Kuźnia Sułkowice Punktak ślusarski RDTa 135mm 1-451-07-101 – center punch, hardened tip

Kuźnia Sułkowice Punktak ślusarski RDTa 135mm is a hand center punch designed for creating precise starting marks on metal, plastic and other materials prior to drilling. The tool has a total length of 135 mm and a hardened tip produced to withstand repeated manual strikes. Its straightforward design allows controlled transfer of impact energy to form clean, repeatable indentations for accurate hole placement in metalworking, maintenance and general fabrication tasks.

Advantages

The hardened tip provides long wear resistance and consistent marking performance under repeated use. A compact 135 mm length offers good control and reach in confined spaces while remaining convenient for bench and field tasks. The robust shaft and tip construction minimize deformation and maintain point geometry, ensuring reliable center marks over the life of the tool.

Suitable for

• Marking drill centres on sheet metal and plate
• Creating starter indentations on plastics and softer materials
• Workshop maintenance and fabrication tasks
• DIY projects requiring precise hole alignment

Key specifications

• Total length: 135 mm
• Tip: hardened steel point for impact marking
• Tool type: manual center punch for striking with hammer
• Material suitability: metal, plastics and similar materials

How to use

Position the tip at the intended center point and hold the punch perpendicular to the work surface to ensure an accurate mark. Deliver a controlled strike with a hammer to create an indentation deep enough to guide the drill bit. For harder materials, apply several strikes as needed rather than a single overly strong blow to preserve point geometry. Inspect the tip regularly for wear and re-sharpen or replace if the point becomes rounded.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate eye protection when striking the punch and secure the workpiece to prevent movement. Store the center punch in a dry place to avoid corrosion and check the hardness and condition of the tip before precision work.
