Pneumatic Tools

AIMS Industrial sells a wide range of industrial pneumatic tools. Our comprehensive range covers impact wrenches, die grinders, air drills, ratchets, blow guns, hammers and nailers — all powered by compressed air for maximum power-to-weight performance. Key brands include Speed Tools, Retracta, Hansa, Sutton Tools, Trax, Hikoki and Pferd.

Pneumatic Tools We Stock

• Impact Wrenches (Speed Tools, Trax): Pneumatic impact wrenches in 1/2", 3/4", and 1" drive for high-torque fastener removal and installation in automotive, heavy vehicle, and industrial maintenance. Air impact wrenches deliver far more torque than battery-powered equivalents of the same weight — essential for wheel nuts, structural bolts, and seized fasteners on heavy plant.
• Die Grinders & Air Drills (Hansa, Trax): Pneumatic die grinders for deburring, port polishing, weld cleaning, and precision grinding in confined spaces. Air drills for production drilling, tapping, and reaming where electric tools would overheat under continuous duty. Hansa straight and angled die grinders provide access to restricted machining locations in fabrication and maintenance.
• Abrasive & Cutting Tools (Pferd): Pferd pneumatic cut-off tools, angle grinders, and surface conditioning tools for weld preparation, metal cutting, and surface finishing. Pferd air tools are matched to Pferd abrasive wheels and discs — providing a system approach to pneumatic grinding, cutting, and surface treatment in fabrication workshops.
• Drill Bits & Taps (Sutton Tools): Sutton Tools HSS and carbide drill bits, taps, and reamers for use in air drills and tapping machines. Sutton Tools manufactures cutting tools in Australia to industry specifications — a reliable source for replacement drills and taps when air-powered drilling and tapping programs wear through tooling.
• Air Hose Reels (Retracta): Retracta spring-return hose reels keep compressed air hose tidy and off the floor — critical for workshop safety and hose longevity. Retracta manufactures hose reels in Australia; their spring-driven retractable reels are a standard fitting in Australian automotive workshops, mines, and fabrication facilities.
• Nailers & Hammers (Hikoki, Speed Tools): Hikoki (formerly Hitachi) pneumatic nailers for structural framing, flooring, and finishing nail applications. Speed Tools air hammers and chipping tools for scale removal, demolition, and general-purpose impact work on construction sites and maintenance shutdowns.

Why Choose Pneumatic Tools?

• Superior power density: Air tools deliver more torque per kilogram than electric equivalents — critical for automotive, mining and heavy fabrication work.
• Continuous-duty performance: No motor to overheat means air tools can run continuously in production environments where cordless tools would fade.
• Reduced maintenance cost: Pneumatic tools have fewer electrical components — motor, brushes and batteries are eliminated, reducing long-term running costs.
• Intrinsically safe option: Air tools are the preferred choice in potentially explosive environments (fuel, gas, chemical plants) where electrical sparks are a hazard.
• Wide tool selection: One compressor powers your entire pneumatic toolkit — impact wrenches, grinders, drills, saws, sanders and nail guns from a single supply.

Pneumatic Tool Selection Guide

• CFM and PSI requirements: Each tool has a minimum CFM (air volume) and operating PSI. Size your compressor to the highest-demand tool in your kit, plus 25% headroom.
• Duty cycle: Match compressor duty cycle to usage — intermittent workshop use suits a 50% duty cycle; production lines need 100% continuous-run compressors.
• Hose ID and length: Undersized or excessively long hoses starve high-consumption tools. Use 10 mm ID hose for grinders and impact wrenches.
• Quick-connect fittings: Standardise your shop on a single coupling type (Milton, ARO or Euro) to allow tools to be swapped across workstations instantly.
• Australian Business, Local Supply: As a proudly Australian business since 1988, we stock locally and work with trusted local Australian manufacturers and distributors to ensure fast, reliable supply.
