Brand your woodworking projects with confidence.

Our high-quality brass branding heads withstand heat up to 1165° F (630° C), which is ideal when you need hotter temperatures for marking dense and hard woods. Also, our custom branding heads are optimized to brand both against the grain and with the grain of the wood you are marking. That way your custom design will leave a solid mark whether you are marking the edge or surface of a project.

These custom branding irons are available with fire-heated handles, however the branding heads are interchangeable. You can attach different branding heads to your fire-heated handle. Or you can attach the branding head of your choice to an electric heating tool. This heating tool is useful if your goal is to make multiple consistent marks.

Our CNC manufacturing process will translate your design into a branding iron with unmatched clarity. We use precise specifications to ensure your branding head leaves quality marks. This is a high priority for us--because your wood brand is more than a label; it's a work of art.

Tips for branding wood:

  • It takes a higher degree of heat and a slightly longer dwell time to brand hardwoods such as oak.
  • Branded marks on soft wood tend to bleed, but you can easily sand away the “halo” surrounding your branded image.
  • Using an electric heating tool in combination with a temperature control unit makes the task simpler. We offer electric heating tools compatible with 120V and 220V-240V outlets.
  • For high volume branding, using a drill press mounted electric heating tool increases accuracy and efficiency.
