One with a 3/16" hole punch and one with a 5/16" hole punch. I have both so can give you the answer for both. The unit with the 3/16" hole punch makes a hole 1/8" from the edge. The unit with the 5/16" hole punch makes a hole 1/16" from the edge. I hope that this helps. I am very satisfied with my tools. **Q: Any way to modify the throat depth on the punch side? It's too shallow for my liking.** A: Nope, you have what you get. They are set up for a specific meatal thickness and if you try to use heaver material it will bend the shaft and ruin the tool. I tried it and had to buy a new one. **Q: Can the punch be flipped to be positioned at the end of the tool?** A: Not sure if you meen at a 90 degree angle, but no. One side crimps and the other punches holes **Q: How many gallon compressor is recommended?** A: It will run off just about any compressor. If you are going to be doing a lot of crimping on long panels, you might want something with a larger tank, but it will run off a pancake compressor. I have a 30 gallon tank on my home shop compressor, and, on the small patch panels I've used it on, it never got to the point where the compressor kicked in. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sheet metal cutter *by A***R on January 2, 2026* Works great and the price is good and fast delivery ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ works great *by W***L on December 9, 2025* punches 18ga like it isn't there. so far I'm beyond pleased with it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great tool *by J***Y on December 6, 2025* Must have for auto body work! ## Frequently Bought Together - Astro 605ST ONYX Straight Type Punch/Flange Tool - 14-Pack Spot Weld Cutter Sets Double Sided, 3/8" HSS Spot Weld Cutter Remover Drill Bits Hex Sheet Metal Hole Cutter Remover for Power Drill Spot Welding - Seymour 20-1675 PBE Professional Primer, Self Etching/Weld Through Gray --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/10542253-astro-605st-straight-type-punch-flange-tool](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/10542253-astro-605st-straight-type-punch-flange-tool) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
