This is a great tool I've had several already. I use it everyday in my work saves time drilling the holes. The only thing it's way too expensive.

Malco HP18KR Punch by Malco

It great for sheet metal work I use it for HVACR.. a must have comes with 2 dies. Malcolm are one of my favorite tool malers

Malco HP18KR Punch by Malco

these tools are outstanding, tough reliable. Have been using with students for many years and they can handle hard work by lots of people

Steve J. 5/5

Malco HP18KR Punch by Malco

Good tool, but the darn die that the rod punches against falls out and gets lost easily and then the $80 tool is worthless. This has happened to me twice. If they just glued or affixed the die in the punch tool better I would give 5 stars.

Amazon C. 2/5

Malco HP18KR Punch by Malco

Little pricey for what it does but I don't see how I can not have one now. In HVAC and this is time saver plus I don't have to worry about screwing my finger making holes in hangers.

Malco HP18KR Punch by Malco

It’s nice and light but it’s alittle hard to punch a hole and it sticks sometimes but I use it everyday and it’s still working

Jamie 3/5

Malco HP18KR Punch by Malco

Kind of expensive but when you use it and see how well it places a hole without drilling and metal shavings you will forget about the cost.Works great, punching multiple layers leaves holes perfectly aligned.

Used this tool before. Bought as a replacement. Shipped fast. Great tool from Malco.

Richard W. 5/5

Malco HP18KR Punch by Malco

This is a very handy tool to use for punching hole for 1/8" Pop rivets. Well designed with a greatly improved handle and lock mechanism Malco has gone to for many of their hand tools.

Copper B. 5/5

Malco HP18KR Punch by Malco

This is a very high quality tool as is clearly reflected in the price. Additional size punched are available - quite expensive at > $30.00++. Professional grade quality. Performs as expected.
