Hot Stamp Dies
ETCHED
MAGNESIUM
Photo-etched magnesium dies are commonly used for hot stamping on plastic, leather, cardboard, paper and wood. Magnesium is relatively soft and the best choice for short runs and low cost.
Copper Dies: Best for medium imprint runs. more » ETCHED
COPPER
¼” (.250”) thick, photo-etched .025” - .035” deep and machine routed .070” deep in background area. Copper wears better than magnesium, but are not etched as deeply. Good for hot stamping, embossing and branding plastic, wood and leather with fine detail. Can be mounted onto a riser block if required. Brass Dies: Best for medium to long imprint runs. more » ETCHED BRASS
¼” (.250”) thick, photo-etched .250” - .030” deep and machine relieved .090” deep in background areas. Brass wears better than copper or magnesium, but does not etch as deeply as either one. Good for hot stamping flat surfaces. ENGRAVED BRASS We can make the blank any thickness. ¼”, ½”, ¾” and 1” thick materials are standard. Engraved brass offers durability and the engraving depth can be controlled to suit the application. Excellent for hot stamping fine detail on plastic. Deeply engraved brass is a good choice for branding wood and leather. Can be shaped to fit contoured substrates. Steel Dies: Best for long imprint runs. more » ENGRAVED STEEL
Like engraved brass, we make engraved steel dies in any configuration. Hardened tool steel is the most durable material and is a good choice for long production runs. Silicone Dies: Best for contoured or textured surfaces or tipping. more » SILICONE RUBBER
The best material for many hot stamping applications. Rubber can conform itself to slight surface sinks or irregularities and reduces rejections. Contoured Dies: Available in brass, steel, or silicone. more » CONTOURED DIES Send us your part and we will make a die to fit it perfectly in brass, steel or silicone rubber.
