I best option is to use a knock out/punch kit, like the OP
suggested.
Drilling is OK but a step bit can make a real mess of a hole and
stainless makes it even worse.

Ordered a nice new stainless steel outdoor enclosure
to house some equipment. I need to put some 3/4 inch
holes in it. Anyone happen to know if using a regular
Klein or Greenlee punch set will do the trick? I know
they work great on mild steel but wasn't sure about
stainless.

Anyone ever done it before?

Thanks,

[WISPA] Slightly OT: punching holes in stainless steel enclosures

2016-06-18 Thread mike . lyon 
Howdy.

Ordered a nice new stainless steel outdoor enclosure to house some equipment. I 
need to put some 3/4 inch holes in it. Anyone happen to know if using a regular 
Klein or  Greenlee punch set will do the trick? I know they work great on mild 
steel but wasn't sure about stainless.

Anyone ever done it before?

Thanks,
Mike
