Spit Pulsa Pins
SPIT Pulsa pins are gas-actuated fixings engineered for direct fastening into concrete, block and steel. Designed for use with SPIT Pulsa tools, they’re the go-to for quick, clean installs of cable clips, trunking, brackets and steel track — with no need for plugs or pre-drilling.
What Are SPIT Pulsa Pins Used For?
These pins are built for professional site work where fast, consistent fixings are needed into hard substrates. They’re most commonly used in first fix electrical, mechanical, and partitioning jobs.
- Fixing Cable Clips to Concrete – Secure trunking, catenary clips or P-clips in slabs or walls without plugs.
- Installing Metal Stud Track – Fire U-channel into concrete floors or soffits with minimal prep.
- Attaching Brackets or Straps – Mount cable tray supports or mechanical fixings directly into masonry.
- Pinning Conduit Saddles or Bases – Fasten fixings flush to floors or ceilings before cable pull-through.
Who Uses SPIT Pulsa Pins?
These pins are used by electrical, M&E and drylining teams looking to speed up repetitive fixing into concrete or steel substrates — saving time compared to plug and screw setups.
- Electricians – First fix cable runs, sockets or surface containment without anchors or drilling.
- Data and Fire System Fitters – Attach clips, saddles and trays quickly during riser or containment builds.
- Dryliners – Pin steel channel into concrete for rapid track laying around slab edges.
- Mechanical Contractors – Mount brackets or supports to hard substrates with minimal vibration or dust.
What Jobs Are Pulsa Pins Best At?
They shine in fast-paced internal fit-outs or slab-to-ceiling works where drilling isn’t practical and tool access is limited.
- Overhead Soffit Fixing – Fire into slab ceilings to fix tray or track without using towers or hammer drills.
- Concrete Wall Cable Routing – Pin clips for surface trunking, tray or saddle at scale and speed.
- Fixing into Steel Decking – Use specialist pins with point hardened tips for through-metal applications.
- Drywall Track Install – Secure base track to slab with no pilot holes, wall plugs or anchors.
- Working in Riser Shafts or Tight Voids – Pin quickly in confined spaces where vibration and access are restricted.
How to Choose the Best Pulsa Pins
Correct pin spec = faster fixing, better hold and tool safety. Match to substrate, application and Pulsa model.
1. Pin Length
Most range from 15mm to 40mm. Use shorter for clips and light fixings, longer for brackets and studs.
2. Pin Head Style
Choose domed or flanged head for holding power. Narrow head for tight clips or saddles.
3. Material Strength
Use hardened steel pins for concrete and steel. Lighter pins for aircrete or softer blockwork.
4. Tool Compatibility
Only use with SPIT Pulsa tools. Check model (e.g. Pulsa 40, Pulsa 800) and ensure pin length is supported.
5. Substrate Type
Match pin to base material. Use steel point for steel deck. Galv or stainless pin for damp slab or external work.

FAQs
Are Pulsa pins strong enough for steel fixing?
Yes — specialist steel-point pins will drive through light gauge steel or steel decking. Use hardened pins for best results.
Can I use Pulsa pins in block walls?
Yes — in dense block or concrete. Aircrete blocks may crumble. Use shorter pins and test first in soft masonry.
What’s the advantage over screw fixing?
Speed. No plugs, drills or fixings required. Fire a pin, and it’s fixed. Great for fast cable installs or slab work.
Do Pulsa pins need gas?
Yes — all Pulsa pins are used with gas nailers. Ensure the gas cell is matched to the tool model and weather conditions.
Can I use these for exterior fixings?
Yes — use stainless steel or galvanised pins for damp, wet or external use. Avoid bright steel in exposed areas.
