Screwdriver - a tool for professionals

When laying gipsokartonnyh sheets, in the case of large amounts of work, it is often possible to see how professionals, without turning off the screwdriver, without a break wrap around several dozen screws. Looking closely, you can see that they are fed to a rotating bit, filled with a special plastic holder. This tape screwdriver at work is something like a machine gun. The feeder in it works in a similar way.

Appointment

Such a tool can be safely attributed to professional equipment, after all, when doing ordinary work, it fits little and is designed for frequently repeating, same-type operations. At a cost, the belt screwdriver surpasses the household models similar in characteristics. And it's not just a special feed mechanism. Apparatuses are manufactured with an increased safety factor because their purpose is large volumes.

You can even work with such an assembly. It is not necessary to get a new screw each time, put it on the tip bits, hold and correct it for the accuracy of the direction. Thanks to the equipped tape, one hand is released. It is possible to hold the sheet securely until a moment when several screws can quickly fix it to the guide planes.

Features

A belt screwdriver can be structurally made with a permanently installed self-tapping mechanism. Such an aggregate can not be used without a loaded tape. Calculation of manufacturers of such equipment is understandable - for each type of work should be your tool.

Another option is a removable attachment for a conventional screwdriver. Without it, the unit can be used in manual piece-filling mode for each screw. To some extent, it is profitable. Apparatus from a professional easily turns into a universal tool by quickly removing the "muzzle" device. If necessary, it can be used for serial operation with screws of standard size, as well as manually install without a nozzle any other (different in length, thickness of the base, diameter of the cap), but suitable for slots self-tapping screws.

Benefits

The volume of the tape is 50 screws. This is the calculated amount for securely fixing the standard drywall sheet in any position. Using a tape screwdriver, you can confidently proceed with the installation. The tool has good ergonomics: a comfortable handle allows you to work for a long time, and you quickly get used to its grip.

Attachments for hanging on the strap allows you to quickly release your hands and at the same time the tool is always at hand. The control buttons are conveniently located. The nose of the feeding tape of the head is narrower, which makes it possible to put corner fasteners in close proximity to the wall.

A cordless belt screwdriver gives you even more freedom of action. There is no need to control the length of the carrying, worry that you can trip over the network wire. This is especially important when working with construction forests at high altitude. However, you will have to pay extra for mobility, because battery models are more expensive.

Modifications

Leading manufacturers of screwdrivers, as a rule, in a separate direction represent a line of professional tools. Makita, Metabo, Dewalt, Bosh are the companies whose products can be safely recommended for responsible work. Their tape screwdrivers work with self-tapping screws 25 - 55 mm. Senco Duraspin DS 275 and Makita BFR 750 RFE are units that are able to wrap screws up to 75 mm in ribbon mode.

All models have a dive screw cap adjustment. There is the possibility of a reverse stroke. And there is no need to manually fill the incorrectly screwed screw. Adjusting the engine speed allows you to accurately adjust to the operating mode. The filling mechanism is as simple as possible. When working at different angles, the cassette tape does not twist.

Manufacturers experiment with the shape of the handle, trying to balance the tool for professional work. Belt screwdriver Bosch GSR 6-45 with a nozzle has a familiar form for "household" models. With a tool with a staple D-shaped handle, the center of gravity is shifted, which makes it possible to perfectly balance the unit and maintain the natural position of the hand of the drywall during operation.
