Q-max Q Max Sheet Metal Hole Punch Metric 45mm QMA45M

The Q Max 45mm Sheet Metal Hole Punch provides robust cutting capability for substantial apertures in sheet metal up to 16 gauge. This larger size is particularly useful for sizeable electrical installations, larger mounting fixtures, and applications requiring a 45mm hole diameter. Built with heat-treated cutting edges and a black anti-corrosive finish, this punch delivers consistently clean, burr-free holes. The special design ensures even load distribution during cutting, providing smooth operation and professional results with reduced operator effort during extended use. This larger punch features the modified configuration with the thread in the punch body itself, eliminating the need for a die nut. The simplified assembly makes setup faster and operation more efficient. A 10mm hexagonal wrench (MC type) is required to turn the mechanism and draw the punch cleanly through the metal, providing the necessary torque for this substantial cutting diameter. Features and Benefits: • 45mm hole diameter suitable for substantial mounting and electrical applications • Requires 10mm hexagonal wrench (MC type, sold separately) • Simplified larger-size configuration for convenient operation • Heat-treated cutting edges ensure long tool life • Burr-free holes eliminate time-consuming finishing Specifications: Punch Type: Metric Diameter (mm): 45 Key Type: MC. 10mm Hex Key Pilot Drill (mm): 12.7
