Description
Overview:
The Stanley Centre Punch 3.2mm (1/8in), model STA058120 (0-58-120), is a hardened and tempered steel punch for accurate marking on metal prior to drilling. It creates a precise indentation to guide the drill bit and reduce wandering, improving hole placement and reducing scrap. The tool features a square head for controlled striking and a knurled shank for a secure grip, even with gloved or oily hands. A black coated finish adds surface protection for workshop and site use. Dimensions are 3.2 mm tip diameter (1/8in) and 100 mm overall length (4 in). Suitable for use with a hammer alongside hand drills, drill drivers, and pillar drills in fabrication, maintenance, and fitting work.
