Whether you need a hole puncher for heavy-duty metal, an awl tool for leather, or a hole marker for wood, plastic, or glass, this center hole punch can set a marker on any hard material. To use this device, activate it with a firm downward push on the cap, and the spring- loaded mechanism and steel awl tip will apply enough pressure to mark your surface. With a comfortable ball end, this tool allows you to get a firm grip as you mark your working materials.

  • Accurate, Easy to Use, and Much Better Than Traditional Center Punches
Style: Auto Center Punch Size: 5" Length (Pack of 1)
I picked this up for a project where I needed to drill very precise holes in 16-gauge steel, and it worked much better than the spring-loaded punch I had been using previously. With my old style, you had to pull back and release the mechanism, which often caused the tip to shift slightly before striking. This automatic center punch lets you position the tip exactly where you want it and simply press down until it fires, making it much easier to create an accurate starting point for the drill bit. The punch itself feels solid and comfortable in the hand. It has enough weight to inspire confidence, and the build quality seems like it should hold up well for years with normal use. I also appreciate that there aren't many moving parts exposed, so it seems like a straightforward, durable tool. My only real criticism is the adjustable striking force. The instructions indicate that you can increase or decrease the impact strength, but I honestly couldn't notice much of a difference regardless of the setting. It still worked perfectly for my application, so this wasn't a dealbreaker. Overall, if you're looking for a reliable automatic center punch that makes accurate drilling easier, l'd definitely recommend this one. It did exactly what I needed and is a noticeable improvement over the pull-and-release style punches l've used in the past. ... show more

  • Oh, if only i had known about this sooner
Style: Auto Center Punch Size: 5" Length (Pack of 1)
Work like a charm. I had no idea how ghetto and Jenkee my last Center punch was. It was really just a pain and it was constantly not working and I constantly had to twist it in just a way to where it would actually work and make some sort of an indentation in my material. I had no idea how much I was missing out until I got this. Like it was an eye-opening unbelievable amount. This is a good quality tool, but I mean you probably already knew that because you're looking at it. I can't say something like you should always have a high-quality Center punch in your life because nine times out of 10 a cheap one will be just fine but as I just pointed out, I have been using a real terrible one for a long time and had no idea how much it was interfering with the happiness in my life. This was the one I needed to be a better person! And besides, it's still pretty cheap so there's a lot of value here. ... show more

  • Does what it’s supposed to do.
Style: Auto Center Punch Size: 6" Length
Cool and durable product! I’ve been using this product and still , the tip is still the same when I first bought it, sharp and pointy. Used this on wood, metal, pvc and aluminum. When using on metal, I usually do it once or sometimes two or three times. Size of the Handle feels just right and gives me a good grip and stability. Overall, very satisfied with this product! ... show more

  • NOT CCP/PRC JUNK. Made in Taiwan!
Style: Auto Center Punch Size: 6" Length
I've owned lots of these automatic center punches, but none comes close to this NEIKO made punch. Made in Taiwan, "the Germany of Asia" Quality and function that you thought was impossible to buy. I just ordered the 5" version for my aluminum aircraft work.

  • The Perfect Tool for Installing Quick-Latches!
Style: Auto Center Punch Size: 6" Length
"I bought this NEIKO automatic center punch specifically to help install a set of quick-latches on my 2010 Honda Fit, and it was an absolute lifesaver. When drilling into the body and bumper, precision is everything, and you definitely don't want your drill bit walking and scratching the paint. The one-handed spring operation allowed me to hold the latch bracket perfectly in place with one hand while marking the exact drill center with the other. The adjustable impact tension is a great feature, letting me dial it down for the plastic bumper and up for the metal core support. The S2 steel tip stayed incredibly sharp throughout the whole project. Highly recommended for automotive DIYers!" Option 2: Short, Direct, and Ac ... show more
