Powder Actuated Tools for Your Project Needs

Powder actuated tools are devices that can drive specialized fasteners into hard materials, such as concrete and some types of metal. These tools draw power from small cartridges, or loads, that contain a chemical propellant. A firing pin in the tool strikes the load, creating an explosive force that drives a fastener.


Powder actuated tools can be useful on a jobsite or in some heavy do-it-yourself projects, such as fastening studs to a poured concrete wall or securing the bottom plate of a wall to a slab. Find powder actuated nail guns and other varieties of these heavy-duty tools, as well as the powder actuated fasteners they use, when you shop with us at Lowe’s.


As with all tools, follow the manufacturer’s instructions and safety precautions when you operate any type of powder actuated tool. Also, be sure to wear appropriate safety gear, such as eye and hearing protection. Never point one at a person or animal, whether the tool is loaded or not. For jobsite use, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires prospective users to earn certification for a power actuated tool before using it.


Frequently Asked Questions


Q: What’s a powder actuated tool used for? 

A: Powder actuated tools drive fasteners into hard materials. You might find this type of tool on construction sites, where workers commonly use powder actuated tools to join concrete slabs together or to fasten wood and poured concrete together.


Q: What are some examples of powder actuated tools? 

A: Examples of powder actuated tools include semi-automatic, trigger-activated tools that can drive multiple fasteners without reloading and trigger- or hammer-activated tools that drive a single fastener before reloading. Some powder actuated tools look similar to small drills. Familiarize yourself with how these different types of tools work so you can choose the right type and model for your specific needs at home or on the jobsite.


Once you purchase powder actuated tools for your home and work projects, don’t forget to organize them so they’re available when you need them. See our guide on different ways to organize your tools to find helpful advice on keeping your tools neat and tidy.
