Hollow Punch Set - Amtech - Hollow Punch Set

The Amtech Hollow Punch Set is designed for use on leather, rubber, fabric, plastic, and vinyl.

While the punches are made with durable, heat-treated materials, they can dull over time. Regular cleaning and care can help. If they become extremely dull, consider replacing the set.

No, these punches are not designed for use on metal. They are suitable for softer materials only.

Store the punch set in a dry place to prevent rust. You can use a toolbox or a dedicated storage container.

Use a cutting mat, wooden block, or steel plate to protect your work surface and to get clean cuts.

Carefully remove the punch from the material, using pliers if necessary. Ensure that the material is properly supported during punching to prevent this from happening.

Ensure the punch is perpendicular to the material. Use a rubber mallet or hammer to apply force. If the material is too thick or hard, consider using a different tool.

Make sure the punch is sharp and in good condition. Use a cutting mat or solid base. For leather, consider wetting the material slightly before punching.

Clean and dry the punches after each use. Store them in a dry environment. Consider applying a light coat of oil to prevent rust.
