What are Some Examples of Compressed Air Tools?
Compressed air tools are powered by air compression, which is supplied by an air compressor connected to the tool with an air hose. The air compressor creates power by condensing and compressing air to as little as 1/8 its original volume. As the air attempts to expand to its original volume, it creates energy that is harnessed as power. A compressed air tool is also called a pneumatic tool. Examples of a compressed air tool include a nail gun, wrench, drill, and hammer, though this is by no means an exhaustive list. Manufacturing facilities, construction companies, and other industrial facilities might use a compressed air tool for a variety of reasons. A compressed air tool is often lighter in weight than the electric version of the same tool, allowing workers to use the tool more comfortably and for longer periods of time. Similarly, a compressed air tool can be more powerful than an electric tool without consuming as much energy. Compressed air tools can also save time, especially
