Abstract
A gas spring-powered fastener driver includes an outer cylinder, an inner cylinder positioned within the outer cylinder, and a moveable piston positioned within the inner cylinder. The gas spring-powered fastener driver further includes a driver blade attached to the piston and movable therewith between a top-dead-center (TDC) position and a driven or bottom-dead-center (BDC) position. The outer cylinder and the inner cylinder define a first total volume in which gas is located when the driver blade is in the TDC position. The outer cylinder and the inner cylinder define a second total volume, in which gas is located when the driver blade is in the BDC position. A compression ratio of the second total volume to the first total volume is 1.7:1 or less. And, a force acting on the driver blade when located in the TDC position is at least 90 pound-force (lbf) but no more than 450 pound-force (lbf).
