Powder-Actuated Fastening Safety Principles

Powder-Actuated Fastening Safety Principles Before operating any Simpson Strong-Tie Anchor Systems® gas or powder-actuated tool, you must thoroughly read and understand the Operators Manual so that you fully understand the safety guidelines of the tool. You must be trained by an authorized instructor regarding the operation of the tool. Simpson Strong-Tie highly recommends that you read and fully understand the safety guidelines of the tool you use.

The test and Operator's Manual are included with each tool kit and extra copies can be obtained by contacting Simpson Strong-Tie.

PAT Application Guide — General Notes

  1. Average pin embedment into concrete is 19–32mm.
  2. To determine pin length for concrete: add fixture thickness and embedment depths.
  3. To determine pin length for steel applications: add fixture thickness plus steel thickness plus 3mm. Getting the point to pass through steel 3 mm maximises holding strength.
  4. When selecting a load power level, it is recommended to make a test fastening with the lowest power level. If the powder load does not set the fastener, try the next highest load, and so on, until the fastener is properly set.
