These fasteners, typically constructed from metal wire, are designed with a 3/8-inch wide top section before the legs extend downwards. They are employed within pneumatic tools to secure materials together. For example, they are utilized in upholstery, woodworking, and various construction applications to fasten fabric, wood, or other substrates.
The dimensional specification offers several advantages. The crown width provides a broad holding surface, distributing force across the material to prevent tearing or damage. The use of these fasteners with a pneumatic delivery system increases efficiency and speed, facilitating rapid and consistent fastening across a project. Historically, this type of fastening method evolved from manual stapling to mechanized processes, enhancing productivity in numerous industries.
