Compact Single-Hole Punch for Mobile Use
The Swingline 74005 is a chrome-finished, all-metal handheld punch built for people who need a single precise 1/4-inch hole on the go. Its slim plier-style handle fits comfortably in the hand and slips into a pocket or backpack without adding bulk. The tool is made for light-duty tasks such as quick filing, tagging or binding a few pages at a time.
Light-Force Operation with Integrated Chip Tray
The hinged chip compartment catches every punched scrap so nothing litters the desk or bag. Opening the tray over a waste bin empties it in one motion, keeping the workspace clean during normal use. Because the mechanism only handles up to five sheets per press, the required hand force stays low and repeatable for everyday paperwork.
Not Suited for High-Volume or Multi-Hole Jobs
The five-sheet limit means the punch slows down anyone preparing large bundles or thick reports. Users who need two- or three-hole patterns for standard binders will find this single-hole design insufficient. Heavy daily throughput is better served by a lever-action desktop model with a higher sheet capacity.

Questions about this item
How do I use the plier-style handle on this Swingline 74005 punch, and what is the common mistake?
Squeeze the metal handles together to punch; the mistake is inserting more than five sheets, which jams the mechanism.
What part of this punch needs emptying, and how often?
The hinged chip compartment fills with paper scraps; open and empty it into a waste basket whenever it feels full.
At what sheet count does this punch start to bind during repeated use?
The mechanism binds when you exceed the five-sheet limit, so stop at five sheets per punch.
