2-in-One Drip Irrigation Tubing Hole Punch & Fitting Insertion Tool - for Easier 1/4 Inch Fitting & Emitter Insertion

Easy to use, works perfectly

Very sharp and will easily put a hole in the tubing with little effort. If you are not careful it can poke a hole through the other side. Connectors pop in easily and their are no leaks where tubbing was connected.

Not much use untill you drill a 7/32 hole in one of the slots . Then you can use it to hold 1/4 barb fittings while installing them on tubing.

In a hutshell, i found it worthless.

It works god and is easy to use. Fast shipping and here when I needed it

As a whole punch, its awesome: sharp point and good size and shape to maintain a grip while pushing the tool into 1/2 inch or larger supply pipe. But its useless for inserting emitters-- you can lay the quarter-inch tubing into the channel but it will just slip down when you try to push an emitter into it. To be fair, I dont see a tool design that would work for this purpose. The only strategy that has worked for me is dipping the end of the tubing into hot water; the emitter slips on effortlessly. I gave it four stars because its a well-made tool at a reasonable price; it fails only at what is likely an impossible task for any tool.

ok

This only works for those hard thicker plastic type lines. Dont do what I did and get it thinking you could use it on the kits you see here on Amazon with all the goodies included. I love the kit I got, dont get me wrong, but I didnt realize the main line isnt that hard plastic type. Its a softer one, and you can not get this punch through it. It will stretch and stretch and stretch. Yep, I tried it to that degree. Not a single hole. It didnt hold the 1/4 line like its suppose to, either. So you can install the ends and such? Nope. I might be an idiot though, so .....
