Laser Aluminum Custom Engraved Halter Plate with Optional Durable Finish

These halter tags are 3/4" by 4" long and made from laser aluminum which has a optional durable finish that is not as easy to scratch as our other products. They come with the option of rivets or chicago screws to attach to your halter, or you can choose to receive just the plate.

Our laser aluminum is real aluminum metal and is coated in either a standard or durable paint. The engraving is much thicker in font than our standard aluminum as it is engraved with our laser engraver. The lettering is quite bold and easy to read.

Our standard paint colours for laser aluminum are red or blue, but we also have the durable finish options which are gold or silver. These are both the same thickness, but the paint on the durable finish options is more resistant to scratching and a better choice for daily use halters.

These plates are engraved with a laser engraver which burns and etches the letters into the paint. The letters will be silver on the standard paint, and black on the durable finish paints.

Each plate can fit up to two lines of text and up to 15 characters per line, including spaces. The text you want will be copy and pasted over to the engraver so please check your work for errors and capitalization. We recommend engraving in all capitals, as this looks best. If you do not want all upper case, just keep in mind that lower case letters with hanging parts like j,g, and y can make spacing look odd in order to avoid collision with edges and other lines of text.



ATTACHMENT OPTIONS:

• Rivets: 3 sets of rivets will be sent - 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm to fit a variety of leather and nylon halters.
• Chicago Screws: 3 sets of screws will be sent - 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" to fit a variety of leather and nylon halters.
• None (small hole): If you already have left over rivets, you can save by having no attachments sent. This size hole is too small for chicago screws.
• None (larger hole): If you already have left over chicago screws, you can save by having no attachments sent. This size hole is 1/4" and fits most chicago screws.

ATTACHMENT INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Hold plate up to the surface you wish to attach to in desired position.
2. Mark holes using a pencil, pen, etc. and remove plate
3. Punch holes on the marks using a leather hole punch or desired device
4. Align plate with newly punched holes and thread a rivet or chicago screw (tube end) through one side
5. For rivets: Place cap on the other end of the rivet and gently push rivets together. A hammer should be used to close the rivets, take care not to crush them for appearance reasons. It is important that the correct size rivet is used so that the plate is not pinched, or loose. A long rivet can also attach crooked.
6. For chicago screws: use a flat head screw driver to screw the threaded end of the chicago screw into the tube. Be careful not to cross-thread and ensure it is tight.
7. Repeat on other side
8. If you feel your plate is not secure enough, locktight, nail polish, or a small dot of super glue can be used inside the rivets/ on the chicago screw thread when installing them to keep them secure. Be sure to work quickly so it does not dry prior to installation. We always recommend this on plates which will go on halters worn full time.
