Product Reviews: 13 pc SHARP HOLLOW PUNCH TOOL SET for LEATHER & GASKET 3/16" - 1-1/4" |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Must have tool Comments: This is actually a well made hollow punch tool set and Comes with large sizes not available in almost all tool sets. A warning though in that the largest punches will not penetrate tough materials like fiber reinforced rubber. |
Rating: 4 (out of 5) Summary: Crystal is exactly correct Comments: This would be a great set if that center spring-loaded pin punch did not wobble. After removing the hex bolt at the other end of the handle, the plastic grip can be slide aside, revealing a set screw which allows pin punch and spring removal. This pin has a bearing surface OD of about 9.0mm, which is an unacceptably loose fit in the 9.8mm bore. A larger OD pin, to eliminate wobble, requires cleaning up that bore. |
Rating: 4 (out of 5) Summary: gasket punch set Comments: I purchased this tool to make "washers" for dye bottles I was using. I found that the awl portion of the punch that allows you to center a second punch, as I needed to do, was aggravating as it wobbled a bit. Solution was to have hubby grind it off in the shop. Seems to punch better thru thicker material rather than thin stuff like the foam sheets I was using to make the washers. 2 sheets of foam punched better than 1 and I had half the work. happy I purchased this and plan to use it frequently as I have many dyer friends!! |
