Gas Technology - How it works
With its own internal combustion engine, Ramset™ Gas Technology fastens cable management, wiring accessories and partitioning track much faster than any other system!
At the heart of Ramset™ Gas Technology is the patented linear internal combustion engine. With its steel piston rings and precision-machined combustion chamber, Ramset™ Gas Technology drives fasteners all day long, week after week, year after year.

How to select a Ramset™ Drive Pin to directly fasten an object to STEEL
Fixing to concreteAs the fixing enters the concrete, extreme pressure and heat are created. This creates a bond that provides high loading strength in concrete.
Edge distanceDo not fix closer than 75mm from the edge of concrete. If the concrete cracks, the fixing may not hold.
Recommended minimum fixing spacingSetting fixings too close together can cause the concrete to crack. The recommended minimum distance between fixings is 50mm. Never attempt a fixing application too close to another fixing as this could affect the previously inserted fixing’s embedment.
Concrete thicknessIt is important that the concrete be at least three times as thick as the fixing penetration. If the concrete is too thin, the compressive forces forming at the fixing’s point can cause the free face of the concrete to break away. This creates a dangerous condition from flying concrete and / or the fixing and also results in a reduction of fastener holding power.
How to select a Ramset™ Drive Pin to directly fasten an object to CONCRETE
Fixing to steelThe resilience of steel provides a clamping effect to the fixing. This combined with the tremendous heat that is created, provides a welding and clamping effect to give maximum holding power.
Edge distanceThe recommended edge distance for a fixing to the edge of steel is 13mm. Never fire the tool within 13mm of the edge of a steel base material because the steel may bend or break off, allowing the fixing to ricochet.
Recommended minimum fastener spacingThe recommended minimum distance between fixings is 25mm. Never attempt a fixing application too close to another fixing as this could affect the previously installed fixing’s embedment.
Steel thicknessDo not fasten into steel base material thinner than the fastener shank diameter. Holding power may be reduced and the fastener may be overdriven.
As a guide when:Fixing into steel - min. steel thickness = 3mm(Less with specialist pins contact Ramset™ for further details)

Fastening PrinciplesGas Technology Systems
Fastening Principles
Adjusting PenetrationPenetration is adjusted by slackening the two screws (A) on the upper part of the barrel using the allen key provided and moving them backwards or forwards (4mm) in the recess on plate (B).
The adjustment range is 4mm. Intermediate adjustments between maximum and minimum are possible.
For best fixing results, check the adjustment position before and during work.
Pulsa™ Technology - TrakMaster™, InsulFast GT™ & CableMaster™ Only
As gases are affected by temperature, to generate exactly the same power in a gas technology tool the fuel injector must vary the amount of gas delivered to the combustion chamber. With traditional mechanical fuel delivery systems as found in the TrakFast™ tool this variation is not possible and differences in power are evident at very low (i.e. -5°C) or high temperatures.
However, the TrakMaster™, InsulFast™ GT and CableMaster™ tools use PULSA™ technology which employs temperature dependent Electronic Fuel Injection (E.F.I.) to accurately inject the exact amount of gas that the tool requires, no matter what the ambient temperature is. The tool actually detects what the ambient temperature is and calculates the amount of gas to release from the fuel cell. This ‘smart’ technology ensures that the tool delivers the right amount of power…. every time!
Adjusting Fastener Penetration – Recommended for use with TrakMaster™ Only
All Ramset™ Gas Technology tools automatically adjust their power to suit the supporting material. These gas technology tools can adjust their power up to a maximum impact energy that is determined by the capability of each tool model. (This is one of the main differences between Ramset™ Gas Technology tools and Powder Actuated tools).
Even though Ramset™ Gas Technology tools automatically adjust their power, certain applications may require the fastener to penetrate deeper into the base material or penetrate less.
Ramset™ TrakMaster™ and CableMaster™ tools are designed with a feature that allows adjustment of the fastener penetration to be performed. This adjustment is dependent both on the type and hardness of the base material and on the object being fixed. The adjustment does not affect the impact energy that is supplied to the fastener.
To ensure successful fixing of CableMaster™ clips (EClip™ etc.) it is recommended that the CableMaster™ tool is set to the minimum drive position. Failure to do so could result in cracking or breaking of accessories and PVC trunking. The CableMaster™ is supplied adjusted to this position and it is recommended that the tool be left in the minimum drive position and different pins be selcted to achieve different embedments.

How to select a Ramset™ Drive Pin to directly fasten an object to STEEL
Powder Actuated Technology - How it works
Fixing to concreteAs the fixing enters the concrete, extreme pressure and heat are created. This creates a bond that provides high loading strength in concrete.
Edge distanceDo not fix closer than 75mm from the edge of concrete. If the concrete cracks, the fixing may not hold.
Recommended minimum fixing spacingSetting fixings too close together can cause the concrete to crack. The recommended minimum distance between fixings is 75mm. Never attempt a fixing application too close to another fixing as this could affect the previously inserted fixing’s embedment.
Concrete thicknessIt is important that the concrete be at least three times as thick as the fixing penetration. If the concrete is too thin, the compressive forces forming at the fixing’s point can cause the free face of the concrete to break away. This creates a dangerous condition from flying concrete and / or the fixing and also results in a reduction of fastener holding power.
How to select a Ramset™ Drive Pin to directly fasten an object to CONCRETE
Fixing to steelThe resilience of steel provides a clamping effect to the fixing. This combined with the tremendous heat that is created, provides a welding and clamping effect to give maximum holding power.
Edge distanceThe recommended edge distance for a fixing to the edge of steel is 13mm. Never fire the tool within 13mm of the edge of a steel base material because the steel may bend or break off, allowing the fixing to ricochet.
Recommended minimum fastener spacingThe recommended minimum distance between fixings is 25mm. Never attempt a fixing application too close to another fixing as this could affect the previously installed fixing’s embedment.
Steel thicknessDo not fasten into steel base material thinner than the fastener shank diameter. Holding power may be reduced and the fastener may be overdriven.
As a guide when:• Fixing into steel - min. steel thickness = 4mm
Ramset™ Powder Actuated Technology uses a captive piston to transfer the energy from the power load to the fastener. In this way the majority of any excess energy, which is produced by the power load, is absorbed within the tool by the buffer.Ramset™ Powder Actuated tools are powerful and reliable which allows them to fasten to steel, concrete and masonry year after year.

Fastener Selection and Correct SettingThe correct selection and setting of Powder Actuated Fasteners is critical with all tools to ensure a secure fixing and long tool life.
The correct setting of the fastener should be as detailed in the diagrams to avoid excessive overdrive and a secure fix.
Where possible, a washer (Part No: RCD16F) or a washered fastener should be used. (Application permitting, to reduce overdrive and produce maximum clamping force). Repeated excessive overdrive will result in damage and short life of tool parts.
