Meet the C.H. Hanson 10071 Stencil Set-Letter/Number 2" Brass, a purpose-built labeling solution engineered for reliability in warehouses, workshops, and job sites. This 2-inch brass stencil set combines durability with precise typography, making it the go-to choice for clear, professional markings on crates, pallets, boxes, aisles, floors, and more.

With a heritage dating back to 1866, C.H. Hanson stands for craftsmanship you can trust. The Reese® interlocking brass stencils deliver consistently aligned letters and even spacing, so every label looks deliberate and legible. Crafted from 28-gauge brass, these stencils resist bending under demanding use and stand up to routine cleaning with paint thinner or ink solvent, thanks to brass’s natural resistance to chemical deterioration and corrosion. And when your labeling needs evolve, we can tailor a custom solution to fit your project.

The 2" character height strikes the perfect balance between visibility and compact footprint, making it easy to read from typical working distances without overwhelming adjacent labels. Whether you’re marking shipping crates, naming aisles for easy navigation, or labeling floors for safety and workflow, this set delivers crisp, durable marks that stay legible even in busy environments.

Who this is for: facilities managers, warehouse operatives, construction crews, shop owners, and DIY enthusiasts who require fast, repeatable labeling with a professional look. It’s equally at home on busy shop floors and in organized storage spaces where clarity matters for safety and efficiency.

Why it matters: the interlocking Reese system keeps characters aligned so labels look uniform, while 28-gauge brass provides a balance of rigidity and flexibility for consistent stamping without tearing surfaces. The 2" size ensures legible results on medium-sized surfaces, and the brass’s chemical resistance means you can clean up quickly without compromising the stencil edges.

Usage tips: align letters using the spacers for even word spacing, apply even pressure with a steady hand, and use your preferred ink or paint. After marking, wipe away any excess immediately with paint thinner or ink solvent to prevent smudges, and dry before reusing. When not in use, store the set in a dry place to keep the metal pristine for years of reliable labeling.

If your labeling needs extend beyond the stock configuration, remember that C.H. Hanson offers custom solutions to fit your specific application, ensuring you get precisely the stencil coverage you require for your project.
