SuooTci Automatic Center Punch 5 Inch Spring Loaded 2 Pack Center Punch For Metal with Adjustable Tension Punch Tool for Metal(Two Replacement Tips Included)

I have had and have other spring-loaded punches . These are nice and good quality with a smooth action . I like them and recommend them .

These are slim enough to easily center on your mark and push down on the tool to snap your punch mark. No more having the punch skate away when you hit it with a hammer. If you want a bigger mark just put your regular punch in the mark and hit with a hammer. Do not hit these punches with a hammer. At this price there is no reason to not have these in your tool box. It would have saved me a lot of time over the years to have these.

Well made and makes a good impression on the metal to grab a drill bit. Works well.

Nicely made and it punches well. Comes with 2 extra punch replacements. Me Gusta.

I was impressed when I opened the package of the SuooTci Automatic Center Punch. The punches are all metal and have a good feel t them. They are easy to operate and the knurled barrel makes it easy to use with one hand. I made some test marks on wood and they handled that with no issue. The marks are clean and accurate. I also tried making some marks on ceramic and porcelain tile. While the marks were not as pronounced as on the wood (I wouldnt expect them to be), they were clearly visible and made a good spot for a drill bit to start. I have used the spring style center punches in the past. They worked well but cannot compare to the quality and performance of these punches. I appreciate that this was a pack of two punches and the two extra tips will ensure these will last for awhile. This punch set is very reasonably priced and the quality makes this well worth it.

Both of the units that I got had a good action and a crisp snap when used. The points are sharp, and while not the best finish overall, they are sharp, concentric and smooth where it matters. I used them on mild steel and alumimum and they created nice center punches with a clean center and no visible wear on the point. They also supplied a pair of extra points.

I keep one of these on my workbench and one in my tool belt. I use it many for wood not metal but I can certainly see how helpful it would be for metal. Nothing like starting a hole with a bit on metal and seeing the bit scoot all over your work piece. With wood it makes a nice little divot to start a screw in or drill a hole.

Product is made of great material. Product works great!!

As an avid DIYer, I’m always on the lookout for tools that will help me get things done more efficiently. I have center punch tools, but they are not spring loaded and require a blow from a hammer to make the marks need to start a hole. That’s not so convenient when trying to mark something at a weird angle. These automatic center punches can be used with one hand and makes a nice visible mark on most soft surfaces, like wood or sheetrock. I have also tried them on harder surfaces like bricks and mortar, but it does take more than one try. One of the punches did not work properly in that the automatic spring action didn’t activate after using it once. I ended up disassembling the unit and putting it back together, and did not have the same issue again. I think something must have been misaligned at the factory. The punches also comes with 2 replacement tips, but the tips seem hard enough to be used hundreds of times without wear. Overall, this is a great tool to have in anyone’s toolbox. It makes drilling holes so much easier, you won’t want to be without it. And at the asking price, it is a very good buy.

Nice cheap set of center punches. Makes a great addition to the tool bag.
