Product description

Contractors who regularly line large fittings and straight duct will find the convenience of the Gripnail Glider speeds their assembly and reduces their fabrication costs. The impact head travels a full 60 inches for lining 5-foot wide duct. The head is moved with a multi-position extension arm and glides on specially designed bearings. A Gripnail is set each time the operator squeezes the pistol grip’s trigger. The frame is cut out at either end of the anvil to accommodate flanged duct. The glider may also be operated by the foot pedal.

Gripnail machines were first introduced to the HVAC industry in 1970 and have proven their reliability in the most severe duct manufacturing environments. The Gripnail Glider 665 AFC brings this reliability to a new level. All sensors are non-contact and improvements have been made to the feed and drive systems. Critical components are sealed and not affected by dirt, airborne particles, temperature or humidity. They have been combined with the same rugged components that been proven over the last 35 years of machinery manufacturing; Our own drive cylinders, made from special alloys to withstand continuous pounding, nail tracks made of stainless steel for greater wear resistance and vibrator bowls that run for decades. This is by far the simplest and most reliable Gripnail machine ever built.

Moving Head

Speeds productions

Flange Cutouts

Permit continuous lining of flat or L section flanged duct.

Fast

Gripnails fasten instantly and this machine will stay ahead of the operator.

New Improved Reliability

The Gripnail Glider 665 AFC uses a PLC (Programmable Logic Control) and non-contact proximity sensors in place of pneumatic valves and mechanical actuators.

Easy To Operate

Just fill the feeder bowl with Gripnails, set the air pressure and step on the foot pedal. Drive up to 1,000 fasteners before refilling.

Standard 5 Foot Throat

Fastens large duct sections, reducing material handling.

Front Mounted Component Cabinet

Affords easy access for service needs.

Visual Load Cycle

Quickly confirms electronic functions.

Proprietary Drive Cylinders

Made from special alloys to withstand continuous pounding.

NEMA 12-Rated Electrical Cabinet

Protects electrical component to minimize machine down-time.

Lightweight Foot Pedal
