Greenlee 28156 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Greenlee Slug-Splitter SC punch cut through a stainless steel enclosure?
Yes. The Slug-Splitter SC round knockout punch is rated for capacity through 10 gauge stainless steel, which covers most heavier-duty stainless panels and enclosures as well as ordinary painted steel boxes. That rating is the deciding spec if you are modifying a washdown or food-service enclosure, where a standard punch often stalls.
2) What conduit sizes does the Greenlee 28156 Slug-Splitter SC punch family cover?
Four conduit trade sizes: 3/4 inch (28156), 1 inch (28158), 1-1/4 inch (28160) and 1-1/2 inch (28162). Each is ordered as its own punch by size, so pick the trade size of the connector or fitting you are landing in the panel.
3) Can I use this knockout punch with my Milwaukee or Greenlee battery hydraulic driver?
The Slug-Splitter SC punches are built for use with battery-powered, hydraulic, and ram drivers, so they suit a cordless knockout tool, a hand pump hydraulic setup, or a ram-and-cylinder arrangement. Confirm the draw stud thread on your driver matches the punch set you order.
4) What is the difference between a Slug-Splitter punch and a regular knockout punch?
A standard punch shears out a full disc of metal that can bind in the punch and has to be worked free. The Slug-Splitter SC design splits the slug as it punches, so the piece drops out easily and the finished hole needs less cleanup. On a panel where you are cutting a dozen holes, that is where the time goes.
5) Should I use a knockout punch or a hole saw for conduit openings in a live panel?
A punch is the better choice inside an enclosure. It shears the hole in one stroke with no chips or filings spraying across busbars and terminations, where a hole saw throws metal debris and can walk on sheet metal. The Slug-Splitter SC produces a round hole sized to standard conduit knockouts, so connectors seat without filing or deburring.
6) I need to stock punches for a crew doing stainless enclosure work. What should I order?
Order by trade size, one punch per size you expect to cut: 28156 for 3/4 inch, 28158 for 1 inch, 28160 for 1-1/4 inch, 28162 for 1-1/2 inch. All four carry the same 10 gauge stainless capacity and work off the same battery, hydraulic, or ram driver, so a crew can standardize on one driver and add sizes as the job demands.
7) Are Greenlee Slug-Splitter SC punches made in the USA?
Yes, the Slug-Splitter SC round knockout punches are manufactured in the United States. That matters on public and institutional jobs carrying domestic-sourcing requirements on tooling purchases.
