Gorrugated Joint Fastener
A corrugated joint fastener tool is new from Senco Products.
The air-powered SC2 fastener is highly versatile, &iving three lengths of Sencor fasteners to produce a wide assortment of wooden joints: butt joints in cabinet and furniture frames, door and window sash, millwork, picture frames, truss construction, boxes and pallet stringer repair.
It consistently drives fasteners into even hard and dense woods with fewer assembly operations and works equally well in softwoods, where other types of clamp-style fasteners often fail. Once driven into the material, the fasteners reportedly provide twice the joint strength of ordinary connectors, so fewer fasteners are needed, often without gluing, milling, doweling, screwing and clamping. A full l" crown ensures quick fastener placement and maximum joint strength.

The tool's excellent balance and light weight reduce operator fatigue.

The safety is said to prevent the tool from firing unless it is in coniact with the work surface.
