ToolPro Grid Punch for 1/8 inch Aluminum Pull Rivets

When upgrading a suspended ceiling, you need a tool that fits tight corners, handles demanding jobs, and delivers precise rivet work. The ToolPro Grid Punch is designed to help you connect grid sections that have been cut to non-standard lengths, without sacrificing surface integrity or alignment. Its thoughtful design aims to streamline your workflow from first punch to final rivet, offering tangible benefits for professional installers and seasoned DIYers alike.

What it does

It punches clean .132 inch holes for 1/8 inch rivets in all grid widths, enabling secure joins across standard and custom lengths. The tool is engineered for one-handed operation, making it easier to position grid pieces, guide rivets, and complete connections even in tight spaces.

• Connect ceiling grid pieces that aren’t standard length, expanding installation options.
• Punch precise holes that accommodate 1/8 inch rivets with consistent spacing.
• One-handed operation simplifies work while keeping the other hand free for tasks or safety measures.

Surface care and durability

A rubber cup protects painted and powder-coated grid surfaces from percussion marks or scratches during riveting. This feature helps preserve the appearance and longevity of your ceiling grid over time, especially on pre-finished panels.

• Rubber cup minimizes impact on delicate finishes during use.
• Clean, controlled rivet insertion reduces the risk of marring or chipping.

What’s included and compatibility

Along with the punch, you’ll receive a free wear parts kit to minimize downtime and keep the tool performing at its best. It works with ToolPro 1/8 inch Aluminum Pull Rivets, specifically models TP05080, TP05085, TP05090, and TP05095.

• Free wear parts kit included for extended tool life.
• Designed to pair with the listed ToolPro rivet models for reliable results.

Real-world use

Whether you’re finishing a ceiling retrofit, replacing damaged grid sections, or installing new panels, this punch helps you achieve consistent hole size and rivet alignment. The grip is comfortable, and the overall feel supports long sessions without fatigue, making it a practical addition to a ceiling installation toolkit.
