Neiko 02612A Hand Held Power Punch and Sheet Metal Hole Punch Kit, Cr-V 3/32" x 9/32"

I was very surprised by the quality of the tool and how easy they are to use. I use them to punch, tiny holes and jewelry and other things as well and it comes with an array of different size punches. I like the way they look and that’s pretty important for me since I have a lot of tools and I just like having a lot of great little things hanging around just like any other hobbyist there easy to use and easily punch through the metal just don’t go crazy trying to go through anything thicker than anything above 3 mm thick. For that kind of a job I would say you would need some kind of whole punch set with different size notches and mandrels and such.

This hand punch works exactly as expected. It’s sturdy, easy to use, and comes in a nice storage case. Great quality tool that made the job much easier.

This heavy duty hole punch is the real deal. I repeat, it is HEAVY DUTY! Goes through thick metal like butter. Not the most ergonomically designed handle, but once you get the hang of it, it really does the job well. Quality construction as well.

I'm not a tool person nor do I work in any kind of shop and I've got arms like noodles. Despite all that, even I can use this thing to punch tiny 3/32nd holes in sheets of steel. But it is a bit difficult for me to punch a hole in steel, I'm not very physically strong. It still does MOST of the work for you though. It's PERFECT if you're like me and you're a nerd who's making a homemade set of steel armor for ren-faire and you need something to punch holes to make rivets. My 1/8th rivets slip inside the 1/8th holes this thing made with no problems. No electricity, no powertools. Steel gauntlets holed and riveted with ease, blam! One problem, though. Be careful to make a dark and clearly visible mark for where you're punching your hole, it becomes a bit difficult to see small marks when you actually have your material in the mouth of this beast. If you make a good mark and you're careful, then it makes perfectly accurate punches. As with anything; don't rush it or your project will be junk.

I've been using this tool for about four months. It is a solid piece of work. You are not going to knock any holes in anything more than 20 gauge sheet metal with any kind of comfort, quickness or ease. I use this tool to punch holes in 28 gauge sheet metal dog tags for the local sports team I support. It works well for that. PROs- Love the available size hole punch sets, love the quick change between sizes. I use two sizes every time and the change is quick and easy. The female die, male die, and handle attachments are hand (finger) adjustable. Really like this tool for what I bought it for- punching holes in thin gauge sheet metal. Does a great job in a variety of sizes. price is great. Tools works well. Die change is very easy. The case is functional and supports changing dies and sizes. Highly recommend. Index points on dies help ensure holes go where you want them. You can adjust the female die to create knock-outs, hanging chads, and clean holes. The mechanical advantage of the tool makes punching holes in thin gauge metal easy. Punching holes with one hand is easy. that's good because keeping things on target and aligned is tricky; not difficult, just tricky and requires practice. It still takes two hands to open the tool and clear punched metal. The main point here is the tool's design facilitates freeing your project as well as it does punching the hole. CONs- very worthless, not sure why it's included, afterthought of a screw driver. Really?????? I mean, why bother if the worthless piece of tinfoil is all you can do? You don't need this thing. It really doesn't detract from the function of the tool. However, it is listed as a selling component and isn't worth shipping costs to include. I think they had to go out of their way to find a metal as soft and pliable as the type they are using. Don't breath too hard or you'll bend it. I think holding it in your hand too long softens it up. Very minor point but, disappointing none the less.

I am very happy with this product. I was just hoping to get a couple holes punched, but it worked great. I punched holes in the Harbor Freight One Drawer unit to do some customization, and it worked great. For the price, you can't beat it. (if you do not have hand strength, do not get this) It was not too difficult, but if you are not very strong, it may not work that great for you.

I use this tool often to punch small holes into aluminum for my hand stamped jewelry. Very durable and good quality. I have smaller and slightly arthritic hands and this tool is easy and painless for me to press down on and use. I found most of the tools I tried that were actually made for aluminum jewelry were too weak and hard to use. These are great. The only thing I’d change is that they came with an even smaller hole option as I use the smallest one already. Great tool! I look forward to using all the other options for much larger projects.

this item punches through 20 gage sheet metal without a problem, and it is substantial

This did everything as indicated. Way faster and cleaner that drilling. I've punched over 800 - 1/4" dia. holes in 26ga metal with it in the first two days that I've had it. Its still performing flawlessly. Great buy. I only wish I bought this years ago. It's one flaw is the depth gauge, it's easy for your sheet metal to slip past it. Very minor.

It works, and will punch through quite strong materials. But, you need to have massive hands, or use two hands, and if you use two hands, then there is the danger of hurting your hands because of the very small gap between the handles. Incredibly fast delivery. Thank you.

Also, wer an diesem Gerät was zu meckern hat, der benutzt es falsch. Es gibt nichts anderes was da nur annähernd hinkommt. Wechsel der Stanzen ist leicht... auch hier erst mal probieren und dann meckern... Zuletzt: Nein, es fehlen keine Teile. Die Stanze hat zu Beginn Einsätze verbaut und daher stecken die dann nicht in der Halterung

J’ai vendu mon ancien avant de déménager en France. Cela a été fait par la même enterprise, mais c’est encore mieux. Il est toujours fabriqué à Taiwan en non en Chine. Il perce un trou propre.

It's nice but I wish it had even smaller diameters
