HOW TO USE:
- Identify Misaligned Holes: Position the workpieces or components that need to be aligned. Observe the holes to determine the degree of misalignment.
- Insert the Tapered End: Take the Mayhew 22012 Line-Up Punch and gently insert its tapered 3/16″ point into one of the misaligned holes.
- Drive for Alignment: With light, controlled hammer strikes to the blunt end of the punch, drive the punch through the partially aligned holes. The tapered design will gradually force the components into perfect alignment.
- Verify Alignment: Once the punch is fully driven through, the holes should be perfectly concentric.
- Remove Punch and Insert Fastener: Carefully withdraw the line-up punch. The holes are now precisely aligned and ready for the insertion of your rivet, pin, or bolt without obstruction.
