Tools, hand tools and power tools
Hand tools and power tools are used on jobsites and in production facilities
to measure, cut, fasten, and form materials. Hand tools include clamps, cutting tools, measuring
tools, hammers, screwdrivers, and wrenches. They provide precise control and are used for tasks
where power tools are cumbersome or where high amounts of force are not required. Power tools
include cordless, corded, hydraulic, and air-powered drills, drivers, impact wrenches, saws, and
finishing tools. They are used for tasks that are repeated (such as driving nails in sheetrock)
or where high force and speed are required. Measuring and layout tools ensure workpieces are cut
to the correct length and angle. Sockets and bits are used with wrenches, screwdrivers, and
drills to create holes and drive fasteners. Tool tethers, balancers, and retractors secure tools
to keep them close at hand when needed and help prevent injuries caused by dropped tools. Tool
storage keeps tools secure and organized for quick access
