YC616 Lowercase Letter Steel Stamps
YC616 offers a full a–z set of 27 lowercase letters (incl. &) for brand marks, model and serial numbers and part identification — clear and permanent. Available in two height designs: 616a (uniform height) and 616b (proportional scaling), to suit your marking needs.
Suitable materials: For identification marks on all kinds of metal and material — general metals, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, parts, nameplates, tools and leather.
Core Features
Made of CR-V (6150) chrome-vanadium steel.
The character head reaches HRC 58–62 for lasting, clear marks; the striking end is tempered to HRC 38–46 to absorb impact and prevent cracking.
Choose 616a (uniform height, neatly aligned) or 616b (proportional scaling, close to print style) to suit your layout.
Font and size are marked on the side of the stamp for fast identification during work.
The surface is sandblasted for a better anti-slip grip and greater durability.
Two height designs · 616a uniform vs 616b proportional
YC616a · Uniform height
All letters share the same height for neat, consistent alignment — ideal where equal-height marking is needed.
YC616b · Proportional scaling
Heights scale by letter proportion with natural ascenders and descenders, for a print-like, refined look.
