Review on πŸ’‘ TH0037 Electrical Hydraulic Knockout with Enhanced Warranty by Paulo Heisler

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great price for a hydraulic starter kit.

I love that the price was low, I'm an electrician by trade and this set is right on my budget. Now for the not so great parts of it. The bolt and dies appear to have some play and will wobble a little more than they should. I end up using Greenlee dies as they have much less wobble and better cutting ability. The on/off button is mislabeled and it doesn't concern me as I've been doing this for 20 years so tightening and loosening things comes naturally to me but when my student went and tried to use it he kept trying to loosen it up. to get it working properly, which was wrong because he read the label on the pin. This thing is great for the price, but it didn't have enough hydraulic fluid installed before it shipped. I believe it may need more liquid as it eventually clogs. So far I have been using this for about 2 weeks and am very happy with the price but understand that you will only punch out 2" and less than the small hole punch I chose for the large 4" set and it's a little over kill in size. Excellent return. I'll come back in a few months and do another review so everyone knows how it holds up in daily use.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
