across a wide range of materials common in industrial and field trade applications:

• Aluminum and brass components
• Mild and cold roll steel
• Stainless steel
• Hardened and coated metals
• Water, oil, and hardened steel
• Heat treated materials up to 50 HRC
• Wood and leather (for branding, tooling, and personalization)

Marks remain legible after painting, powder coating, plating, and other finishing processes.

Getting started is straightforward. C.H. Hanson reviews every submission before production begins to make sure size, depth, and configuration are correct for your application.

Imprint height refers to the size of the letters or logo — not the overall size of the stamp body. Selecting the right height depends on the surface area you are marking and the read distance required.

• 3/32" Precision parts, medical instruments, jewelry, small components
• 1/8" to 5/32" Sheet metal, fasteners, blades, hand tools, layout equipment
• 3/16" to 5/16" General fabrication, automotive components, firearm parts
• 3/8" to 1/2" Structural steel, pipe, pressure vessels, heavy equipment
• 5/8" to 1" Large structural weldments, mill products, railroad and infrastructure

Heavy Duty - Everyday Use
Built for everyday use on a broad range of materials. The right choice for fabrication shops, contractors, and manufacturers with standard marking requirements. Performs very well on wood, leather, aluminum, brass, sheet metal, cold roll steel, and stainless steel. Suitable for water, oil, and hardened steel with good results.

Rhino - High Volume / Demanding Applications
Engineered for high-volume and high-impact applications. Delivers excellent performance across every material including heat treated metals up to 50 HRC. The right choice when your marking volume is high, your material is tough, or both. 

A text only stamp is exactly that — plain characters in a straight, horizontal line using a standard font. If your request includes anything beyond that, it qualifies as custom artwork and will require an art file for production. This includes text that follows a curved or circular path, text arranged in an arc or around a logo, any combination of text and graphic elements, borders, outlines, or decorative shapes, and custom or stylized lettering that does not match a standard font.

If you are picturing something closer to a brand mark, badge, or seal rather than a simple line of text, you have a custom artwork request. Not sure which category yours falls into? Upload what you have and our team will review it and let you know exactly what is needed before production begins.
