Lay Flat Punch

Common Specifications

Lay flat punches are generally handheld and manually operated. Specific products may vary in material and design, but common specifications are as follows: 

• Hole Diameters: Designed to create standard, precise hole sizes in the lay flat pipe, commonly available in 16 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, and 32 mm diameters.
• Material: The body is often made from high-strength plastic, such as polypropylene copolymer, while the cutting blade is typically made from hardened stainless steel for longevity and a clean cut.
• Design: Features an ergonomic design for a comfortable grip and ease of use, reducing fatigue during prolonged operation.
• Application: Exclusively for use on flexible lay flat or PE (polyethylene) pipes and hoses for drip and surface irrigation systems.
• Function: In addition to punching the hole, some tools feature a second end or design aspect to help insert emitters, drippers, or 1/4 inch fittings into the newly created hole.
