Drift punch Gedore 570007 Steel 120 mm Blue Handle

The Gedore 570007 drift punch is a compact, precision tool crafted from durable steel with a blue handle designed for secure gripping. At 120 mm long and weighing approximately 90 g, this drift punch is intended for controlled impact work such as driving out pins, aligning holes, and light assembly tasks. Its solid construction supports repeated use in metalworking and mechanical workshops while the handle improves handling and reduces slippage during operation.

Advantages

The steel shaft provides wear resistance and dimensional stability under impact, while the ergonomically shaped blue handle ensures a firmer hold and better control. The 120 mm length balances reach and control for both confined and open working areas. The relatively low weight makes the tool easy to position precisely, reducing user fatigue during repetitive tasks.

Suitable for

• Driving out or aligning pins and dowels in metal assemblies
• Light punching and chiselling tasks in workshop and maintenance work
• Precision positioning during assembly or disassembly of mechanical parts
• General metalworking and automotive repair where small, controlled impacts are required

Key specifications

• Material: heat-treated steel shaft for impact resistance
• Handle: molded blue handle for improved grip
• Length: 120 mm overall
• Weight: approximately 90 g
• Typical application: drift punch for pin driving and alignment

How to use

Hold the drift punch by the handle and position the hardened tip against the target pin or alignment point. Use a hammer or mallet to deliver controlled, perpendicular blows to the punch head until the pin is driven out or parts are aligned. Maintain a steady stance and ensure the workpiece is properly supported or clamped to prevent movement. Inspect the tip before use and remove any burrs or deformation that could affect accuracy.

Recommendations

Wear appropriate eye protection when using the drift punch and use a hammer suited to the task to avoid excessive force. Do not use the tool for prying or levering; limit use to driving and aligning operations. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion and check the handle and shaft for damage before each use.
