Using compressed air to drive tools has many advantages. As this air drill is driven by air pressure it can provide all the torque of a power screwdriver, but as it doesn't require as many electric or battery components it is cheaper, more robust and easier to maintain. Also, as it is not powered by electricity, it is arguably safer. It's only disadvantage is that it needs to be attached to a pneumatic system, and is so less portable than, for example, a battery-powered electric screwdriver. This air tool screwdriver might commonly be used where ever speed and uniformity are a concern, such as;

• High volume assembly
• Automotive industry
• Repair and maintenance
