Custom Logo Branding: 50W Fiber Laser & Deep Laser + Color Fill
Because metal surfaces are ultra-smooth and chemically inert, surface silk-screen/UV inks lack adhesion and easily peel off. Our factory recommends permanent 50W Fiber Laser Engraving (+$0.15–$0.30/pc, $50 sample) or Deep Laser Engraving + Enamel Color Fill (+$0.35–$0.60/pc, $80–$150 sample).

Custom Logo Branding Specification & Cost Matrix
Why does our factory NOT recommend silk-screen or UV surface printing on metal fidgets? Polished and plated metal surfaces are ultra-smooth and chemically inert, so surface inks suffer from poor adhesion and peel off under thumb friction. Instead, FidgetSupply recommends: (1) 50W Fiber Laser Engraving for permanent monochrome logos (+$0.15–$0.30/pc, $0 setup, 100 pcs MOQ, paid sample fee: $50 USD), and (2) Deep Laser Engraving + Color Fill for colored logos (+$0.35–$0.60/pc, $0 setup, 100–200 pcs MOQ, paid sample fee: $80–$150 USD), where the laser carves a recessed cavity filled with cured enamel that never peels.
50W Fiber Laser vs. Deep Laser + Color Fill (Why Silk-Screen Is Not Recommended)
| Branding Parameter | 1. 50W Fiber Laser Engraving (★ Recommended Monochrome) | 2. Deep Laser + Color Fill (★ Recommended Colored Logo) | 3. Silk-Screen / UV Surface Print (⚠️ Not Recommended on Metal) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Factory Recommendation | ★ Recommended for Monochrome Logos | ★ Recommended for Colored Logos | ⚠️ Not Recommended (Peels off smooth, chemically inert metal) |
| Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) | 100 pcs per SKU | 100 – 200 pcs per SKU | N/A (Use Deep Laser + Color Fill instead) |
| Setup Fee | $0.00 (Free Digital Setup) | $0.00 Laser Setup | N/A |
| Unit Logo Add-On Cost | +$0.15 – $0.30 USD / pc | +$0.35 – $0.60 USD / pc (Deep laser cavity + color fill) | Prone to peeling complaints |
| Paid Custom Sample Fee (10–15 Days) | $50 USD (Standard Laser Sample) | $80 – $150 USD (Deep Laser + Color Fill Sample) | Not recommended |
| Adhesion & Physical Mechanism | Permanent micron-level laser ablation inside metal substrate | Laser carves a 0.15–0.25mm recessed cavity filled with cured enamel below the friction plane | Smooth, chemically inert metal lacks ink adhesion; ink peels off under thumb rub |
| Wear & Sweat Durability | 10/10 Permanent (Never fades or peels) | 9.8/10 Recessed metal walls protect color fill from thumb friction | 4.0/10 Surface ink delaminates on smooth metal |
| Recommended Ready Molds | FS-047, FS-013, FS-009, FS-012, FS-064, FS-075, FS-086, FS-096 | FS-125, FS-047, FS-013, FS-001, FS-026, FS-075, FS-086, FS-128 | None on bare/plated metal (Use only on EVA pouches) |

Frequently Asked Questions — Fiber Laser, Deep Laser Color Fill & Sampling Fees
Polished, electroplated, anodized, and PVD-coated metal surfaces are ultra-smooth and chemically inert. Surface-applied silk-screen or UV ink lacks mechanical adhesion ("bite") on smooth metal and easily peels or flakes off under continuous thumb friction. Therefore, our factory recommends Fiber Laser Engraving for monochrome logos and Deep Laser Engraving + Color Fill for colored logos.
For colored logos on metal, we first use a 50W fiber laser to deep-carve a recessed cavity (0.15–0.25mm deep) into the metal shell, and then fill the recessed cavity with thermally cured colored enamel. Because the color sits below the metal friction plane, it never peels off. Unit cost is +$0.35 to $0.60 USD per piece (MOQ 100–200 pcs).
Custom logo sampling is paid and takes 10 to 15 days: Standard Fiber Laser Engraving sample fee is $50 USD, and Deep Laser Engraving + Color Fill sample fee is $80 to $150 USD depending on color count and SKU. A 1:1 digital vector placement proof is provided free within 12 hours prior to sampling.
For monochrome Fiber Laser Engraving, our MOQ is 100 pieces per SKU with $0.00 setup fee and a unit branding cost of +$0.15 to $0.30 USD per piece. Blank unbranded stock starts at 50 pieces per SKU.
Instead of cutting a bespoke die-casting mold ($3,000–$4,500), you select from our 140 existing ready-to-produce metal molds—specifically our 28 flat-surface Logo-Ready models—and apply your brand via Fiber Laser Engraving or Deep Laser Engraving + Color Fill.
Top flat-surface models include FS-125 (Smooth Soap-Box Slider, 42×26mm zone), FS-047 (Minimalist 6063 Aluminum Slider, 40×22mm zone), FS-001 (Poker King Slider, 38×25mm zone), FS-026 (Bottle Opener Slider), FS-013 (304 Stainless Coin, Ø28mm zone), and FS-009 (Knurled Twist Top, Ø16mm cap).
Please send vector files in Adobe Illustrator (.AI), Encapsulated PostScript (.EPS), vector .PDF, or .SVG format with fonts converted to outlines and Pantone (PMS) color callouts if choosing Deep Laser Engraving + Color Fill.
Yes. Our laser workstations are equipped with synchronized 360-degree CNC rotary indexing chucks that engrave distortion-free logos and serial numbers around cylindrical gourds, kinetic eggs, and the inner/outer rims of mechanical rings.
Yes. Our Galvo fiber laser software supports automated CSV variable-data marking, allowing you to serialize limited-edition drops (001/500) or personalize individual corporate recipient names for just +$0.20/pc.
For 3D sculpted models (such as FS-010, FS-032, or FS-114), we either laser-etch your micro-logo onto the internal sliding track plate / side bezel, or apply your full-size brand logo to the included Black EVA Shockproof Zipper Case or Window Metal Tin Box.
