2Pcs Heavy Duty Automatic Center Punch, 5 Premium Steel Spring Loaded Center Hole Punch, Adjustable Spring Impact Center Marker Scriber Tool for Metel, Plastics, Wood, Glass by karmiero

Cant say enough good things about this set of spring loaded punches. They work perfectly and like they are supposed to. The knurling provides a nice grip. Both sides can be unscrewed for cleaning and lubrication. You really cannot go wrong with this set. They are an excellent value. I have a Starrett at work that cost ten times as much as these two. They make the same indent on steel as the Starrett does. They even feel the same when used. I would highly recommend these center punches. Extremely useful tool to have on hand.

Wasnt sure if I could use this with not much hand strength; but this was easier than I thought. I kept losing the little pre-drill screws. This was a great find. And TWO for the price was even better.

I had a typical center punch, basically a sharp screwdriver type implement and as some tools do, it walked a while ago and I have been having to make do. One thing I do frequently is put holes in frames for screws for the hangers. This might be overkill, but I’ve been using the side of scissors and small screwdrivers. This does the job and is more accurate. Two for $4.99 is a great price

The center hole punch is pretty good. Its easy to use and it comes in handy when youre drilling through a hard or a slippery surface. The tension is easy to adjust and it has a pretty good range. The smallest holes in my pic are at the lowest setting punching through pine. Good thing you get a set of 2 because the center hold punch is tiny and easy to lose in a busy shop.

Ive never used spring loaded punches before, always simple pointed awls. These are great. They easily mark wood. I couldnt get them to mark mild steel, but I dont think that is what they are designed for. Im sure theyd do softer metal like aluminum as well as wood. For the price you get 2!

IF yours doesnt punch holes, you have to open up the front part and change the direction of the spring. The spring that is closest to the hole punch part. For some reason the spring I received way put it backwards so it was catching on the mechanism inside and not pressing into the whole fully.

The tool is inconsistent. I rarely works as intended.

Item description: Automatic Center Punch x2 Brand: Karmiero Item: B0BR8B8XKJ Date received: 2023-03-09 Headline - Nice value; good to have one in each toolbox, and useful in the car as well. Product Claims 2 ct Automatic Center Punch I received exactly what was claimed in the product description as to quantity (2 ct) and type (automatic center punch). The items came in a white pasteboard box, each within its own heat-sealed plastic bag. There were no instructions for these (none really are needed). Each item is purely mechanical, operated by spring/ratchet action. You merely push down with the pointy tip at the place you want a starting punch, and the spring loaded internal hammer loads up and knocks the point into the material. If you need a deeper mark, or the material is hard, you can repeat this action several times to create a larger mark. These also have utility to keep in your car, as a window breaker, in case you end up in high water due to going off the road or mistakenly driving into deep water during a flood or hurricane. These are relatively inexpensively made, based on a now-standard long-ago design (my grandfather, a machinist in his early years known for making many of his own tools, made his own automatic center punch to essentially this design, circa the 1920s), but they are solid steel and should last awhile if you are using them in soft or moderately hard materials. You can touch up the point with a grinder or sharpening stone as needed. The point of these is probably not hard enough to put a mark into a hardened steel.
