The Starrett SB248Z set includes four brass drive pin punches with an 8" overall length, a 3-1/2" pin length, and 3/16", 1/4", 5/16", and 3/8" pin diameter sizes to push pins and rivets into or out of a workpiece. The extra-long drive pin section provides greater reach in recessed areas, which makes it suitable for machine shop and motor service work. Each punch has a brass pin, which is softer than hardened steel and better for use on delicate materials, and has a steel round shank, which is knurled for grip. The set comes with a fabric pouch for storage.
Pin punches are used to insert or knock out rivets and pins in assemblies. They have a metal shank on one end and a metal pin driver on the other, and are typically tapped with a hammer.
The L.S. Starrett Company manufactures precision measuring tools, metrology and testing equipment, and saw blade products. The company, founded in 1880, is headquartered in Athol, MA.
