Versatility is the name of the game when working with air tools. By definition, air tools are any piece driven by air. As opposed to electric tools, which are motor-driven, pneumatic tools are driven by compressed air. Air power has been a growing trend with a wide assortment of tools built under this purpose. It is a bona fide replacement to electric tools and more people are switching over to air to power their appliances and devices. Let's take a look at the multitude of advantages air tools have over electric tools.
To start, pneumatic tools do not require a motor to operate like electric powered tools do. Instead, they use air compressors, mechanical devices that take in air and boosts up its pressure by switching from larger volumes to lower volumes. This exerts plenty of packed punch powering your airbrush. Air compressor motors are responsible for turning electrical energy into kinetic energy. In addition, pneumatic tools are adept at producing more torque and generating higher revolutions per minute, meaning more efficiency on the task required. In other words, a small airbrush can accomplish more power than an electric tool like a rotary drill.
Pneumatic Tools often come in small sizes, which make them easier to maneuver and work with in the workshop. Electric power tools clog up a lot of space, whilst air tools consume their own little spot in the corner. Check out the air tool drills at Boss Tools. Our heavy-duty right angle/straight air drills, both standard and industrial, barely crack the 5 lbs. mark. Their soft rubber grips and side handles means better maneuvering and usage of the machine. The broad range of different uses pneumatic tools encompass is varied. You have blowguns, polishers, screwdrivers, grinding tools, hammers, riveting tools, caulking guns, drills - the list goes on and on.
Another excellent benefit of pneumatic tools over electric tools is their value. 80% of the money shelled out on air tools will go directly to the air compressor fund. By purchasing a durable and steady air compressor to power your air tools, the only thing left is to buy air tools, which are fairly inexpensive compared to electrical tools. Electrical tools come in all shapes and sizes. You have plenty of buffers, sanders, and other appliances that burn out in the blink of an eye. However, air tools require one energy/power source that works around the clock generating air energy. Don't forget - air tools break down less than electrical tools and are more likely to last longer. They have less moving parts, making a dropped tool unlikely to break into seventeen pieces flying all over the place.
The third advantage of air tools is its A+ versatility features. Remember, air tools spearhead every project from basic to advanced in your home, like drilling holes into your plywood piece, inflating air into your $900 inflatable mattress, and spray-painting your motorcycle. Since different air tools are required for different things, having one sole power source is an excellent proposition. Many electrical motors die out and require a replacement. Remember, pneumatic tools are easy to use, generate more power and torque, and have more value than electric tools.
Cordless Drills
Cordless drills speak volumes over the issue of convenience in today's workshop. Oftentimes, cords snake their way around the shop floor creating a potential hazards and plenty of clutter in addition to overturned bits and pieces on the worktable. Cordless drills speak differently. Some enthusiasts might go out and refuse to sing praises about cordless features in any tool. They might point out the "short life" of a battery and opt for a consistent 120 volts of electrical power through a cord. Their vision is wrong. Cordless drills can send electric drills to shame! The industry has come up with a new brand of battery (nickel-metal hydride) that works a lot more than regular batteries.
Of course, theprice range of cordless drills can vary from $50 to $450 dollars, rated from standard to industrial. At Boss Tools, we have a hefty selection of cordless drills ranging from impact wrenches to drill/driver hybrids. In addition, we sell rechargeable batteries so you will never have to run out of power, leaving your work uninterrupted. What is your personal criterion in selecting the right cordless drill? Do you want a keyed or keyless chuck? For the neophytes, a keyed chuck is a mechanism that tightens the jaws to the tip, leaving the bit secured. It is the surface area on the drill you rotate to make the bit tighter. What about grip handle? The grip handle is paramount in maneuvering your cordless drill, helping distribute proper weight on it to deliver the most pull and torque on the material. Remember, grip handles also determine how well you can work with a one handed operation so if this is important to you, opt for a pistol handle.
A little on thedust collector: ever find your workshop filthy with dust strewn all over your worktables? Settle that by heading over to Boss Tools and purchasing our dust collector by TJL Industrial. Riding on wheels and 66 lbs., it is easy to pull and tug around the workshop. If you're literally swimming in wood shavings, dust collectors are the perfect solution. In addition, dust collectors help offset the health risks involved with inhaling wood dust that can cause breathing problems and irritation. Wood dust does not have to touch the ground to avoid being a health hazard. Besides, making precision cuts and pinpoint measurements cannot be accomplished without dust collectors to clean the dust in the air and floor. Painting can also be tarnished with the presence of dust as well, as it settles on the finish and ruins it. Make sure purchasing a dust collector is at the top of your list. Dust collectors had a hygienic dimension to the workshop and this separates the novices from the veterans.
