Automatic Punches

A better solution for accurate drilling
  ( 3 Customer Reviews )

For drilling accuracy, a centering mark is generally made first with a hammer and punch. A much better alternative, however, is one of our Automatic Punches, because they need no hammer. Just place the point firmly on the mark; as you press down, the spring action fires, leaving a perfect mark. Tighten the cap to increase marking pressure.

Works Well

Not sure why the other reviewers are having so much trouble with these but they seem to work well for me.

Automatic punches
Reviewed By:  formshifter (Aurora, Colorado) 
I agree with Jules. Meant for light usage only.

Broke down quickly
Reviewed By:  Jules75 (Redlands, CA) 
The punches are handsome. After very little use, however, the collar of the Standard punch began to break down. The housing is aluminum and did not stand up to the push and punch action. Very nice to look at but I would not recommend them for regular use.

Response By: Garrett Wade Tech Department
The Automatic punches are made of solid brass casings, a hardened steel tip, two internal steel springs and rams, and an aluminum screw-on end cap (the black part). These Punches should not be struck with a mallet or any other object. They operate by the action of two strong springs which release as the Punch is pressed down by hand. The rounded black end cap should be pressed in palm. We’ve sold the Punches quite successfully for years and we use them constantly around the shop. We've never experienced them "breaking down".
