Air Compressor FAQ

Shingle roofs are usually easy to fix. At the marked leak point, look for damaged, curled or missing shingles. At every place where two surfaces meet and around every chimney or vent, look for breaks in the flashing/caulking or gaps in the lines of roof cement. Learn more about how to repair a leaky roof.
Torque is a force that tends to rotate or turn things. You generate a torque any time you apply a force using a wrench. Tightening the lug nuts on your car wheels is a good example. When you use a wrench, you apply a force to the handle. This force creates a torque on the lug nut, which tends to turn the lug nut. Learn more about how torque works.
Inside a nail gun, the nails are glued together loosely in a long strip. This nail strip loads into the gun's magazine, which feeds into the "barrel" of the gun. Springs in the base of the magazine push the nail strip into the barrel. When the hammer comes down, it separates the first nail from the strip, driving it out of the gun and into the wood. When the hammer is cocked back, the springs push the next nail into position. Learn more about how nail guns work.
