Electrical and Mechanical Fastening System PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
SECTION CONTENTS
The Stick-E fastening system uses Trak-It gas technology with specially designed accessories for fastening applications encountered by electricians and mechanical contractors. The Stick-E fastening system eliminates drilling and anchoring by offering the ability to fasten directly through the fixture with the magazine pins and accessories. Operation of a gas powered fastening system does not require special safety training or licensing.
