Description
The Maun 10 Piece Wad Punch Kit Imperial is a comprehensive hollow punch set designed for cutting precise holes and shapes in soft materials. This versatile kit enables professional craftsmen and serious DIY enthusiasts to create accurately shaped gaskets, washers and circular cutouts in felt, rubber, leather, plastic and cork. Built to withstand demanding workshop use, this British-made tool features chemically blackened punches and handle for corrosion resistance and extended service life. The centre punch case has been hardened to HRC 57 for exceptional durability, whilst the punches are ground to a fine cutting edge then hardened and tempered to HRC 45. The fully heat-treated handle withstands repeated hammer or mallet blows whilst remaining comfortable during prolonged use. All nine imperial-sized punches fit onto a single interchangeable handle, screwing on and off for quick size changes. A spring-loaded plunger accurately positions the centre of each hole and automatically ejects the slug, streamlining repetitive tasks. This hollow punch set proves particularly valuable for vintage vehicle restoration when fabricating water pump gaskets and washers, floor covering work requiring precise cork or vinyl repairs, and leather crafting applications demanding clean circular cuts. The complete kit arrives in a lightweight polypropylene storage box for organised tool storage. Made in England and backed by a 12-month warranty, extendable to 2 years upon registration.
