Genomdrivare Bahco 3659-1.8

The BAHCO Drift punch 3659-1.8 is a compact alignment tool designed for precise positioning of components in metalwork and woodworking. Constructed from durable steel with a stainless steel handle, this 85 mm long drift punch weighs approximately 20 g, combining lightness with reliable strength. Its slim profile and hardened tip provide accurate engagement with holes and slots, facilitating fast and controlled alignment during assembly or repair tasks.

Advantages

The drift punch offers a corrosion-resistant stainless steel handle for improved grip and longevity, while the hardened steel body resists wear under repeated use. Its compact 85 mm length allows access in confined spaces and gives good control for delicate alignment jobs. With a low weight of about 20 g, the tool reduces hand fatigue during extended use and is easy to carry among other hand tools.

Suitable for

• Aligning holes in metal parts during assembly
• Positioning dowels or pins in woodworking
• Starting or aligning fasteners and rivets
• Use in tight or confined workspaces where precision is required

Key specifications

• Material: hardened steel body with stainless steel handle
• Overall length: 85 mm
• Weight: approximately 20 g
• Tip type: precision hardened tip for alignment
• Finish: corrosion-resistant stainless handle

How to use

Select the drift punch and position the tip into the hole or slot that requires alignment. Apply gentle pressure while moving the parts to bring holes into line; use steady, controlled taps with a light hammer if additional force is needed. Maintain a perpendicular orientation to the workpiece to avoid bending the punch. After use, clean any debris from the tip and store the tool in a dry place to preserve the stainless handle and hardened tip.

Recommendations

Use the drift punch for alignment tasks only; avoid using it as a substitute for a chisel or for prying. Wear appropriate eye protection when tapping the punch with a hammer. Inspect the tip regularly for wear and replace the tool if the tip becomes deformed to maintain accuracy.
