This product met my need - punch a few holes in an electrical cabinet. Not sure how it would hold over time with hundreds of uses, but this was perfect for what I needed.

This set works good, just as good as the expensive ones. I use it a lot, not every day. I have used my impact gun on it, and it still holds up. I would recommend this set for anyone just needing it once in a while. ive probably made 30 holes so far and still good.

The quality of the punch is marginal. Also you can buy the exact same punch set at any Harbor Freight store for $23.95.

I found that the information provided on the website and on the packaging was in conflict with each other and the actual pieces in the kit. I supposed that's what I should expect for buying relatively inexpensive tools. As the old adage said, "you get what you pay for".To begin, I was confused as to the difference between a punch and a die, since both words seemed to be used interchangeably. But according to the tool kit "Owner's Manual" booklet, the die was the external part, and the punch was the internal part, as it fitted into the die.But according to the specifications I obtained from the re-seller's web-page, those punch and die sizes were ridiculous. For example, a (½") die was smaller than the mating punch size (7/8").Furthermore, the "Owner's Manual" booklet stated in the part description table that the kit contained a (½") punch for a (½") die, a (¾") punch for a (¾") die, a (1") punch for a (1") die and a (1-¼") punch for a (1-¼") die. Those sizes were all wrong because the punch had to be smaller by a small tolerance to fit into the die.I then measured the smallest punch and die pair, only to find out that there was nothing in the kit even closely related to (½"). The smallest punch had an OD of (7/8") (~22 mm), with the corresponding die being slightly larger; that pair could be used to create the pass-through holes for the extender fittings.However, that wasn't the last of it. The "Owner's Manual" booklet stated that the smaller drive bolt required a (½" dia.) hole. I therefore drilled the required hole-size to only find out that it was too large, as it would have too much play in centering the bolt in the hole. That discovery alone made it seem that this was not a tool for precision work. I then measured the thread outer diameter of the drive bolt, which was (~7/16") (~11 mm).

Not for everyday use but works as expected it's okay for the do-it-yourselfer but not a professional setAt this price you can't go wrong

Great Value for occasional use, as advertised. Nice case included, keep small oiled rag in case to control any future rust issues. You can probably spend four times more but these will work for less on mild steel and aluminum just fine. Bearing compression bolts (fine thread) supplied, small bolt will punch correct hole size to use larger bolt with the other three punches to go larger, reducing initial drill size.

Worked OK for what I needed. Just had to use the smallest punch. Would be nicer if there were more smaller sizes available as I don't think I would ever need any of the larger sized punches but I can see needing something in between the smallest and the next couple of sizes up.I had to punch holes in some sheet aluminum panels for XLR microphone connectors. This was much easier than trying to drill and enlarge by hand.

I'm not an electrical engineer - I'm a computer engineer. I am a PC moding hobbyist. I purchased these punches because I wanted to make various size holes in PC cases in order to accomodate reseviors and flexible tubing. Some cases have immovable parts (Drive cages for example) that I would rather go through than around. Shopping for knockout punches I found them to be expensive - a set from a different vendor was over 150 dollars - so these seemed reasonable at about 50.00. Again, I'm NOT an electrical engineer. I'm just trying to punch round uniform holes in thin metal associated with a PC case. These punches worked very well for that purpose and came in exactly the sort of sizes I needed. I'm giving 5 stars but I'm not using them in a typical way I suppose.There are a couple things to note for the novice (and I'm definitely a novice with these tools). First the pilot hole you drill must be 1/2 an inch - that's a fairly big drill bit so be prepared. Second, you need a 1 inch wrench (pipe or rachet) - and that is a fairly big wrench. If you have typical household tools and are not a car guy or DIY handyman you may not have these lying about - so be prepared to ask to borrow one from that guy you work with who has that truck seemingly full of spare tools.
