Starrett Center Punches with round shanks. Set of 5, Nos. 117AA, A, B, C, D in Plastic Case

Starrett catalog number S117PC.

This center punch set includes the following sizes, measured at the top of the tapered point: 1/16”, 5/64”, 3/32”, 1/8”, and 5/32” diameter.

Starrett No. 117 Center Punches are made of specially selected steel, hardened and properly tempered. They are well proportioned, nicely finished and have a knurled finger grip. The points are ground at the proper angle to give maximum service, and the tips are accurately centered.

These punches are universally used, but most often by machinists. They are well-proportioned for ease of use. The specially selected tool steel is hardened and tempered to the proper hardness. All of them feature nicely knurled finger grips for ease of handling. A special tempering process makes the head less likely to fracture from a hard, off-center blow.

ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WHEN USING STRIKING AND STRUCK TOOLS.

David ★★★★★

The points are ground precisely and the indexing marks on the shanks make swapping sizes easy. Even the small 117AA feels solid for tight layout work.

Robert E. ★★★★★

The whole set fits securely in the plastic case, and the knurled grip on the larger punches makes them easy to hold steady. I've already used the B and C sizes on some aluminum stock, and the pointed tips left perfect, clean marks.

Jacob ★★★★★

The points on the 117AA and A punches are ground precisely, with no wobble when I tap them with a hammer. The case keeps everything organized, and the D size handles larger marks perfectly.
