air tool

Garage compressor attachment

An air tool is a handheld device powered by compressed air rather than electricity or batteries.

Common examples include pneumatic drills, impact wrenches, nail guns, and spray painters.

Air tools are favored in automotive shops and construction for their power-to-weight ratio and durability: The mechanic grabbed an air tool to remove the lug nuts.
