Centre punch
A centre punch makes a small dimple in metal or wood, so a drill bit starts in the right spot and does not wander. Metalworkers, fitters and installers use it to mark out holes before drilling.
There are three main types. An automatic centre punch needs no hammer: you press it onto the workpiece and an internal spring strikes the dimple, handy when you work with one hand or set many points in a row. A precision centre punch, with a point diameter from 2.5 mm to 10 mm, is used with a hammer for an accurate mark. A coated centre punch has a grip that protects your hand from a missed blow. Eight-sided centre punches do not roll off the workbench. Choose the point diameter by the job: a fine point for accurate marking, a thicker one for heavier work. Lengths run from about 100 to 150 mm.
The centre punches come from Bahco, Facom, Rennsteig, Gedore, Bosch, Stanley and more. To drive a pin out of a hole you need a drift punch rather than a centre punch: both are grouped under punches and center marks.
