NEIKO 02638A 5-Inch Automatic Center Punch for Metal, Adjustable Impact Spring Loaded Center Punch Tool, Spring Punch, Center Punch Spring Loaded, Auto Center Punch

I was struggling to drill holes in exact place when needed to install by closets. This hole puncher does the trick every time by making a little dent so that drillbit can easily make the hole and not slide away.

Just as advertised, taps in steel, aluminum & other metals. Didnt try it for hardened steel but its hardly intended for that kind of jobs. The striker part on mine seems to be hardened, no issues so far.

Great as a center punch. I wanted to use this as an Automatic Nail set,but its spring tension is not enough to set nails.

Great item!

It’s so easy to use

Works as expected.

I like the large end - its much more comfortable for making multiple indents than the pen style. Its powerful - came adjusted to maximum force - yet adjustable. So far, so good!

I was under the impression this would pop when pushed against something. Mine doesnt. It pushes against a spring only. Kinda useless this way

Bem preciso e forte na marcação, porém qto a durabilidade, não tenho como opinar pq estou com ele a pouco tempo, parece que vai durar bem, aparenta ser bem construído.

Purchased the first one as a gift for my brother and I liked it so much I bought a second one for my self. This punch is most useful on wood and sheet metal where a small, carefully placed indent is called for. It is not the tool I reach for when I am marking heavy cross section structural steel, even as the first mark. It fits well in the hand and will hang on a magnetic tool strip. The red ball end makes it easy to locate when on the table in a pile of tools
