What Is Pneumatic Fastening?

Pneumatic fastening is a compressed air–driven method used to fasten directly into structural steel and concrete with controlled force and consistent penetration depth. Unlike powder-actuated systems, pneumatic fastening relies on regulated air pressure rather than combustion, providing improved repeatability and operational control.

Pneutek’s Fastening Systems represent the world’s only pneumatically driven forced entry fastening technology engineered exclusively for high-performance applications.
