{"product_id":"slagletters-10mm","title":"Stamping letters A-Z 10 mm","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith this set of letter punches you can stamp an impression into metal, leather, plastic or wood. The letters are 10 mm high, which gives a clearly legible impression on workpieces where you want to be able to read the text from a distance. The set contains all letters A through Z, plus the \u0026amp; symbol.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUse and application\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA letter punch has the letter on one end and a striking face on the other. You hold the punch with one hand above the workpiece and strike the back with a hammer using your other hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake the punch you need from the set and place it upright on the material.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHold the punch with one hand and pick up the hammer with the other.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrike the striking face with moderate force, so the impression is made in the material in one go.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is how you put a company name, a maker's mark or a text into a product.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterial and hardness\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA punch should always be harder than the workpiece. If it isn't, the punch gets damaged and the impression doesn't come out properly. These letter punches have a hardness of HRC 58-60, or 120 kg\/mm² at the tip of the letter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor metal, that hardness is why the punches keep their shape and the impression stays sharp. For leather, such a high hardness isn't strictly necessary, but a set that can handle metal works just as well on leather. That way you don't have to buy anything extra later if you switch materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypeface\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe letters are in DIN 1451, a sans-serif typeface with a clean design. That reads well in metal, where fine serifs quickly close up when struck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat else you'll need\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBesides the punches, you'll need a hammer with a good grip to work accurately. Finger protection is a sensible addition: you place the punch in it, use it to hold the punch upright and avoid the risk of hitting your fingers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e 26 letters A through Z, plus the \u0026amp; symbol\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLetter height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTypeface:\u003c\/strong\u003e DIN 1451\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e hardened steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness:\u003c\/strong\u003e HRC 58-60, 120 kg\/mm²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e metal, leather, plastic and wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Parrot Shopping","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57979129758079,"sku":"800000137","price":87.23,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0936\/5366\/4127\/files\/slagletters-a-z-10-mm-vooraanzicht.jpg?v=1786655507","url":"https:\/\/parrotshopping.com\/en\/products\/stamping-letters-a-z-10-mm","provider":"Parrot Shopping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
