Overview
Punching clean round holes in leather straps, rubber and plastic is what this General Tools plier-style punch is for. It works by hand, with six hole sizes selected from one tool, and the grip is covered in rubber.
Six hole sizes in a single hand tool save carrying separate punches for craft and repair jobs. The listing is short on the diameter of each size and gives only one pin hole figure, so check sizes against your project.
Who it's for
Belts, straps, gaskets and craft projects with soft material fit a manual punch of this type. Heavy fabrication and sheet metal call for a different tool.
Pros and cons
- Six hole sizes in one tool
- Manual, no power needed
- Stainless steel finish
- Compact for a craft kit
- Only one diameter figure listed
- Sheet count entry unclear
- Material field says plastic
- Not for metal
Performance notes
A manual punch cuts by squeezing a hardened tip through the material against a backing surface, so clean holes depend on a firm backing and a square squeeze. The sizes are chosen by rotating the tool. The listing gives only one diameter, so smaller and larger holes should be checked.
