Abstract

A fastener driver includes a housing, a cylinder supported by the housing, and a moveable piston positioned within the cylinder. A driver blade is attached to the piston and movable therewith between a top-dead-center (TDC) position and a driven or bottom-dead-center (BDC) position. The driver blade includes a body portion extending along a longitudinal axis, and a tip portion configured to contact a fastener. The tip portion is bisected by a central axis that is parallel with the longitudinal axis such that the tip portion is laterally offset relative to the body portion.
