| Interchangeable Steel Type Overview |
Interchangeable Steel Type (IST) and Typeholders
Provides the perfect answer for all batch and general purpose marking.
Simply build a series of characters into a holder and produce a mark quickly with uniform legibility.
- Precision ground blanks to give clear marks of consistent depth.
- Clear character styles for a quality mark Hardened to 59-63 Rockwell C to give optimum life, and safety in use.
- Nickel plated - resists rust and gives good appearance
- Manufactured to quality system ISO 9001:2000
- Type can be used in a hand holder (to be hit with a hammer), or, for faster throughput, can be used in a machine holder (to be used in a press).
- Choice of three different ranges, each with its own blank size.
- Lowstress available for applications that dictate that lower stress levels are introduced into the component being marked.
- Can be purchased as a complete kit, or as single pieces and holders Kits supplied in a strong plastic case with components for accurate storage and easy character selection.

- Safety note - as with all hand tools, we recommend the use of appropriate safety protection.
- Safety glasses and gloves should be used at all times.
