Wire Marking Type
Wire Marking Type with Concave Character
Concave (curved face) brass type is ideal for marking a wide range of insulated wire and other curved surfaces. Our wire marking type is manufactured specially to fit Kingsley® and Ackerman-Gould® marking machines*.
Available in a range of sizes optimized for marking outside diameters between 0.035” and 0.350”. Select “V” series for vertical reading type and “H” series for horizontal reading type.
*Effective November 2022, new orders of wire marking type with concave character will no longer be chrome plated.
