Punching Tool Hazet 747-1 Self-Strike — hand punch for metal and leather

Hazet 747-1 Self-Strike is a handheld punching tool designed to create precise holes in thin metal sheets and leather. The integrated self-strike mechanism enables single-handed operation, eliminating the need for a separate hammer and allowing controlled, repeatable perforations. The compact design and robust construction make this tool suitable for workshop, automotive and leatherworking environments where accurate, clean holes are required.

Advantages

The self-strike mechanism delivers consistent striking force with each action, improving repeatability and reducing operator fatigue compared with hammer-driven punches. A hardened punch tip and solid body construction ensure durability when used on thin metals and leather. The compact, hand-held form factor offers improved access to confined or awkward work areas and supports quick, single-handed operation for repetitive tasks.

Подходит для

• Работы с тонкими листовыми металлами
• Кожевенные работы и ремонт изделий из кожи
• Автомобильные ремонтные и монтажные операций
• Мастерские и сервисные участки, где требуются повторяемые перфорации

Key specifications

• Tool type: handheld self-strike punch for metal and leather
• Operation: single-handed self-strike mechanism (no separate hammer required)
• Materials: suitable for thin metal sheets and leather
• Construction: hardened punch tip and robust body for repeated use
• Design: compact ergonomic form for access to confined spaces

How to use

Place the punch tip precisely at the marked location on the workpiece and hold the tool perpendicular to the surface. Activate the self-strike mechanism by applying the recommended operating stroke; the internal striker will deliver the impact required to create a clean hole. For leather, ensure the material is properly supported to avoid distortion; for thin metal, align the punch over a suitably supported backing to prevent deformation. After punching, inspect the hole and, if necessary, remove any burrs with a suitable deburring tool.

Usage recommendations

Use the punch only on materials within its intended range (thin sheet metal and leather). Secure the workpiece on a solid support or anvil to achieve clean perforations and minimize deformation. Wear suitable personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses and gloves, and keep hands clear of the striking area. Periodically inspect the punch tip for wear and replace or recondition it when edges become rounded to maintain hole quality.
