Hot Stamp Supply Company offers high quality
hot stamp and foil printing dies in a variety of materials to
meet your special application. Hot stamping dies are available
in the following material options; magnesium, copper, brass,
steel and silicone rubber. The choice of printing die will depend
on the following factors: quantity of imprints, artwork, stamping
die equipment, product or substrate composition and the surface
features and contour of the item to be decorated.
Magnesium Dies: Best for short imprint runs. +

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. +

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. +

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. +

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. +

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. +

in brass, steel or silicone rubber.
