The Single Starting Punches (Model 045256205007) are precision‑engineered tools designed to deliver reliable, repeatable starts for a wide range of metal‑working and machining applications. Whether you are a professional machinist, a small‑shop fabricator, or a hobbyist looking for dependable performance, these punches provide the strength and accuracy required to initiate clean holes in steel, aluminum, copper, and other conductive materials.
Key Features & Benefits
- High‑Strength Construction: Made from hardened tool steel with a Rockwell hardness of 60‑62 HRC, ensuring long‑lasting durability and resistance to wear.
- Precision Ground Tip: The tip is ground to a ±0.01 mm tolerance, guaranteeing accurate hole placement and minimal material deformation.
- Universal Compatibility: Fits standard 5‑hole punch presses, turret punches, and CNC punching machines.
- Easy Installation: Simple to mount and align with interchangeable shank sizes (M8, M10, and M12).
- Reduced Cycle Time: Optimized geometry reduces the force required to start holes, improving overall production efficiency.
- Corrosion‑Resistant Finish: Black oxide coating protects against rust and extends tool life in harsh shop environments.
