Q Max Sheet Metal Hole Punch Metric

The Q Max 12.7mm Sheet Metal Hole Punch is perfectly sized for creating half-inch equivalent holes in sheet metal up to 16 gauge. This metric size offers excellent compatibility with both metric and imperial systems, making it ideal for retrofit work, general fabrication, and applications requiring 12.7mm apertures. Built with heat-treated cutting edges and a black anti-corrosive surface finish, this punch produces clean, burr-free holes every time. The special load distribution design reduces operator effort whilst ensuring consistent cutting performance across repeated applications. This punch uses the standard configuration with threading on the hexagonal screw. Operation requires a 6mm hexagonal key to turn the screw mechanism, which pulls the punch cleanly through the metal once the die and die nut are correctly positioned. Features and Benefits: • 12.7mm diameter ideal for half-inch equivalent applications • Requires 6mm hexagonal wrench for operation (sold separately) • Heat-treated edges for durability and consistent cutting • Produces burr-free holes requiring no finishing • Anti-corrosive finish for long-term tool protection Specifications: Punch Type: Metric Diameter (mm): 12.7 Key Type: 6mm Hex Key Pilot Drill (mm): 9
