Can a hole-puncher be used to punch a hole through it?

It is about 1/16 inch thick. Most three-hole punches could punch through this. Most single-hole, hand-operated punches would work too. You would be limited to within about 1/2 inch of the edge of the material. You could also use a hammer-driven punch and possibly a drill bit that is about 1/4 inch, but that could tear the cork. Try a small sample. Mostly, the answer is "yes".

Yes, it would be easy to punch a hole through the cork. The roll is also easy to cut with scissors.

I have the punch. It's not very big. Maybe 1 1/2 by 2 1/2. Ill test it and let you know.

YES it can, as long as it is not too thick. If the hole is large, use a wood plug or short bolt/screw to fill the void and the Permatex as a sealer around it.

I am looking for a heavy duty hole punch. I have gone threw several hole punches and need one that makes smooth leather hole punches on literally a thousand usages. Will this do the job. ?

You can but a Hammer drill would be faster. For small diameter holes with a masonry bit it will work if you take your time.

I think that would work fine, just make sure you remove the plastic film form the back before punching the holes. :)

Yes it will cut through metal. Some metals better than others. If you want to go through just a few holes you're in good shape. If you will be doing this for a business and doing many holes, I would suggest spending more money on a profession set of knock out punches.

I think you can. I used it to punch a stack of 10 pieces of paper and it worked fine. It should work on index cards.

I use these on harness leather . These hole punches are a must have and work great in conjunction with a leather wheel hole punch.I recommend a kitchen vinyl plastic cutting board as an additional to act as an punch board.----I hope this info helps you

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

Dinky ol' spoons and forks? No Problem! If you want to punch holes through the metal, check out the "Eurotool EuroPunch 1.25mm Round Hole Punch Pliers for Sheet Metal" -- both amazingly powerful products.

The tip is mighty sharp. It doesn't actually make a hole in anything but is used to make a little indent in your drilling surface so your drill bit doesn't float when you do try to make a precision hole. You can also put your drill bit beside the tip and confirm the size that way. If the bit is wider than the tip of the punch then good, if its the same size then there you go. The size of this punch is like around the size of ball point pin so its not going to make a great big pilot indent...

I don't believe that this press would be capable of punching a 3.5" hole in an aluminum computer side panel. It is made to press in pins and inserts.

I have not tried it, however, on our aluminum signs, the hole is perfectly punched and very smooth. Good Luck!

Id say unless the drawer already has an oval punchout that you can knock out with a screwdriver, no. Its meant for a pretty large opening and youd need a precisely placed hole thats pretty big .

No it can not......you could punch the holes then flip the paper over and punch them again, but lining up the holes would be a task.....other than that it is an awesome machine.

It's not long enough to punch three (standard-distanced) holes on one page. If you DO decide to purchase the unit, you will be pleasantly surprised with the heavy-duty quality.
