FASTENING APPLICATIONS
Your Ramset tool can be used for a wide
range of fastening needs in a variety of
base materials. Reading and follow these
important fastening guidelines will help you
get the best results from your tool, fasteners,
and powder loads, as well as help you
perform these fastening operations safely
and effectively.
Powder actuated fastenings are permanent
fastening so attempting to remove a fastener
from concrete or steel may result in serious
injury.
Fastening to Concrete
When fastening into concrete, always maintain
a minimum spacing of 3” between fastenings
and 3” from any free edge. Concrete thickness
should be at least three times the intended
penetration depth into the concrete. The
primary exception to the 3” edge distance
can occur in a sill plate application where,
by necessity, the edge distance is reduced.
Driving fasteners too close to an edge or too
close to each other can cause the concrete
edge to fail or fasteners to fly free.
Fastening to Concrete Block
or to Masonry Walls
While this application is not recommended,
when used, it is necessary to take care to
observe a 3” edge distance to avoid cracking
the block and over penetration of the fastener
to avoid loss of holding value. Fastening
may be made into the horizontal joint but
not into the vertical joint.
Fastening to Steel
Your Ramset tool can be used for fastening
on the flat surfaces of structural steel.
When fastening into steel, always maintain
a minimum spacing of 1-1/2” between
fastenings and 1/2” from any edge.
