The pneumatic fastening tool designed for high-volume applications utilizes a collated nail system. This system, consisting of nails held together in a coiled configuration, allows for rapid and continuous driving of fasteners into various materials, primarily wood. An example of its use is in sheathing and fencing projects where speed and efficiency are paramount.
The utility of these tools lies in their ability to significantly reduce reloading time compared to strip-fed nailers, resulting in increased productivity and reduced labor costs. Historically, these types of nailers emerged as a solution for large-scale construction and manufacturing operations that demanded a more efficient fastening method than traditional hand-nailing or other less automated systems.
