## Description

Product Description The Starrett S117PC set includes five centre punches with a round shank and 1/16", 5/64", 3/32", 1/8" and 5/32" diameter tapered points. The set comes with a red plastic case for storage. Each punch is made from hardened and tempered steel, which provides wear resistance and strength. The round shanks are knurled for grip. Centre punches make small dimple marks in a workpiece to help guide a drill bit. Manual centre punches have a metal shank with a point and are typically tapped with a ball-peen hammer to mark the material. Automatic centre 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. Box Contains 5 x Center Punch (Each of size: 1.5 mm x 75 mm, 2 mm x 100 mm, 2.5 mm x 100 mm, 3 mm x 100 mm and 4 mm x 100 mm)

Review: The price is well worth it for the quality - These may be more expensive than 90% of other centre punches but after purchasing these based on the reputation of Starrett they became the highest quality tools I had up until that point. Beautifully crafted and finished they won't let you (or your great grandchildren) down. Useful to have different sizes. When I bought these I winced at the price but as soon as they arrived there was not one tiny smidgeon of regret. These will last 2 lifetimes.
Review: Expensive, like a Rolls Royce. - These are my favourite things in the world. Well maybe that’s an exaggeration, but they are so nice to handle. It’s one of those things that you won’t understand until you hold these things. They just ooze quality and even smell great. They come in a little red plastic pouch that smells divine. I was trying to work out what it reminded me of, and concluded it’s a material I haven’t smelt in the UK since maybe the 70’s or 80’s. Like the sort of plastic they used for water wings or rubber rings for the swimming pool or beach. Just sniffing the pouch brought back memories of childhood holidays, packing the car and the feeling of gritty sand in your sandals. Ahem, anyway, back to the lunches. They’re lovely, well made if a little expensive and bring pride of ownership. Gombe you’ve bought these, also buy a set of the cheaper S&R ones which are also well made, in case someone asks to borrow your set.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this set marked as being made in the USA?**
A: The starrett box that it comes in is marked USA.

**Q: A set of seven and five in the picture?**
A: I bought my set of center punches based on 5 pcs. shown online and confirmation from printed Starrett catalog # 30 (2002).  I feel certain that a typo was made when setting up the item at Amazon (no disrespect meant). As far as quality, no problem if it says Starrett on the tool.  The soft flexible red plastic case only specifies part numbers for each compartment, not sizes.  The same holds true for the individual punches, part number, no size.  The part number/size is as follows: 117AA= 1/16", 117A= 5/64", 117B= 3/32", 117C= 1/8", & 117d= 5/32".  This set of tools is well worth the investment.

**Q: I work hard and hands get sweaty , will these get rusty from that? Wont have time to clean and oil after each use. Do these need to be pampered?**
A: Pamper them? No. Ordinary maintenence, yes. Just about any tool will rust or corrode if not taken care of. But you know that. Wipe them off with an oily rag before any long term storage and they will out last the owner.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality.

It's Starter and comes with all the quality you would expect from a well established engineering tool company. In short if you don't know about Starter then you don't need quality engineering tools.
