For rivet holes and findings, a punched hole beats a drilled one: no burr to file, no bit to snap. Squeeze these pliers and the hardened 1.5mm tool steel pin drives through silver or copper sheet, leather or plastics into the die in the lower jaw, leaving a clean 1.5mm hole with a tidy exit — the same result on the fiftieth hole as the first.

A knurled screw stop sets punch depth consistently and protects the pin from over-travel, while the return spring reopens the jaws for you on repetitive runs. The red rubber-coated handles keep the grip secure through a batch. Favoured equally by bench jewellers, leatherworkers and model makers.

  • Hardened 1.5mm tool steel punch pin produces clean, burr-free holes.
  • Adjustable, knurled screw stop allows for consistent punch depth and prevents damage to the tool.
  • Return spring between the handles automatically opens the jaws, reducing hand fatigue.
  • Red, rubber-coated handles provide a comfortable, non-slip grip for extended use.
  • Lower jaw features a corresponding die to support the material and ensure a clean exit.

Who it's for

A practical tool for UK bench jewellers creating holes for rivets and findings in silver or copper sheet. Also favoured by leatherworkers for punching strap holes and by model makers working with soft metals and plastics.

Common questions at the bench

What can they punch?
If this product's description gives a material or thickness, stay within it. Punching harder or thicker material than the tool is made for can bend or blunt the punch.
How do I place a hole or notch accurately?
Mark the position with a fine marker or scribe, line the punch up with the mark and check from the side before you squeeze. Then squeeze in one firm, steady movement.
Will the hole need finishing?
Check the edge after punching. If a burr or rough edge is left, especially in metal, smooth it with a needle file or fine abrasive paper before it touches skin or shows on the finished piece.
How should I look after them?
Clear any punched-out pieces from the jaws after use, wipe the tool clean and store it dry. Do not use it for gripping or as a lever.
