About Power Tools
Power tools include a wide range of devices for fabrication, assembly, construction, and repair. They are usually motor-driven and designated as electrical, battery-powered, hydraulic, or pneumatic. Most power tools are constructed for long service under heavy use. Pneumatic power tools include drills, fastening tools, impact tools, material removal tools, reciprocating saws, and torque wrenches. By design, a torque wrench sets the torque or rotational force applied to a nut or bolt. Cordless power tools run on 7.2, 9.6, 12, 14.4, 18, 19.6, or 24-volt batteries. Many are lightweight. Portable power tools can be carried to a job and may be hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical (corded), or battery-operated (cordless).
