Fastener holding tool and system

摘要

A fastener driving system and a fastener holding tool (20) therefor having a shank (22) and a resilient retainer (40) with a bore (43) therethrough coupled to a first end portion (24) of the shank (22). A first end (44) of the resilient retainer (40) and a portion of the resilient retainer bore protrudes axially beyond the first end (25) of the shank (22). An annular chamfer (50) could be disposed on the resilient retainer (40) between a first end (45) and the bore (43) thereof. The system includes a fastener (30) having a shaft with a head formed on a trailing end portion thereof. The fastener head diameter (37) is greater than the retainer bore diameter (43) of the resilient retainer protruding axially beyond the first end (25) of the shank (22) to engage and retain the fastener (30).
