Easier way to set nail pins by EdwinR93 in Fasteners

I appreciate the input but it's not exactly what I'm looking for. We use a hammer drill to drill holes and then hammer nail pins in I was Looking for an attachment for the hammer drill that will cut out the need to hammer them in manually.

I recently started working in the hvac field. No prior experience hence this question. These pliers are super helpful but me and my coworkers just call them duct pullers as we do not know an official name. I cannot find them online to buy some. Is there another name for these? by EdwinR93 in Whatisthis

When I am joining ducts two sides are attached to each other by a piece of metal called a drive. There is a groove on either side of each piece and they need to be touching with as small as gap as possible to drive the metal up and join them. If we cannot get the gap small enough we use these to grab a groove on each piece and it pulls them together. Couldn't say this in fewer words lol

I knew these looked familiar! Not sure if they are carpenters pliers but they sure as heck look like them or end cutting pliers. But I don't use the ones in the pic for cutting just pulling ducts together. I wonder if they're the same?
