Can this punch through 1/4" thick items?

Yes, I originally purchased this item to go through mason jar lids,it does with ease.

Yes, it won't just blow through it, but it will cut it. If you're cutting a lot of it, a band saw would work better.

I use it for that exact purpose on thicker stock 1"-4" but yeah it would work. I think they make an extra fine blade also, it would probably be better for thin stock.

It is not meant for that. You might do it once, but that would be the end of that punch. It is really not meant for metal any thicker than aluminum foil.

I haven't tried it but I think it would do OK with a 1/4" plywood. Not sure the "blade" would do well on thicker material. You would have to move slowly. My opinion.

Hi, I would imagine so. I've used this excellent punch on all kinds of material especially fairly thick leather. Thanks, Bill

This tool would probably destroy any 1/4 in bit. That being said if you got an adapter it would work.

Probably, with effort. I was trying to punch through card stock and it wasn't fun. It's a really flimsy hole punch.

I think you would have a problem with something as thick as a penny.The punch is great but for a penny I would use a drill.

The very smallest punch will punch a hole in a thin ( .012" ) piece of cotton blend cloth. The largest punch will penetratethe cloth but will not leave a round hole.

Yes up to about half inch, I think it will bend thicker pieces with a longer lever arm, but I haven't tried that yet.

It's rounded and only about a 1/4 of an inch thick, so I don't think so. Hope that helps.

Yes, it will cut through, as long as you take into account: 1) You have to have the hand strength to compress the punch to cut through a thicker material. If you can't squeeze the punch hard enough, the blades can't do the work. 2) The blades will be initially sharp enough, but will dull a tiny bit with each use. To sharpen the blades, cut through a very fine sandpaper a few times. You will feel the difference. 3) If the contact paper has a sticky adhesive, it will get on the blades and you will need to stop and clean them. You could try one of the label removing solvents, like Glue Gone, on a cotton ball or rag.

I used it to cut holes in 1/4 inch floor tiles with success. I never tried cutting as deep as it will go.....

Well, I just happened to have my punch and some scrap felt here, so I tried it. The answer is no, it will not go through felt at all. The felt lodged up in the punch and it took me nearly five minutes to rip it all out. I thought I'd broken the punch for a minute there.

Use a 1/4 0r 1/8 inch punch depending on what you are punching. I use the 1/4 ch on thick paper to crochet around.

I think it might possibly slip in place to cut but I do not think this cutter would be strong enough to cut paper that thick. Card stock worked well so I think that might be best.
