ALPHABET STENCILS & LARGE LETTER STENCILS

Alphabet Stencil Sizes

Our alphabet stencils are available in a wide range of sizes, from ½ inch up to 44 inches, so you can choose the right letter height for virtually any project. Smaller sizes work well for signs, crafts, labeling, and detailed work, while our large letter stencils are ideal for warehouses, pavement marking, parking areas, walls, shipping crates, industrial applications, and oversized signs.

Available sizes: ½", 1", 2", 3", 4", 5", 6", 7", 8", 9", 10", 12", 18", 20", 24", 30", 36" and 44".

Stencil size refers to the approximate height of the uppercase letter. The overall stencil sheet will be larger to provide a border around the character for easier positioning and painting.

Choose the Right Stencil Material

Our alphabet stencils are precision cut from durable, reusable Mylar and are available in three thicknesses. Choose the material that best fits your project and how you plan to use the stencil.

• 7.5 mil Mylar – Our most flexible option. Easy to position and works well on curved or uneven surfaces. A good choice for general-purpose stenciling and projects where flexibility is important.
• 10 mil Mylar – A great all-around choice that offers a balance of flexibility and durability. Ideal for most signs, lettering, painting, and repeated-use applications.
• 14 mil Mylar – Our thickest and most durable material. Best for larger stencils, frequent reuse, and industrial applications where a heavier, more rigid stencil is preferred.

All three materials are reusable, washable, and suitable for use with a variety of paints and application methods. For 36-inch and 44-inch stencil sets, choose 10 mil or 14 mil Mylar; 7.5 mil is not available in those two sizes.
