Key Features
Lightweight and comfortable
Air screwdrivers are designed with compact, ergonomic bodies that feel natural in your hand. Because they run on compressed air rather than a heavy electric motor, they’re easier to manoeuvre, helping reduce fatigue during repetitive tasks.
Precise torque and reversible control
These tools let you control torque accurately and include a forward/reverse switch for quick changes in direction. This makes them perfect for assembly, sheet metal work, or any job that demands consistent fastening.
Durable and low‑maintenance
With fewer internal components than electric equivalents, pneumatic screwdrivers are built to last. While they still need a clean, dry air supply and occasional lubrication, their simple mechanical design ensures reliable performance over time.
Compact and versatile
Many models are small enough to reach into tight spaces, making them ideal for panels, machine assemblies, or confined workshop areas. Quick-change bits on select models also save time during repetitive work.

FAQs
What air supply do I need for an air screwdriver?
Air screwdrivers work best with a clean, dry air supply, usually around 80–90 psi. Make sure to check the specific requirements for your model, as they can vary slightly.
How do air screwdrivers work?
These tools use compressed air to power a small motor that turns the screw. The built-in clutch and gears help control the torque, so you can drive screws smoothly and accurately without stripping them.
What maintenance is needed for an air screwdriver?
To keep an air screwdriver in good shape, regularly check the hoses and connections, make sure the air is clean and dry, and lubricate the tool if recommended. Always disconnect the air supply before cleaning or changing bits.
Are air screwdrivers safe to use?
Yes, as long as you follow some basic precautions. Wear eye and ear protection, keep a firm grip on the tool, and avoid loose clothing. Never carry it by the air hose and make sure your workspace is clear.
