• Global Reach: Trusted by professionals worldwide, with customers across Europe, North America, Asia, and Oceania.
• Customer Satisfaction: Praised for its reliability, ease of use, and the quality of finish it provides.

Applications

• Brickwork: Ideal for repointing and new construction projects.
• Stonework: Suitable for various stone masonry applications.
• Paving: Efficiently fills joints in paving slabs and cobblestones.
• Brick Slips: Perfect for cladding and decorative brick slip installations.

Essential Requirements for the Pnu-Point Tool

The Pnu-Point pointing tool is powered by compressed air. The recommended minimum compressor specifications are:

• 1 KW (1½ HP) motor
• 20-litre (5-gallon) air storage tank, maintaining steady air pressure and running approximately 1 minute in 5, within most compressors’ duty cycles for cool and extended operation
• Free air delivery of 0.15 m³/min (5 cu ft/min)

The compressor must be regulatable down to 2 bar (30 PSI). The Pnu-Point tool comes standard with a 1/4 inch BSP PCI quick-release fitting, with other fittings available upon request.

A compressor meeting these specifications will operate efficiently, ensuring a quiet environment and prolonged tool life.
