Overview
Marking hole centers onto a mating part is what this Fowler Xtra-Punch set does, using sleeves and punches in small size steps. Each piece carries a laser etched size so the right sleeve and punch can be matched quickly.
Small size steps across the range let a machinist match nearly any hole in that span, and the etched sizes make the pieces easy to sort. The limit is range: the set covers only a half inch to one inch, and the listing does not say the case or its contents beyond the pieces.
Who it's for
Machine shops, toolmakers and fabricators who line up bolt patterns between parts will use the closely spaced sizes. Someone working with small or large holes outside the range, or who needs a storage case confirmed, should look at other sets.
Pros and cons
- Close size steps across the range
- Laser etched sizes on each piece
- Hardened punch tips for repeated use
- Heavy duty build for larger holes
- Case not mentioned in listing
- Material not listed
- Limited to the stated size range
Performance notes
A transfer punch fits a hole snugly through a sleeve, then a tap leaves a center mark on the part below. Close sizes mean less wobble in the sleeve, which gives a more accurate center. Hardness on the tips decides how long the point lasts under repeated strikes.
