Starrett S264WB Set Of 7 Centre Punches, 1/16"-1/4" Tapered Point Diameters, In Round Plastic Case

The Starrett S264WB set includes seven centre punches with a square shank and 1/16", 5/64", 3/32", 1/8", 5/32", 3/16" and 1/4" diameter tapered points. The set comes with a round red plastic case for storage. Each punch has a tempered steel shank for strength and a hardened steel point for wear resistance. The shanks are knurled for grip and have a square shape to prevent them from rolling when placed on a work surface. Centre punches make small dimple marks in a workpiece to help guide a drill bit. Manual centre punches have a metal shank with a point and are typically tapped with a ball-peen hammer to mark the material. Automatic centre punches have an internal spring mechanism that enables them to mark the material without using a hammer, leaving one hand free for steadying the work. The L.S. Starrett Company manufactures precision measuring tools, metrology and testing equipment and saw blade products. The company, founded in 1880, is headquartered in Athol, MA. What's in the Box?
