FAQs

What materials can I use these nail punches on?

These nail punches are best suited for use on soft to medium-density materials such as wood and some plastics. Avoid using them on hardened materials or metals.

How do I choose the right size punch?

Select a punch size that closely matches the head size of the nail or brad you're using. The goal is to set the nail head below the surface without damaging the surrounding material.

How do I clean the nail punches?

Wipe the punches clean after each use to remove debris. You can use a cloth or brush to remove any buildup.

What is the length of each punch?

Each punch is 125mm long.

What if the punch gets stuck?

If a punch gets stuck, gently tap it from the other end with a hammer to loosen it. If it's severely stuck, try using a penetrating oil.

How should I store these nail punches?

Store the punches in a dry place to prevent rust. Consider using a tool bag or organizer to keep them protected and easy to find.

Troubleshooting

Reduce the force of the hammer blows or switch to a larger punch size.

The nail isn't setting deep enough.
