Apex 82274 Pin Punch 5/32 X 5-1/4 Inch Alloy Steel

Product Description

The APEX 82274 is a precision pin punch designed for driving out pins and rivets during final removal in mechanical and maintenance applications. Manufactured from alloy steel, this hex-stock punch features a precision-hardened working end built to withstand the repetitive, high-impact demands of professional jobsites. The striking end is softened and tapered to reduce the risk of chipping under hammer blows. A ground surface aids in quick identification, and laser-etched sizing guides are marked directly on the body for fast, accurate selection. At 0.1 pounds, it is a lightweight addition to any punch set.

This pin punch is suited for automotive, industrial maintenance, and general mechanical work where controlled driving force is needed to remove taper pins, roll pins, and rivets. The 5/32-inch tip diameter targets small-bore pins common in assemblies found in drivetrain components, machinery, and tooling fixtures. It is a standard hand tool for mechanics, machinists, and maintenance technicians working in both shop and field environments.

Key Features

• Precision-hardened working end for resistance to deformation under heavy-duty use
• Softened and tapered striking end reduces chipping risk during hammer contact
• Hex-stock body construction provides a positive grip and prevents rolling on flat surfaces
• Ground surface finish enables fast visual identification in a punch set
• Laser-etched sizing guides marked on the body for accurate size reference
• Lightweight alloy steel construction at 0.1 pounds

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hex-stock pin punch suitable for use with any ball-peen or mechanics hammer in applications requiring the removal of pins and rivets with a 5/32-inch diameter tip.

Installation Notes

This punch is installed by hand and driven with a ball-peen or mechanics hammer — no power tools are required. Always wear appropriate eye protection when striking any punch, as metal fragments can become projectiles. Position the punch tip squarely on the pin before striking to prevent the punch from slipping or deflecting. Inspect the striking end before each use and remove from service if mushrooming or cracking is observed.
