For tough fastening jobs that require more than human power, pneumatic tools are a good solution. Air tools are specialty tools that were created to handle jobs like driving rivets into steel. Craftsman, Ingersoll, Trademark and Chicago are leaders in the air tool industry. Their reliable air hammers, air riveters, air compressors and other air driven power tools have helped workers erect tall skyscrapers, build bridges and build structures that otherwise would not have been built.

Air compressors and air tools are standard equipment on many construction sites. Craftsman air tools and those made by other manufacturers help get work done better and faster. Air tools also deliver more power for their weight than other tools. Lighter tools make work a little easier. Air tools are safer than electric power tools because the worker does not need to worry about cutting into an electrical cord. An air compressor is used with pneumatic tools. Gas or compressed air is supplied to the air tool from the air or gas compressor machine. The compressed air is passed to the air tool through a flexible tube.

The first pneumatic drills were developed as a tool for the mining industry. Compressed air tools worked better in mines because they did not present a fire hazard. Compressed air could be sent to air tools over long distances without losing energy. When used, the air would help ventilate a mine shaft or tunnel. Pneumatic rock drills were first used to drill tunnels. These drills are also called jackhammers. As word spread, pneumatic drills and air hammers were refined for use on less difficult jobs. Other air specialty tools include the airbrush, sandblaster, paint sprayer, pneumatic nail gun, air ratchet and air impact wrench.

Powerful air tools, such as those made by Craftsman and other manufacturers, are a mainstay in the construction industry. They are now finding new acceptance by do-it-yourselfers. Even a small automotive repair job can be done better and faster with pneumatic buffers and other air tools. Air tools also are an excellent gift item.
