Proto, J155/8S2, Aligning Punch, 5/8 in; 3/16 in, S2 Steel, Black Oxide Finish, 16.1 in

The Proto Aligning Punch is an essential tool engineered for precision in metalworking applications. With a modified parabolic striking end designed to minimize mushrooming and chipping, it ensures cleaner strikes for effective hole alignment. The reverse taper configuration helps prevent binding, making it easier to use across multiple pieces of metal where bolts or screws are to be inserted. Crafted from durable S2 steel and featuring a black oxide finish, this aligning punch is not only resistant to rust corrosion but also extends the tool's lifespan and performance. Its one-piece design combines strength and durability, while a polished identification panel clearly marks the tool number and size for easy identification.
