PAT SPITFIRE SYSTEM
Our SPITFIRE P370 and P560 systems are powder actuated mechanical tools, used to drive fasteners into concrete or steel using an indirect firing system, to increase safety while using the tool. With different cartridges offering different levels of firepower, these PAT systems can be used for fixing head track with more than 20mm deflection, formwork stoppers, timber sole plates, steel grid/grating/mesh floors, rigid insulation, SFS and much more. With an automatic piston return which promises a higher install rate, power adjustment for fixes into varying strengths of substrate and energy absorbing dampners to reduce recoil and HAV risks, this tool offers a solution to those jobs that require a little bit more punch. The maintenance of this tool can easily be done on site too, as it benefits from a universal piston, and has no battery to slow you down. For more information click here to visit our website.
