54B076 - Walter Surfox 54x32mm Reusable Marking Stencil

Precision Electrochemical Marking Stencil

The Walter 54B076 is a specialized marking stencil designed for use with electrochemical weld cleaning and marking systems, such as the Walter Surfox series. Measuring 54mm by 32mm, this stencil provides a dedicated area for permanently etching company logos, part numbers, QR codes, or technical specifications onto stainless steel surfaces. Unlike temporary ink or stickers, electrochemical marking alters the surface of the metal to create a dark, high-contrast, or white etched mark that is resistant to heat, chemicals, and mechanical wear.

Constructed from high-quality, durable synthetic mesh, the stencil is engineered to withstand the electrolytic process. The fine mesh allows the electrolyte solution to pass through only where the design dictates, ensuring that every detail of the logo or text is transferred with exceptional clarity and sharpness. This level of precision is critical for industries requiring traceability and professional branding, such as food and beverage manufacturing, pharmaceutical equipment fabrication, and architectural metalwork.

One of the key technical benefits of the Walter 54B076 is its reusability. When handled correctly and cleaned immediately after use to remove electrolyte residue, this stencil can be used hundreds of times, making it a highly economical solution for production runs. The material is flexible enough to conform to flat surfaces and mild curves, ensuring consistent contact between the marking wand (electrode) and the workpiece. This ensures that the current density is applied evenly, preventing hot spots or faded areas in the final mark.

To maintain the integrity of the stencil, it is recommended to store it flat and keep it free from creases. The 54mm x 32mm size is a standard dimension suitable for a wide range of medium-sized identifiers. Whether used with AC mode for dark marking or DC mode for etching, this stencil delivers reliable performance for professional industrial applications.
