What are the advantages of air-powered tools over traditional electric power tools?

• Pneumatic tools are usually more lightweight and easier to manipulate


• Air tools are safer to use in a wider range of conditions, and therefore more versatile


• Pneumatic tools are often able to offer considerably more punch and torque than electrical versions on tougher jobs, especially compared to cordless electric varieties


• Air tools tend to feature far simpler design mechanics than electric power equivalents, for enhanced user-friendliness


• Pneumatic tools are often more reliable in long-term use, with very low malfunction rates for common electrical tool problems such as overheating or short circuiting


• Fewer moving parts usually means longer life and less maintenance required


• Compressed air is an extremely reliable source of clean, dry power in a wide range of environments and application types.


• Compressed air is easy to move between many different locations and types of work sites, including hazardous or underground locations, damp or wet conditions, and around combustible materials.


• Air tools are often cheaper to buy than electric versions, and while the overall cost of setting up a pneumatic system to run them will inevitably add some initial expense, their lower power draw and reduced need for frequent maintenance/parts replacement makes them considerably more economical in the long-run.
