Hand Held Numbering Heads

Hand Held Numbering Heads

Our hand held, manual change numbering heads are typically used for lower volume marking requirements. The wheels are manually advanced with a spanner wrench and provide accurate and permanent marking. The same character sequence is retained after each impression is made, unless changed by the operator with spanner wrench. They provide an ideal solution for stamping repetitive sequences such as product codes, part numbers, serial numbers, etc. 

Our hand held numbering heads are available in a variety of different styles and configurations for both numbering and lettering depending on your application.
