When dependable, long-lasting numerals are a must on the job site, the C.H. Hanson 10014 Stencil Set-Numbers 4" Brass 15 Pieces is built to perform. Since 1866, C.H. Hanson has earned a reputation for precision and durability, and this 4-inch brass set continues that legacy with a purpose-built design for professional labeling on crates, pallets, boxes, aisles, floors, and more.

Designed around the traditional Reese® interlocking system, these 28-gauge brass stencils lock into place for crisp, repeatable markings. The interlocking feature minimizes gaps and misalignment, so your numbers read clearly every time—even on rough surfaces like wood pallets or textured concrete floors. Brass’s natural resistance to chemical deterioration means you can clean up quickly with paint thinner or ink solvent, keeping your stencils ready for the next project without corrosion concerns.

Key advantages

• 4" tall brass numerals provide bold, highly legible marks for warehouse tagging, floor indicators, and shipping labels.

• Interlocking Reese design ensures rapid layout and consistent spacing, reducing setup time during multi-character labeling tasks.
• Chemical and corrosion resistant brass can be cleaned easily with paint thinner or ink solvent, extending stencil life in tough environments.
