Manual Radial Type Holders
Designed for radially marking flat surfaces, all type holders are machined from tool steel for durability and designed to meet specific customer requirements. Radial step type is used when the entire legend changes. Radial logotype can be used when part of the legend remains constant. A pilot can be provided to guide the holder into marking position. This insures accurate placement of the radial mark. |
