Fowler 52-482-028-0 Steel Transfer Punch Set with Index Stand, 28 Piece

I like these transfer punches. This is a extremely simple product - a hardened steel punch the same size as the hole of something you are mounting - but it makes it easy to do an accurate and precise job. I resisted getting a full set buying one at a time for a long time - just because it seemed like it would not be used. I’ve used so many of them already in the first few weeks. No complaints.

Perfect product for labeling. Good price

I purchased this from the Price Pros reseller, it arrived the next day. I was concerned about the possibility of getting a non-genuine product based on an earlier review, but Amazon's return policy would allow a quick and easy resolution. What a received was a blue box, with no mention of the name Fowler anywhere. Only the part number, 72-482-028-0, was listed. On mine, the metal carrier is not very well aligned (the middle support shelf is not welded exactly parallel, but the top and bottoms are). The size of each punch is stamped or etched on the top which is nice. This set is made in China. Concerned that this may be a cheap imitation, I contacted the Fowler corporation and was told that this is indeed a Fowler product. I made a few punches into cherry stock and the tip showed no sign of wear. The punches themselves look well made. For the price I would give the benefit of the doubt that they will hold out and propose a 4-star rating. For the obvious hasty manufacturing I could never give a higher rating regardless of price.

I am very pleased with this set of transfer punches. The holder seems pretty durable and the punch points are nicely formed. These punches are for lightly marking where to place an actual center punch. A light tap with no more than a 4 ounce ball peen hammer is a good guideline.

should get many years of service from this set good buy

Wish I had bought a set of these years ago! Seemed to be good quality and we'll made.

This is not Fowler. It is a cheap knock off. Do not buy!

I'm using these punches for rivet and grommet setting. Great set, came really oiled, I guess they're worried about rust? The stand is pretty floppy but if you keep them in the original box it'll last. Great variety of sizes.

Okay

Très bien

Super
