Applications in steel construction

The through-piercing tube punching tool punches round tubes and hollow sections by driving the punch through both tube walls in a single stroke. This produces aligned through-holes for bolted and pin connections without cutting the tube open. It is used wherever tubes need to be bolted, pinned through, or fitted with cross connectors.

Typical applications

  • Through-holes for bolted connections on railing, scaffolding, and frame tubes
  • Hole patterns for through-pins and cross braces
  • Fastening holes on tubular posts and handrail structures
  • Holes for tube connectors and node joints in tubular frame construction
  • Aligned pairs of holes with no offset on both tube walls

Which businesses use it

Used in steel construction, metalworking, and locksmithing, as well as in railing, scaffolding, and tubular frame construction.

Frequently asked questions

Why punch tubes instead of drilling them?

Through-punching produces both walls in alignment in a single stroke, without having to clamp, centre-punch, and drill the tube in two separate operations. This saves marking-out and setup time and avoids offset between the two holes.

Does the tube keep its shape during punching?

The tool is designed for through-punching tubes so that the punch cleanly penetrates both walls. A low-distortion result depends on a matching punch diameter, the tube wall thickness, and the correct seating of the tube in the tool.
