Professional punchers: review of the best models and reviews

Punch is a tool that canuseful in everyday life at any time. Professional perforators perfectly cope with drilling holes in brick, concrete and any other surface by means of rotational and reciprocating movements. It is due to them that the high efficiency of the device is ensured.

Secrets of choice

For professional purposes, they are best suitedElectric perforators, capable of withstanding heavy loads compared to impact drills. At the same time, the thoughtfulness of the constructions allows using professional drills as a drill, as a device for drilling with a shock effect, and as a baffle, if it is required to make stitches for wiring or for tiling the tiles. So, when choosing a professional device, it is still worth starting from their main technical characteristics:

1. Forces impact on the material. This characteristic for the perforator is the main one, since it depends on it, where the device can be used. The impact force is directly affected by the power of the engines. Let's say that 3,2 joules is enough to handle a brick surface, and if you want to work with reinforced concrete or stone, more powerful models will be needed.
2. The speed of rotation of the rig: it affects the frequency of the impact. Making large diameter holes requires a lot of energy, and it can be developed only if the speed of rotation is reduced.
3. Features of work: Professional punchers can operate from a battery or from a network. It is noteworthy that both versions differ in performance. But the battery models are autonomous, so they can not be better suited for work where there is no network.
4. Presence of operating modes: some punchers can work in several modes - they drill, drill with a shock effect and perform shock work.
5. Engine Arrangements: it can be located horizontally or vertically, with the first variants being encountered more often. Vertical arrangement makes the device itself compact, and its design - more balanced. The peculiarity of these tools is the ability to withstand heavy loads, easy cooling and less vibration that goes to the handle.

For someone it may be important andcertain additional features, for example, overload protection or the possibility of electronic speed control. All this should be taken into account when choosing a particular model. Now we offer an overview of popular brands and models of punchers, about which most of all good reviews.
