Hilti has introduced its new battery-actuated BX 3-A22 02 direct fastening tool. Powered by a brushless motor and Hilti’s standard 22V battery, its designed for drywall contractors’ use in fastening interior track to concrete and steel, and for fastening waterproofing membrane to concrete.
The Hilti BX 3-A22 02 uses “spring-belt” technology to store and transmit energy, and to provide speed and productivity comparable to propellant- and powder-actuated tools — without the hassle of gas cans or cartridge disposal. A lower recoil compared to gas-actuated tools helps reduce operator fatigue. And, the “spring-belt” technology does not cause the same wear and tear on the piston as flywheel technology does, resulting in longer tool life.
