Numberall Stamp and Tool Company is proud to offer products that meet all of your marking needs while saving you time and money. Our rotary stamps are ideal for low-volume marking of individual characters or dates. They are handheld, portable tools that can be used on any job site. This is why they are frequently used to mark boundary lines, utility pole tags, and keys.

Numberall - Rotary Stamps - Model 36B

No matter what the task, our rotary stamps save you time. By using our Single Wheel Rotary Stamp, you eliminate searching for up to 40 individual hand stamps. Single wheel rotary stamps are available individually, as a letter set in a convenient plastic pouch, or as a deluxe set packed in a sturdy wooden box. The deluxe single wheel rotary set contains three individual hand stamps, for a total of 40 characters. Even though we offer sets of characters, you can order the size and number of characters you need.

Best of all, these characters are easy to change by simply rotating the character wheel with your thumb and forefinger. To determine where you will be marking and in which order the characters will appear, the wheels are indexed with the character configuration on the side of the wheel facing the user. Along with saving you time by being easy to use, our rotary stamps make your markings more accurate.

If you will only be stamping a date with a month and year, like a manufacture date, we offer the Model 36B Rotary Date Stamp. This stamp only uses the characters required for four-digit date codes (MMYY). Originally designed for the battery industry, it can be used on any item on which a date code is needed. The Model 36B can be used for years to come as replacement wheels are available for future dates.

Made from high quality, heat-treated alloy tool steel, these stamps can withstand decades of severe usage. To ensure that each product meets Numberall’s high quality standards, each product is carefully inspected and tested throughout the manufacturing process.

Like any of our products, our rotary stamps can be customized to your specifications. You can order different characters or shanks depending on how you plan to use your rotary stamp. Please make sure to specify which options you’d like when placing your order. If you already own one of our rotary stamps, we also offer replacement parts and service.

How to Space Text Using Model 40B

How to Space Text Using Model 40B

Numberall Stamp and Tool Company is proud to offer solutions for all of your marking needs. The Model 40B is a popular choice for stamping data tags or pet ID tags. The Model 40B will single space, double space, or not space at all depending on how you adjust the machine. Here is how to adjust your machine or space the text.

To start, here is how to space text using Model 40B:

Numberall Space Text Using Model 40B

  1. Before making any adjustments, make sure you don’t start stamping the line with the first pull of the operating handle.
  2. Push the table over, then pull the handle down until you hear a click. Go about halfway to produce a blank space.
  3. Return the handle and turn the knob to the desired character to start stamping.

If you need to make adjustments to Model 40B for spacing, here is how you will make them:

  1. Remove the entire table assembly. To do this, push the red handle down and pull the table off to the left.
  2. Check the tip of the spacing pawl. It should have an edge on it and not be rounded over. If it’s rounded over, you can use a file to put an edge on it.
  3. Move the red handle up and down to ensure the spacing pawl moves up and down. If it doesn’t, you may have a missing spacing pawl spring.
  4. Turn the table over and check the spacing rack to ensure that the teeth are the same all the way across. They shouldn’t have any grooves or worn spots in them.
  5. Make sure the friction spring is installed on the spacing rack.
  6. After examining the spacing pawl and rack, the spacing adjustment screw may have to be adjusted.
  7. Turn the depth of impression screw out to ensure the press is making a complete stroke and make sure you’re hitting the tab.
  8. If the spacing adjustment screw needs to be changed, loosen the lock nut with a 7/16 wrench. After making adjustments, remember to tighten the lock nut.
  9. If double spacing, turn the screw out to raise the table at the resting position.
  10. If not spacing, turn the screw in to lower the table to the resting positon.

At Numberall, we’re proud to design equipment that is adjustable to the customers’ needs, saving them time and money. If you need help making these adjustments or with anything else related to your machine, we’re happy to help you. We offer advice on how to use all of our products. For more visual learners, we’ve created a series of videos to do this. If you have any questions about the Model 40B or would like to place an order, please contact us.

How to Use Numberall’s Model 301 to Stamp Round Parts

No matter what shape or size the item you want to mark is, Numberall Stamp and Tool Company has a machine for you. Flat pieces are the most common items that are stamped but we also have equipment to stamp round parts. Our Model 301 is the most economical solution for marking round or cylindrical parts.

Here is how to use your Model 301 to stamp round parts:

  3. Move the sliding head over the part. Turn the adjustment knob until the marking device touches the part.
  4. Preset the stamping depth by moving the adjustment knob in or out.
  5. To mark the part, pull the handle backward, then forward. You can mark in either direction.

Before you begin stamping, you will need a marking device to use in the Model 301. Fortunately, many of our numbering heads are compatible with it. The Model 23 Type Holder, Model 70P Non-Automatic Numbering Head, and Model 50P Automatic Numbering Head can be used in the Model 301. The Model 301 also comes in an air powered version that uses a pneumatic cylinder rather than being operated manually by the user.
