Mitco Centre Punch 5 x 120mm

Description

A centre punch from Mitco, the Brits-based tool maker, in the 5.0 x 120 mm size of their centre punch range. A tap with a hammer leaves a small cone-shaped dent that stops the drill bit from wandering when you start a hole.

Hold the punch upright on the marked spot and give one firm tap with a ball-pein or engineer’s hammer. Regrind the point at its original angle when it gets blunt, and wear safety glasses.

Used for:

• Marking hole centres on steel and aluminium
• Starting holes in brackets and flat bar
• Marking layout points for fabrication

Not for: driving out pins. Use a pin punch.

Single punch. Sold each.
