Proto, J965/8S2, Drift Punch, 5/16 in; S2 Steel, Black Oxide Finish, 10.1 in

Crafted with precision from S2 steel and treated for enhanced durability, this drift punch is engineered to align holes in multiple metal pieces, facilitating the insertion of bolts or screws. Its one-piece design not only ensures strength but also features a reverse taper, which helps to prevent binding during use. The modified parabolic striking end minimizes the risk of mushrooming and chipping, while the black oxide finish provides critical protection against rust and corrosion, ultimately extending the tool's lifespan. Additionally, a polished identification panel clearly displays the tool number and size, making it easy to locate and select the right tool for the job.
