MAINTENANCE
The centre punch offers the best performance when it is maintained well. It is recommended that sharpening of the centre punch is done at normal forging temperatures and allowed to air cool. The centre punch should ideally be placed on the side of the forge whilst cooling. It is not recommended that the centre punch is placed on a cold surface as sudden cooling may cause stress fractures. Any burrs that may occur on the head should be regularly ground back.
