POWDER TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION
ONLINE POWDER TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION

To protect the operator and assure safety on the jobsite, OSHA and ANSI require all powder actuated tool users to be trained
and certified for the tool that will be used. Ramset enables you to receive training thrrough our website training program.
This approach combines interactive web-based training techniques and online testing with feedback during the test.
The course consists of approximately 30 pages of usage, safety, and troubleshooting material. Upon completion of this
brief course, you will immediately take an online exam. With successful completion of the exam, you then print a Ramset
certification card.
At the end of the course, you are also given the ability to download individual tool manuals.
To take the course, and be certified to operate a Ramset powder actuated tool:
• Go to www.Ramset.com
• Find the heading called Get Your License
• Click P.A.T. Licensing
• Click Begin Operator Course (choose English / Spanish / French)
• When course is complete, take the test
• After passing the test, download and print your certificate
• Place the certificate in your wallet

LEED CREDITS
What is LEED?
The purpose of Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is to construct buildings in an energy efficient manner and reduce the
buildings’ energy consumption. As a result, these buildings can help conserve non-renewable energy resources; decrease dependence on foreign
oil; and lower greenhouse gas emissions.
Ramset LEED Credit MR 5.1

MR 5.1 was developed with the intent to increase demand for building materials and products that are extracted and manufactured within the
region, thereby supporting the use of indigenous resources and reducing the environmental impact resulting from transportation.
Ramset fasteners may meet the requirements for LEED MR 5.1 if your project falls within 500 miles of our manufacturing facilities.
How to calculate LEED MR 5.1

LEED MR Credit 5.1 is calculated on a 500 mile radius from/
to distribution points. Use Google Maps to calculate the
distance to your project from:

RECYCLING
Ramset Recycles
Ramset has always recognized the value of utilizing recycled materials
where available.
The raw material sourced for the manufacture of Ramset pins contains approximately 10-20% mill
scrap when it is converted to wire material. The plastic and casing material in our loads typically
consists of 10% recycled material.
Our packaging also contains post-consumer recycled material. The paper board (inner cartons)
containers are typically made from 40% recycled material; corrugated cartons typically contain 30-
35% recycled material.

Holding power will be reduced and the fastener may be over-driven, creating a dangerous
situation to the operator or bystanders due to a free-flying fastener.
HOW TO SELECT A POWDER ACTUATED FASTENER

• DRIVE PINS are used to directly fasten an object (permanent installation).
• THREADED STUDS are used where the object fastened is to be removed or where shimming is required. The following shows how to determine shank and thread length. Required
penetration is determined by load requirement (illustrated in the following examples).
Ramset fasteners may be specified by their type or catalog number to satisfy fastening requirements.

FEATURES
Still the most revolutionary fastening system in the construction industry!
Since its introduction in 1991, TrakFast has been the tool of choice for both interior and exterior contractors. The TrakFast
Automatic Fastening System fastens all types of track, from standard track to hat channel, deep leg, Z, and J channel.
Contractors continue to report tremendous savings when using TrakFast for high production fastening. They have learned
that TrakFast’s actual cost in place beats all other systems. The increased speed and productivity of TrakFast allows the
contractor to bid more competitively, complete the job sooner and move on to the next job. Anyone can use TrakFast—
just load the pins and fire. It’s that easy!
TrakFast’s power comes from the Fastening System Productivity

POWDER FASTENING
ONLINE POWDER TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION

To protect the operator and assure safety on the jobsite, OSHA and ANSI require all powder actuated tool users to be trained
and certified for the tool that will be used. Ramset enables you to receive training thrrough our website training program.
This approach combines interactive web-based training techniques and online testing with feedback during the test.
The course consists of approximately 30 pages of usage, safety, and troubleshooting material. Upon completion of this
brief course, you will immediately take an online exam. With successful completion of the exam, you then print a Ramset
certification card.
At the end of the course, you are also given the ability to download individual tool manuals.
To take the course, and be certified to operate a Ramset powder actuated tool:
• Go to www.Ramset.com
• Find the heading called Get Your License
• Click P.A.T. Licensing
• Click Begin Operator Course (choose English / Spanish / French)
• When course is complete, take the test
• After passing the test, download and print your certificate

High Quality and Dependability

ITW Ramset powder loads and tools match tolerances to provide optimum power within
recognized national velocity standards. Available in color-coded 10-load strips, and 100-load
boxes.
RS27 Series
Caution Always test-fasten with the lowest power level for your tool. If more power is
necessary, use the next highest power level until proper level and fastening is achieved. Refer
to operator's manual for more specific details. Observe all safety reminders. Tool operators must
be trained and qualified as required by federal law. Failure to use properly can result in serious
injury or death to users or bystanders.
Advantages Powder Guide

Power level is designated by the load level number marked on each box; also by the color of
the box and each powder load. As the number increases, the power level increases.
