Sharrow Lifting Products manufactures and sells a full line of lifting slings, rigging equipment, tie-down equipment, and other specialty lifting devices. They need a rugged direct part marking method to permanently imprint a model number and other part identification information on the metal components of their products. When their old hand stamps started to chip and pieces were flying off the stamp when hit they knew they needed to find a better solution fast.
Thad Miller, Sharrow Lifting Products Safety Director, recently ordered a Durable Technologies number set of 3/8" hevi-bevl steel handstamps along with a Safety First handstamp holder. They had some trouble with the first holder chipping (the anvil area that you strike with a hammer) when he was using a hammer from another supplier. Once they started using the Durable Technologies two pound OE hammer all of the problems went away.

States create weights and measures standards so that businesses and consumers can ensure that the things they are creating and buying are measured accurately and consistently. The Wisconsin Department of Weights and Measures is required to permanently mark a lead seal for each cast iron weight they produce. This seal is the last step in the verification and authentication process and permanently marks the seal and weight with the state initials and year. This seal ensures that no one can tamper with the weight and the seal is the last thing done to broadcast to the world that this is an accurate and official weight from the state of WI.
