Product Information
Full details
This Bosch Hole Punch is designed for users of orbital sanders or those who prefer hand sanding. Its primary benefit is to efficiently create holes in sanding sheets, improving dust extraction and preventing clogging. A potential caveat is that it is an accessory specifically for sanding sheets and not for other materials. Key features include its durable plastic construction, a size of 115mm x 280mm, and 14 pre-punched holes for effective dust management.

Troubleshooting
Sanding sheet not getting perforated
Ensure you are applying firm, even pressure. Check that the sanding sheet is lying flat against the hole punch. The material of the sanding sheet may be exceptionally thick, requiring more force.
Holes are not clean or are tearing the sandpaper
Ensure the sanding sheet is properly aligned and not bunched up. Make sure the hole punch is clean and free of debris that might interfere with the punching action.
Dust extraction still seems poor
Verify that the holes created by the punch align with the dust extraction ports on your sander's pad. Ensure your sander's dust collection system is functioning correctly and the bag/container is not full.
