Built for controlled fastening in assembly cells, repair benches, and production workstations, the Cleco 88RSATP-2CQ is an 88 Series pistol grip pneumatic screwdriver with trigger start, sliding knob reverse, and a 1/4" hex quick change drive for fast bit changes during repetitive fastening. Its 200 RPM free speed gives operators a slower, more controlled rundown than higher-speed models, while the 1.2 - 14.7 ft-lbs torque range supports medium-duty assembly jobs where repeatability matters more than raw speed.
The dependable Clecomatic clutch, a torque-controlled clutch system that helps the tool shut off consistently at the set torque, delivers repeatable fastening for metal, appliance, automotive, and general manufacturing assemblies. External torque adjustment lets tool techs fine-tune output without disassembling the screwdriver, and the compact pistol grip layout helps operators maintain control during repeated horizontal or fixture-adjacent fastening tasks.

Tech Tip: To increase tool performance, extend tool life, and lessen repair costs, use it with a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator FRL)
Applications:
- General manufacturing: Controlled fastening of brackets, panels, housings, and light mechanical assemblies where consistent torque is required.
- Automotive and transportation assembly: Installing interior, trim, fixture, and component fasteners that call for repeatable torque rather than impact force.
- Appliance and equipment production: Running screws into metal or pre-threaded components on bench stations and line-side work cells.
- Maintenance and MRO shops: Repetitive screwdriving tasks where pneumatic power, quick bit changes, and reverse capability improve workflow.
- DIY and garage work: Controlled fastening for hobby fabrication, equipment repair, and shop projects when paired with a properly sized compressed air system.
FAQs:
- Q: What does the 1.2 - 14.7 ft-lbs torque range mean?
A: It indicates the adjustable fastening torque range of the screwdriver. This model is suited for medium-duty screwdriving tasks where consistent torque control is needed across repeated fasteners. - Q: What is a Clecomatic clutch?
A: The Clecomatic clutch is Cleco’s torque-controlled clutch system. It helps the tool deliver repeatable shut-off at the selected torque setting, which is important in assembly work where fasteners must be tightened consistently. - Q: What bits fit the 1/4" hex quick change drive?
A: This model accepts compatible 1/4" hex quick-change screwdriver bits and bit holders. Always match the bit style and length to the fastener, access angle, and assembly fixture. - Q: Is 200 RPM considered fast for a pneumatic screwdriver?
A: No. The 200 RPM speed is a lower-speed configuration, giving the operator more control during rundown and final seating compared with faster models in the same tool family. - Q: Can this tool be used on a standard shop air system?
A: Yes, when the system can supply the required 19.1 SCFM and clean, regulated air at the manufacturer’s rated operating pressure. A properly sized FRL is recommended to protect performance and tool life.
