Air tools, also known as pneumatic tools, are powered by compressed air instead of electricity. They are commonly used in various industries, including automotive and construction, for tasks like drilling, sanding, and fastening. The use of compressed air allows these tools to be lightweight and efficient, making them easier to handle for extended periods. These tools require an air compressor to function, which generates and stores the compressed air needed for operation. Popular types of air tools include impact wrenches, air hammers, and spray guns. Their high power-to-weight ratio makes them a preferred choice for professionals seeking reliable performance.
