Companion Tools

Air Compressor

Prepare Before Use

  • Load your fasteners into the tray before connecting to air pressure

  • Be aware, these tools are pressurized, and puffs of air accompanied by sudden noises can be alarming. Experiment with the tool on scrap wood to familiarize yourself with these sensations.

Tool Tips

  • The tool will not fire unless it is in contact with your work surface. This is to avoid launching fasteners under high pressure into the air. Press the tip of the tool firmly to the material to disengage the safety feature.

  • Align your fastener correctly using the markings on the tool tip, as the firing point will be covered by the tool during use.

Fastener Guide

Thickness or Gauge

Gauge is the measure of your metal fastener’s thickness. Different gauges are recommended for different uses. Higher gauge equals thinner material.

  • 23-gauge – For small painted or stained moldings (typically used to hold materials together while adhesive sets or cures)

  • 21-gauge – For small painted or stained moldings and medium to small casings or chair rail (provides similar appearance to 23 gauge with 80% holding power of an 18 gauge)

  • 18-gauge – For medium to small casings, chair rail or low-profile crown molding

  • 16-gauge – For the outer nail on casing (through drywall) and for base trim or other large trim

  • 15-gauge – For the outer nail on casing (through drywall) and for base trim or other large trim , and sturdy install of door jambs, particularly heavy, solid-core doors.
