Choose Only the Best Quality Self Inking Stamps to Create the Best Impression

You see self inking stamps in offices and in briefcases of executives. It is so ubiquitous that we do not give it a second glance. However, if you are an executive and make extensive use of these stamps it helps to know more about them in order to pick one that is of the highest quality. 

Not all self-inking stamps are the same

A look at patents filed over the years will show that many such stamps claim to have some unique property or the other relating to the stamp and stamping insert, the pad, the mechanical design, sealing arrangement or the material of the inking pad. Little things do matter a lot when it comes to quality of the self inking stamps and these stamps do vary in quality and price. Some are made entirely of plastic while the better ones have more of metal. 

The economy range 

You will observe that self inking stamps in the economy range are usually made of plastics and are lightweight. To their credit, plastic does allow for moulding of rather stylish shapes so it looks good. However, there may be performance trade offs in that the movement may not be quite as smooth as that of the higher end models. Durability is another aspect but they are priced so reasonably that you can easily afford to buy a replacement a year or two later. 

The mid segment

The mid segment in self inking stamps exhibits better construction and a rugged design. The stamp may make use of metals and plastics. Movement is smoother and the quality of rubber used in the stamp is much better. It will last longer and the self inking pad too is well designed for near flawless performance. 

The high end self inking stamps

Trodat is unquestionably the best known international brand in self inking stamps with Colop being another brand leader. Observe these two brand stamps and there is a visible difference in the quality. The finish and design is much better. There is more use of metal and there is precision and fine tolerance in manufacturing. Activation is easy with a gentle push resulting in near-noiseless operation. Impressions are perfect with no ink smudging or uneven inking. There will be no ink leak as is likely to happen with cheaper models. The rubber in the stamp does not dry out or become distorted and you will get perfect impressions for years using the high end top quality self inking stamps. 

Does it matter whether you use high quality self inking stamps or low quality ones? It does. The better ones give near perfect impressions that look like they are printed. It creates a better impression about you and your business. Trodat or Colop stamps from Addprint Rubber Stamps last longer too and are maintenance-free.
