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

The tool is inconsistent. I rarely works as intended.

It malfunctioned on 3rd use, not sure how long it will last.

Doesnt work like it suppose to . Cheap made and no good to me !

Neither item work directly out of the box!

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.

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.

If you have to drill holes in ...... you can simply start drilling and hope the drill bit actually goes in straight. On metal or on rounded surface you know the drill bit will dance around before catching and scraping up the surface as it goes. These center punches are spring loaded so you simply place it where you want to drill press and it leaves an indent keeping your drill bit centered and straight. A must have for anyone working on metal or plastics. Good quality tool which when you learn how to use you wont ever not want to be without.

After 1-2 week of use.

I used them to mark holes for screws on metal and they did not disappoint. Heavy duty and Precise.
