FASTENER FUNCTIONING
Prior to learning the safe operating procedures for this tool, it
is important to understand how a powder actuated fastener
works. A powder actuated fastener is considered to be a direct
drive or forced entry type of fastener because it is driven directly
into the base material. The driving action causes tremendous
forces to be applied to the fastener. Powers powder actuated
fasteners are specially designed and manufactured using an
austempering process to withstand the forces imposed during the
driving operation. Only fasteners manufactured or supplied by
Powers Fasteners should be used in this tool.
FUNCTIONING IN CONCRETE
The performance of a powder actuated
fastener when installed into concrete or
masonry base materials is based on the
following factors:
1. Strength of the base material
2. Hardness and concentration of the aggregate
3. Shank diameter of the fastener
4. Depth of embedment into the base material
5. Fastener spacing and edge distance
n addition to these factors, installation tool accessories such
as a stop spall which reduces the tendency of the concrete
surface to spall during the driving action can increase the
performance of the fastener.
When a powder actuated fastener is driven into concrete, it
displaces the volume of concrete around the embedded area of
the fastener shank. As this occurs, the concrete directly
surrounding the fastener is compressed and in turn presses back
against the shank of the fastener. Additionally, the driving action
generates heat which causes particles within the concrete to
fuse to the shank of the fastener. This combination of
compression and fusion
holds the fastener in the concrete base material. A similar action
occurs when fastening into block masonry.
Generally, the performance of the fastener in a given
concrete strength will increase with greater embedment depths
in a certain range. Depending on the fastener style and base
material strength, embedment depths range from 5/8" to 1-
1/2". For depths greater than this range, there is the possibility
of the fastener bending or fishhooking which may decrease
expected load capacities and create a safety hazard.
During the driving action, some
localized surface spalling of the concrete
may occur. Normally, this is a surface effect
which does not effect the performance of
the fastener. However, it may pose an
aesthetic problem for exposed applications
where a fixture is not used. n cases such
as this, two methods can be used to
improve the appearance of the fastening.
1. Another method used is to drive the
fastener through a steel washer to improve
the appearance of the application.
2. A stop spall adapter mounted on the
powder actuated tool can help to reduce surface spalling.
FUNCTIONING IN STEEL
The load performance of a powder
actuated fastener when installed into steel
base materials is based on the following
factors:
1. Thickness of the steel
2. Tensile strength of the steel
3. Shank diameter of the fastener
4. Depth of point penetration through the steel
5. Fastener spacing and edge distance.
When a powder actuated fastener is driven into steel, it
displaces the steel laterally 360˚ around the shank of the fastener.
Since steel is an elastic material, it presses back against the shank
of the fastener to hold it in place. As the diameter of the fastener
shank is increased, the load capacity obtained will generally
increase provided the steel thickness is sufficient to accept the
fastener. To further increase fastener performance in steel, some
fasteners have a knurled shank which allows the steel to form a
key lock into the grooves to provide higher capacities than those
obtained with a smooth shank. For optimum performance, the
fastener point should completely penetrate the steel. Normally, a
minimum of 1/4" is allowed for the point length. An increase in
performance can be expected until the fastener no longer
completely penetrates through the steel. At this point, the elastic
properties of the steel cause a compression force to be developed
at an angle against the fastener point which reduces load
capacity. n thicker steel base materials, adequate load capacities
may be obtained for applications in which the point of the
fastener does not fully penetrate the steel. Job site performance
tests are recommended.
Fasteners should not be used in areas that have been welded
