What is the total length of the Beta 31 Pin Punch 2mm?

The total length of this specific tool is 110mm.

Can I use this punch for driving larger pins?

No, this is a 2mm punch. Using it on larger pins may result in poor fitment and potential damage to the tool or the workpiece.

Is this tool suitable for heavy-duty prying?

No, pin punches are designed for axial striking forces only and will likely bend if used for prying.

Are there other sizes available in this range?

How should I clean the punch?

Wipe it down with a clean, dry rag after use. If it gets dirty or oily, use a mild degreaser and dry thoroughly.

Troubleshooting

Punch tip is slipping off the pin

Ensure the punch is held perfectly perpendicular to the pin and the work surface. Verify that the pin diameter is indeed 2mm.

Tool shows signs of surface rust

Clean the affected area with a fine-grade abrasive pad and apply a light coat of machine oil before storage.

Striking end of the punch has burrs

Use a bench grinder or a file to carefully remove mushroomed metal from the striking end to prevent flaking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No assembly is required for the Beta 31 Pin Punch. It is ready for use immediately upon unboxing. To maintain the tool's longevity, store it in a dry tool box or drawer to prevent surface oxidation.
