Starrett No. 248 Drive Pin Punches are extra-long, measuring 8" (200 mm). The bodies are 4-1/2" (115 mm) and the drive pin sections are 3-1/2" (90 mm) long. They are well-proportioned, hardened, properly tempered, and have a knurled grip. They are designed to withstand hard use and provide a most satisfactory punch for machine shop and motor service work. Just the punch to follow long cotter pins and the like into holes without hindrance. The diameters of the punches are slightly under the sizes listed.
ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WHEN USING STRIKING AND STRUCK TOOLS.

Claire P. ★★★★★

The extra length on these punches makes all the difference when you’ve got a tight spot near a frame—the 8” reach got me into places my old set couldn’t touch. They’re hardened and well-proportioned, took a beating without any mushrooming.

Avery ★★★★★

The hardened steel body feels solid in hand, and the 8-inch overall length gives me the reach I need for tight spots. Punched through a stubborn roll pin on my first try without any bending.

Grace ★★★★★

The extra length on these punches makes it so much easier to reach recessed roll pins without my hand cramping up. The hardened body seems to hold up well against heavy hammer strikes without mushrooming.
