Overview
A desk worker who files paper in ring binders gets a manual three-hole punch here, built of metal in pink, white and black. It runs by hand and needs no power.
A metal frame and a clear sheet capacity make it a practical office tool. The limitation is the missing hole diameter and spacing, so confirm they match your binder.
Who it's for
Everyday filing of modest stacks at a desk is the use. Those punching thick bundles, or needing a documented hole size and spacing, should look at an industrial punch or a listing with those details.
Pros and cons
- Manual, no power needed
- Stated sheet capacity
- Three year warranty
- Three holes in one pass
- Hole diameter not listed
- Hole spacing unspecified
- Limited to modest stacks
Performance notes
The lever drives three punches through the paper in one stroke, so sheet capacity is the practical limit. A metal body resists flexing under the squeeze. The hole diameter and the gap between holes decide which binders it suits.
