1/16 Inch Roll Pin Punch | 66061 | Made in USA

I've had several Tekton punches before, bought locally, and really they're pretty decent. Still marked made in the USA...I suspect maybe by Wilde or Enderes, which have both always put out good tooling. Tiny long punches like this 1/16" are comparatively delicate (all of them, even the highest quality ones) so keep that in mind and if your pins are particularly tight fitting, frozen, or rusted, then use a drop of penetrant and a center punch to get them started, then follow through with this one. That usually still works just fine with roll pins as it does with solid pins and is the smart approach to preventing punch heartache or scratched parts. If you're bending them you may be using them incorrectly and you have to keep in mind that with the smallest punches like this, they are supposed to bend rather than shatter (there is a good metallurgical reason for this and nobody sells small punches with a heat treatment that makes them extra hard/stiff...you don't have enough mass to accommodate it until you move up to larger sizes). The tip on these actually measures the same as the current Starrett, which is a hair over 1.5mm (.0597...1.516mm) rather than 1/16". If that matters to you you'll have to look elsewhere but it'll be hard hunt. Behind the tip, these are correctly and very slightly relieved for clearance (.0590) but less so than other brands...enough to help, though. Usable pin length is just shy of an inch (about 24mm). If you need more length and can do without the nib, the Gedore 1.5mm punch gives you about a quarter inch more to work with (30mm) and is an excellent punch (Starrett still being a bit better steel but also not offering any long pin punches below 1/8"). No reason not to recommend these punches from Tekton and the handful of others I've had have served very well...just use them smartly. It's nice that they will stand behind defective (or abused) punches the way they do...almost nobody else will do that...and still manage to keep the pricing low.

Works as intended, good quality

The perfect size line up pin for TDC and TDF and ductmate ductwork. Makes the corners line up for bolt instalation with light effort. Great leverage. The perfect tool for that task. The tool will last forever. Or until someone borrows it and forgets to give it back anyway.

Good quality.

this is a decent 1/16th punch. I've used it for a lot of things, I need another one, these smaller punches don't have enough metal in them so they're a little soft. I've bent this one numerous times. if I take a little time and use a brass hammer I can straighten it back out and continue using it till I bend it again. Eventually the end will break off and I'll order another one. They work well enough and it holds up to the abuse I give it. This is my second one.

Nice punch. Made in USA. Worked perfectly for installing roll pin on Colt Python rear sight.

Used for inserting metal roll punches into a metal aperature. Works fine, no problems. There is a small detent on the tip rather than flat. Did not bend under moderate use. Also bought Tekton 1/16 with same positive results.
