3D Airplane Lapel Pins

Name: 3D Airplane Lapel Pins
Brand: BEU Gifts

Product Overview

What This Product Is

An aircraft silhouette only works as a badge if the wings, fins and fuselage are modelled rather than outlined. Cast in zinc alloy at 1.57 inch and plated silver or gold, this pin carries the shape in three dimensions, with twin posts on the back so it sits level on a uniform.

Key Benefits

Die casting holds a modelled 3D form that stamping would flatten.
Silver and gold finishes from the same tooling.
Twin posts keep a wide pin from rotating.
No enamel needed, so the form is the design.

Manufacturing and Quality Control

Artwork
Your logo, photo or sketch is redrawn for production free of charge, with the Pantone references written onto the proof.
Tooling
The mould or die is cut once the proof is approved.
Sample
A free physical sample is produced in 3-5 days so colour, finish and fitting are approved in the hand.
Production
Bulk runs in 10-15 days, matched back to the approved sample.
Inspection
Colour match, plating coverage, edge finish and attachment strength are checked before packing.
Packing
Normally 100 to 1000 pieces per PP bag or small box, or packed to your specification.

Comparison

Against a stamped flat pin, casting costs more and is the only way to get a true 3D form. Against soft enamel, this uses no colour at all, which suits an object rather than a logo.

Use Guide

Fit both posts through the fabric before pressing the clutches on.
Polish with a dry cloth to keep the plated high points bright.
Store in the supplied bag so the modelled surfaces do not rub.
