What is the difference between Self-Inking, Gel Pre-Inked and Flash Pre-Inked Stamps?
A Self-Inking Stamp is simply a rubber stamp placed in a spring-loaded stamp body which rotates to an internal ink pad after each use. Self-Inking stamps are fast, clean, easy-to-use stamps ideal for rapid, repetitive stamping.

Gel Pre-Inked Stamps deliver thousands of clean, crisp imprints without the use of a stamp pad. The ink is actually held in tiny, micro porous cavities in the letters themselves. Just press and the ink is released for a perfect impression, time after time. Gel Pre-Inked Stamps won’t dry out or evaporate and the mount adjusts for lighter and darker impressions.
Flash Pre-Inked Stamps offers high-quality impressions long before re-inking is needed. Available in a variety of sizes from small to extra large, they feature a premium, soft-touch handle and an advanced re-inking system that is simple and mess-free.
