Cleco 19BPA04Q Push Button Reverse Inline Pneumatic Screwdriver | 19 Series | 920 RPM | 0.3 - 3.3 (ft-lbs) Torque Range | 1/4" Hex Quick Change Drive

Built for controlled fastening in production assembly, appliance manufacturing, automotive interiors, and aerospace subassembly work, the Cleco 19BPA04Q is a 19 Series inline pneumatic screwdriver with push-to-start operation and push-button reverse. Its 920 RPM free speed helps keep repetitive screwdriving work moving, while the 1/4" hex quick change drive accepts common insert bits for fast changeovers between fastener sizes. The adjustable Clecomatic clutch (a torque-control clutch that shuts the tool off at a preset torque instead of stalling on the fastener) supports repeatable fastening in light and medium-duty assembly applications.

The 19BPA04Q is suited for stations where operators need a straight, inline grip for downward or fixture-supported fastening. Its compact 9.1" overall length, 1.3 lb tool weight, and 11 SCFM air consumption make it practical for bench assembly, line-side work, and maintenance fastening tasks where consistent torque and bit access matter more than high breakaway force.

Type: Inline Pneumatic Screwdriver | Series: 19 Series | Model: 19BPA04Q | Start Type: Push-to-Start | Reverse Type: Push Button Reverse | Drive: 1/4" Hex Quick Change | Free Speed: 920 RPM | Torque Range: 10-40 in-lbs / 1.1-4.5 Nm | Torque Range with Standard Spring: 10-38 in-lbs / 1.1-4.3 Nm | Overall Length: 9.1" / 230 mm | Weight: 1.3 lbs / 0.61 kg | Air Inlet: 1/8" NPT | Minimum Hose I.D.: 3/16" | Air Consumption: 11 SCFM | Required Air Pressure: 90 PSI / 620 kPa

Features:

• Durable Clecomatic clutch supports torque repeatability and longer calibration intervals for assembly environments where fastener consistency is important.
• Push-to-start operation starts the tool when the bit is pressed into the fastener, reducing extra trigger movement during repetitive screwdriving.
• Push button reverse allows quick direction changes for backing out fasteners, correcting alignment, or servicing assembled components.
• 1/4" hex quick change drive helps operators swap compatible screwdriver bits without slowing the station down.
• Inline handle configuration gives the operator a straight approach to the fastener, useful for vertical assembly, bench fixtures, and recessed fastening points.
• Grip material is tested to withstand a range of industrial chemicals commonly found in assembly and maintenance work areas.
• Standard equipment includes operating instructions and service manual, suspension bail, and all torque springs required to meet the indicated torque range.

Tech Tip: To increase tool performance, extend tool life, and lessen repair costs, use it with a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator FRL)

Applications:

• Automotive assembly — installing interior trim, brackets, panels, light hardware, and other fasteners that require controlled torque rather than high removal power.
• Appliance and electronics production — repetitive screwdriving into housings, covers, assemblies, and subcomponents at bench or line stations.
• Aerospace subassembly — controlled fastening on light components where repeatability, tool size, and straight access are important to the process.
• General manufacturing — fastening screws, machine screws, and small hardware in fixture-supported or handheld assembly work.
• Maintenance and repair benches — removing and reinstalling small fasteners during service work when a compact pneumatic screwdriver is preferred over a manual driver.

FAQs:

• Q: What does a Clecomatic clutch do?
  A: The Clecomatic clutch transmits torque until the preset level is reached, then shuts off the air motor. This helps improve torque repeatability compared with running a fastener by feel.
• Q: What bits fit the 19BPA04Q?
  A: This model uses a 1/4" hex quick change drive, so it accepts compatible 1/4" hex screwdriver bits matched to the fastener style being used.
• Q: Is this screwdriver for removing stuck screws?
  A: No. This is a controlled assembly screwdriver, not an impact driver or breakaway tool. It is best used for installing and backing out light assembly fasteners within its torque range.
• Q: What air supply does this tool require?
  A: Cleco specifies 90 PSI / 620 kPa for maximum rated torque. The tool also lists 11 SCFM air consumption, a 1/8" NPT air inlet, and a 3/16" minimum hose I.D.
• Q: Why choose an inline screwdriver instead of a pistol grip screwdriver?
  A: Inline screwdrivers are useful when the operator approaches the fastener straight on, especially in vertical fastening, bench fixtures, and compact workstations. Pistol grip tools may be preferred when the fastener approach angle or wrist position calls for a trigger-style handle.
