About this item

  • Perfect Tool Every Time - Center Punches are essential for any project or home improvement! They allow you to make an indentation in an object so that you can drill a hole without slipping and ruining your project.
  • Easy to Use - Simply place the punch over the mark on your workpiece and strike with a hammer. This tool can be used for many different applications including marking drill holes, scribing lines, aligning parts and more!
  • Long Lasting - Starrett Punch is made of specially selected steel, hardened and tempered, offering exceptional durability and resistance to wear and tear. It will give you satisfying and good quality results.
  • Keep Control - The Starrett Center Punch has a square knurled grip that provides stability and will not roll when laid down. It is very reliable and perfect for any project you take on.
  • The Standard for Excellence - Proudly made in the USA, Starrett combines over 140 years of American heritage and innovation with globally sourced materials to deliver exceptional quality tools and products.


The Starrett 264F center punch is 4-1/2" long and has a 7/16" thick square shank with a 3/16" (5 mm) diameter tapered point. The punch has a tempered steel shank for strength and a hardened steel point for wear resistance. The shank is knurled for grip and has a square shape to prevent it from rolling when placed on a work surface.

Center punches make small dimple marks in a workpiece to help guide a drill bit. Manual center punches have a metal shank with a point and are typically tapped with a ball-peen hammer to mark the material. Automatic center punches have an internal spring mechanism that enables them to mark the material without using a hammer, leaving one hand free for steadying the work.

The L.S. Starrett Company manufactures precision measuring tools, metrology and testing equipment, and saw blade products. The company, founded in 1880, is headquartered in Athol, MA.

What can you say about a center punch? It does a great job and to me it feels solid when stricken with a hammer. It also feels comfortable when using. This one will work for anyone needing a quality center punch.

I bought this item expecting to get the set as displayed in the picture that is advertised... This is only the ONE tool that is in the second picture that looks like a spike! Im sure someone can say it was only $7 and you get what you pay for, but Amazon is known for great prices and the advertised product picture can be VERY MISLEADING!

The photo pictures multiple punches in a case. You will receive one punch in your package no multiples and no case.The rhetoric is deceiving within the description although easy enough for the seller to say Oh, Sorry.Beware!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
