Ingersoll Rand 8515-APR-P Pistol Grip Pneumatic Screwdriver provides responsive fastening performance with convenient directional control. Part of the 0 QRT Series, this air-powered screwdriver delivers 1,500 RPM free speed and 50 in-lbs maximum torque for driving threaded fasteners in manufacturing and assembly operations. Its positive jaw clutch provides direct mechanical engagement during fastening and is recommended for applications requiring greater driving torque than final seating torque. The Quick Reverse Touch Control (QRT) system allows operators to change rotation direction using a two-finger trigger arrangement, making it particularly useful for workstations where screws must be frequently installed, removed, or repositioned.
The 8515-APR-P features a pistol grip configuration with trigger-start operation and a 1/4-inch hex quick-change drive for compatible screwdriver bits. Weighing 2.9 lbs and measuring 8.2 inches in overall length, the tool offers a compact fastening arrangement for repetitive assembly tasks. Its 0.9-inch side-to-center distance helps operators evaluate access around nearby components and assembly fixtures. The screwdriver requires 27 CFM air consumption at free speed and features a 1/4-inch NPT air inlet with a 5/16-inch minimum hose size. With a manufacturer-listed 82 dBA sound level, the 8515-APR-P provides defined operating specifications for integration into industrial compressed-air fastening systems.

FAQs:
- Q: What is the maximum torque of the Ingersoll Rand 8515-APR-P?
A: The 8515-APR-P provides a maximum torque of 50 in-lbs with a free speed of 1,500 RPM. Its positive jaw clutch is intended for applications requiring greater driving torque than final seating torque. - Q: What is Quick Reverse Touch Control (QRT)?
A: QRT is Ingersoll Rand's control system that enables convenient direction changes using a two-finger trigger arrangement. It is particularly useful when assembly work requires frequent reversing or screw realignment. - Q: Does the 8515-APR-P automatically shut off at a preset torque?
A: No. This model uses a positive jaw clutch rather than an automatic shut-off clutch. For applications requiring controlled final tightening torque, an appropriate torque-control screwdriver should be selected. - Q: What compressed-air requirements does the 8515-APR-P have?
A: The manufacturer specifies 27 CFM air consumption at free speed, a 1/4-inch NPT air inlet, and a 5/16-inch minimum hose size. The compressed-air supply should be appropriately sized for the fastening application. - Q: How does the 8515-APR-P differ from the 8683-BPR-P?
A: Both models use a positive jaw clutch and provide 50 in-lbs maximum torque. The 8515-APR-P operates at 1,500 RPM and weighs 2.9 lbs, while the 8683-BPR-P operates at 750 RPM and weighs 2.0 lbs. The 8515-APR-P provides the higher free speed for applications requiring faster screw rundown.
