Professional Pin Punch Set
The Starrett S248 is a 5-piece drive pin punch set built for technicians who need reliable tools for removing broken bolts and studs. It contains five distinct sizes: 1/4 in., 1/8 in., 3/16 in., 3/8 in. and 5/16 in. The set is designed for heavy daily use on the job site. Each punch is made from steel to resist bending and breaking under impact.
Steel Construction Durability
The one-piece design with a straight wireway spans 8 inches, providing reach and structural integrity during driving tasks. Steel construction ensures the tips maintain their shape after repeated hammer strikes. There are no moving parts or complex mechanisms to fail under load. The 1.35 weight figure reflects a substantial tool kit that stays planted on the workbench.
Organised Workshop Ready
Five clearly sized punches cover common automotive and machinery fastener diameters without gaps. The uniform 8-inch length allows consistent storage in standard tool rolls or drawer organisers. Users can select the correct diameter quickly without adjusting settings or swapping tips. The set suits professionals who prefer dedicated, fixed-size tools over adjustable alternatives.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 8-inch straight wireway punches without bending them?
Place the punch squarely on the pin centre, hold the 8-inch body perpendicular, and strike the flat end with a controlled hammer blow — angling the tool is the step that causes bending.
What maintenance will the steel punches need after repeated use?
Wipe each punch clean, apply a light oil film to prevent rust, and inspect the tips for mushrooming; dress any deformed ends with a fine file before the next job.
Which limit appears first when driving pins continuously with the 5-piece set?
The punch tip mushrooms and spreads before the steel body yields, so tip deformation is the first limit you will encounter under sustained use.
