Klein Tools 53819 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What conduit sizes do the Klein knockout punches cover?
Two conduit sizes are offered: a 1/2-inch conduit punch (Klein 53819) and a 1-1/4-inch conduit punch (Klein 53849). The 1-1/4-inch version cuts a 1.701-inch hole. The conduit size is stamped right on the punch, so you can grab the right one out of the pouch without measuring.
2) Will a Klein knockout punch go through an enclosure made of 10 gauge steel?
Yes, up to that point. The Klein knockout punch is rated for a maximum capacity of 10 gauge mild steel, so standard panel and junction box sheet metal is within range. Anything heavier than 10 gauge mild steel is past the punch's rating.
3) Can I use a knockout punch on a fiberglass or plastic enclosure, or is it steel only?
Besides mild steel, the Klein knockout punch also cuts aluminum, fiberglass and plastic. That covers FRP and PVC enclosures as well as aluminum covers, so one punch handles mixed-material work.
4) Do I need a hydraulic driver, or can I turn a knockout punch with a wrench?
This is a manual draw-stud style punch turned with a wrench. Klein's design is optimized to reduce the wrench effort needed to pull the hole, so it is workable by hand on panel-gauge steel without a hydraulic pump.
5) How do you get the slug out of a knockout punch after the cut?
The slugs are split inside the punch, so they break and drop out instead of wedging in the cutter. That saves prying a stuck disc out mid-install, which is the usual annoyance on a long day of panel work.
6) What finish is on the Klein knockout punch, and does it hold up in a service truck?
Black oxide. It gives the cutter and die a corrosion-resistant surface for tool-pouch and truck-box storage, and the punch cuts cleanly and accurately for finished hole edges in a panel.
