Does anyone know of a tool like the Greenlee 720 Keyway Punch that is designed to be used on Stainless Steel?



Thanks,

Bob

Just use your regular one, sure it won't hold up for long, but my guess would be that a unit that is designed for the stainless would cost a small fortune.

I am told that the punch for the 720 is about $80 to replace, so depending on how long the regular one lasts, it may be justified to spend some money on one that is designed for SS, if I could locate one.



Thanks

I have, and still do from time to time, use the regular 720 punch on stainless. It has held up pretty well so far, as long as you are not going to be doing a huge number of holes in stainless panels you should be fine using it.
