Cable Punches, Tools, & Accessories
Hand hydraulic punch drivers, also known as hydraulic knockout punch tools, are portable and manual devices used to create holes or knockouts in metal sheets, panels, or enclosures. They are commonly employed in electrical and industrial applications for cable entry or conduit installation.
These tools are designed to provide a mechanical advantage and ease of operation when compared to manual methods such as drilling or using traditional knockout punches. Hand hydraulic punch drivers utilize hydraulic pressure generated by hand pumping or lever mechanisms to drive a punch through the metal material, creating a clean and precise hole.
Hand hydraulic punch drivers typically consist of a punch head, a die, a hydraulic ram, and a handle or pumping mechanism. The punch head and die are interchangeable to accommodate various hole sizes, while the hydraulic ram provides the necessary force to punch through the metal. The handle or pumping mechanism allows the user to generate hydraulic pressure to power the punch operation.
These tools are advantageous for their portability, versatility, and efficiency in creating holes or knockouts without the need for power tools or extensive setup. They are commonly used by electricians, sheet metal workers, and installers who need to quickly and accurately create holes for cable entry, conduit connections, cable punches, or mounting fixtures in metal surfaces.
It's important to note that proper safety precautions should be followed when using hand hydraulic punch drivers, including wearing appropriate personal protective equipment and ensuring the work surface is securely clamped or supported to prevent accidents or injuries.
