FAQs

What materials can I use this punch set on?

This punch set is suitable for leather, gaskets, plastic, rubber, vinyl, paper/card, and other soft materials.

How do I choose the right size punch?

Measure the required hole diameter and select the corresponding punch size from the set.

What tools do I need to use the punch set?

You will need a mallet or hammer, a cutting mat, and the punch set.

How do I maintain the punches?

Clean the punches after each use. Store them in a dry place and occasionally apply a light oil.

What should I use as a backing surface?

A cutting mat or a piece of wood works well.

How do I prevent the punch from getting stuck in the material?

Use a sharp punch, a clean cut, and apply consistent force. A light lubricant may help.

Can I sharpen these punches?

While the punches are made of heat-treated steel, sharpening can be challenging. It's often easier to replace a dull punch.

Troubleshooting

Punch is getting stuck in the material.

Make sure the punch is sharp and clean. If needed, use a lubricant like a light oil or apply more force.

Holes are not clean or have rough edges.

Use a sharp punch and ensure the material is on a flat, stable surface. A dull punch or uneven force can cause this.

The punch is bending or breaking.

Ensure you are using the punch on the correct type of material. Avoid using the punches on hard materials. Reduce the force applied, if the material is too thick.
