Abstract
A heavy duty punch for piercing armor plate and the like has a shank by which the punch may be held when in use and a piercing end projecting axially from the shank. The piercing end terminates in a sharp-edged tip. The tip is connected to the shank by a reduced-diameter portion defined by a curved sidewall extending axially from the tip toward the shank and a straight-sided sidewall extending axially from the curved sidewall toward the shank. The straight-sided sidewall is spaced from the tip a distance slightly greater than the thickness of the workpiece being punched; the diameter of the straight-sided sidewall is slightly less than the diameter of the tip.
