Dayton thread form works by punching the hole lancing the material and cutting a helical spiral in the material to form the proper thread helix for the desired type of metal screw.

Sheet metal punch thread.

The punch is then threaded onto the tip of the draw stud and brought close to the sheet metal. Create larger holes and make repeated punches with these drivers that supply 11 tons of force to the included hole punches. Punch and die set 9 pc.
