Punch tools create clean, defined openings and are used to prepare materials for snap fasteners, eyelets and hollow rivets. They are the universal solution for precise holes in textile, technical and craft applications.
Cutters produce round cuts with clearly defined diameters. They are ideal for larger cut-outs, circular shapes and projects requiring uniform discs – for example for coverable buttons or decorative elements.
This overview helps you choose the right tool directly for your project.
| Application / project | Recommended tool | Note |
