Q Max Sheet Metal Hole Punch Imperial

The Q Max 1/2" Sheet Metal Hole Punch is perfect for cutting half-inch holes in sheet metal up to 16 gauge, making it ideal for smaller electrical installations, cable entry points, ventilation applications, and general light-to-medium fabrication work. This popular mid-range size is versatile across numerous workshop applications. Featuring heat-treated cutting edges with a black anti-corrosive surface finish, this punch provides dependable performance whilst resisting rust in demanding workshop conditions. The special design distributes load evenly during cutting, producing burr-free holes that require no additional finishing. Operation is straightforward: drill a pilot hole large enough to clear the hexagonal screw, thread the die and screw through the sheet metal, then tighten the die nut to cut cleanly and evenly through the material.
