I allways called top pic transfer punchs for transfering a center through another hole. but would work for roll pins. RENE'

The gasket punch set is something I got years 10-15 years ago! I've spent hours with scissors, razor blades, knives, air line ferrules,etc. cutting out holes in gaskets!! That set looks like the MAC set I've got . Also does mud flaps, just back it up on wood of course or you dull your punch! A co-worker beat one one of mine up one time and it pained me to no end! The bearing splitters are nice too for transmission/rear end work. I just can't afford 'em. Another good puller is the "Posi-Lock" puller! Go to posi-lock's web site and they'll send you an awesome catalog. Happy New Year!!!

Best I've found cheap sets are easier to drill out when they break. >)

Somebody is the Snap On man's new best friend. What do you have wrapped up in those new tools? My guess is about $1800 to $2200. I will agree those punches are great. I have a set of Craftsman ones that I couldn't live without.

Are manufacturers still using as many roll pins as they used to? Seems to me that I have seen few of them in recent years.

My new Hitachi drill press had a roll pin that was partially sheard from the factory. Hitachi told their dealer to replace the entire assembly; they were not to drill or try to punch out the roll pin. I took the old part back home and punched out the pin myself but never needed to use that old part.

When I worked for Dana there was a gasket punch set available from Victor just like that for less money except the Box was Dana blue instead of Snap On red. I should have gotten me a set!

Harbor Freight has a fairly decent set.

if you look up the part no. ppr708k, you can see these are roll pin punches. altho hard to see in the pic, the tips are rounded, and dont have the point like a transfer punch. this set is sized to match most common roll pins.

Had this set from Mayhew for probably 30 years.

Mayhew back in business. Made right here in the good old USA.

To make these punches even more useful - drill a dimple in the big end to keep an air hammer punch in place when you are working by feel only & no room to swing a hammer.

Them tools are a little shinny do you ever ues'em..

Just pull'n yer strang

 

[moresmoke]

You can get roll pin punches that go in your air hammer. Some of the younger guys I work with have them, seems they don't know how to swing a hammer.

I second the Harbor Freight gasket punches, I have a snap on set at work just like the ones pictured, Harbor Freight has the snappy ones beat, even showed the dealer how much better they are and cheaper.

About 5 years ago i started taking pictures of any new tools i
buy for the shop and load the pics into photobucket, and keep
copies of the receipts at home. I figure if anything happens, i
have a record for the ins company. Hope i never need em.

got a gasket punch set just like that. Use them 4 or 5 times a year.
