The Ramset T3SS Single Shot Tool
The Ramset T3SS tool is an alternative to powder actuated tools when fastening into masonry materials. While powder actuated tools have been the tool of choice for years when fastening into concrete, the T3SS has some advantages, especially for the data comm/security, electrical and mechanical trades. Let’s take a look at the tool.


A variety of assemblies are available for the Ramset T3SS including ceiling clips, pre tied ceiling clips, tie strap mounts, rod hangers, a variety of EMT clips and clamps, and 1/4″ studs. Several pins are available as well including a washer pin that works well for fastening duct work straps to the deck. A magnetic probe for the pins with clamps is also available for the tool.
While initial cost of the Ramset T3SS tool may be higher than a standard powder actuated tool, the tool really does solve a few problems that you will run into on the jobsite. The time proven technology from Ramset, makes the T3SS a tool that you will want to have in your fleet or at least know about when the challenge arises.
