T3ss Gas Powered Tool Gas Technology Single Pin Gas Tool Fuel Injection Cross Over Technology /SUGGESTED SPECIFICATIONS Crossing Over from Powder to Gas THE PREMIER FASTENING SYSTEM FOR THE ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR Ramset is serious when it comes to driving job speed by creating the T3SS the single shot tool that will help move/contractors from powder to gas. Easy battery loading. Battery rest position allows you to turn off the tool without fully removing the battery. ADVANTAGES Sets the standard for single-shot applications 5 times faster than traditional drill and anchor methods Replaces the need for tools like the DX35 Reduced operator fatigue The T3SS provides the benefits of shooting a gas tool, including reduced installation time and operator fatigue for the contractor who normally shoots a muzzle loaded powder tool. To make the T3SS the most versatile gas tool in the industry, Ramset uses the newly developed Cross Over technology that allows users to change out nosepieces to accommodate any fastening need. From metal-to-concrete, hard concrete or steel, pan deck, block and just about surface you can think of the T3SS works for you. Reduced installation costs up to 75% Quiet enough to work in tenant occupied buildings Removable rear foot 2 Year Warranty (6 months on wearable parts). Versatile! Safe! Fast! Quiet! Safety Managers recommend the T3 because there s no licensing required. Lower Recoil Reduces Operator Fatigue Quieter than Drilling & Anchoring or Powder Eliminates Exposure to Concrete Dust (Silicosis) No more fines for unspent loads on the jobsite.
