Shiny Self-Inking Date Stamp S-300 / S-400
Shiny self-inking date stamps S-300 and S-400 offer a dedicated stamping solution that streamlines the processing of incoming correspondence, administrative documentation, and dispatch tracking across enterprises, government agencies, and manufacturing facilities. Featuring an integrated ink pad and an automated flipping mechanism, the unit simplifies date marking and supports standard internal record-keeping procedures.
Key Features of Shiny Self-Inking Date Stamps
Self-Inking Mechanism with Integrated Ink Pad
The Shiny S-300 and S-400 series feature a convenient self-inking flipping mechanism. After each impression, the rubber date band automatically flips backward to rest against the integrated ink pad housed inside the unit. This enclosed design keeps desks tidy, prevents ink from touching hands, and eliminates the need for a separate external stamp pad.
Dual Language Formats in Vietnamese and English
To support the operational standards of domestic firms and multinational enterprises alike, the stamp is available in two distinct formatting layouts:
Vietnamese Format: Displays the date in a day - month - year numeric sequence separated by hyphens (e.g., 29 - 6 - 2011).
English Format: Displays the day, month abbreviation in letters, and year (e.g., 29 JUN 2011), suitable for import/export documentation, bilingual agreements, and international commercial invoices.

Smooth Rotating Wheels and Accurate Alignment
The character bands are adjusted using independent mechanical turning wheels. Designed with grooved rims for an easy grip, the wheels shift smoothly between positions, allowing users to update the date daily without shifting neighboring characters out of alignment.
Sturdy Body Construction with Balanced Base
The outer casing is manufactured from durable engineering-grade plastic built to endure repetitive downward cycles in busy administrative offices or logistics checkpoints. The stable base keeps the stamp centered over target fields on forms, helping prevent slanting or blurred imprints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Does the Shiny S-300 / S-400 self-inking date stamp come with ink already installed?
Yes, the product includes a built-in ink pad inside the casing. It is ready to use immediately out of the box without requiring a separate stamp pad.
2. What is the difference between model S-300 and model S-400?
The primary difference lies in the font character height:
Model S-300: 3 mm character height, suitable for tight spaces, small form fields, and compact labels.
Model S-400: 4 mm character height, offering larger visibility for standard business correspondence, folder covers, and receipt vouchers.
3. How do you re-ink or refresh the stamp when impressions begin to fade?
When the imprint fades after prolonged use, press the stamp body down slightly, push the side lock buttons to release the ink cartridge, apply a few drops of genuine Shiny refill ink evenly across the pad, and slide the cartridge back into place.
4. Can this stamp be used on glossy plastic bags or metal surfaces?
The standard integrated ink pad uses water-based ink formulated for porous paper documents. For non-porous surfaces such as plastic film, metal, or glossy coatings, a dry felt pad paired with fast-drying industrial specialty ink is recommended.
