B25C HAND-HELD NAILING OR STAPLING TOOLS; MANUALLY OPERATED PORTABLE STAPLING TOOLS (for shoemaking A43D)
Description
B25C encompasses hand-held and manually-operated tools designed for driving nails, staples, or similar fasteners into materials. This subclass covers both non-powered mechanical devices (such as claw hammers, nail guns operated by manual trigger mechanisms, and hand staplers) and portable power-driven variants used for fastening applications. The classification includes the tool mechanisms themselves, driving systems, and structural designs that facilitate repetitive or single fastening operations in construction, carpentry, and assembly work. Related fastening processes and the fasteners themselves are addressed in separate classifications.
