Air-powered nail guns are tools that use compressed air to drive nails into various materials, such as wood or drywall. They are commonly used in construction and woodworking projects, providing a fast and efficient way to secure materials together. These tools can significantly reduce the time and effort needed compared to manual nailing. Typically, air-powered nail guns require an air compressor to function. The compressor generates the compressed air that powers the nail gun, allowing it to shoot nails with precision and speed. Safety features, such as triggers and depth adjustments, help ensure proper use and prevent accidents during operation.
