The Asgard HAMMER Automatic Taper applies paper joint tape and joint compound together in one pass on drywall flat seams, ceilings, and inside corners. The tool meters compound as it moves so crews can tape long runs with consistent coverage, then use the built-in creaser wheel to seat the tape into inside corners before rolling and finishing. A lightweight control tube gives the finisher a direct grip on the cutting action, while the adjustable brake helps keep the taper running smoothly under control. Hard-anodized drive components resist wear and corrosion, the stainless-steel push rod provides a durable drive connection, and the cutting mechanism ends each tape run cleanly. Load the HAMMER from a compatible joint-compound pump through a gooseneck. It accepts standard paper joint tape from 2 1/16 to 2 1/8 inches wide, making it the central application tool in an Asgard automatic drywall taping system. Asgard offers a more affordable automatic taper for professional contractors building or expanding a production taping setup. Key Features Two-in-one application: Applies paper tape and joint compound in the same pass Drive components: Hard-anodized drive parts and stainless-steel push rod Control system: Adjustable braking supports controlled operation Cutting action: Smooth tape-cutting mechanism ends each run cleanly Loading connection: Fills from a compound pump through a gooseneck How It Works The taper meters compound as it moves, independent of travel speed. The control tube activates the tape cut, and the creaser wheel seats the tape into inside corners before rolling and finishing. .tt-faq-block *{box-sizing:border-box} .tt-faq-item{border-top:1px solid rgba(24,72,51,.14)} .tt-faq-summary{list-style:none;cursor:pointer;padding:16px 0;min-height:56px;touch-action:manipulation;-webkit-tap-highlight-color:transparent} .tt-faq-summary::-webkit-details-marker{display:none} .tt-faq-summary h5{display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:space-between;gap:16px;margin:0;color:#0f2f23;font-size:16px;line-height:1.4} .tt-faq-summary:hover h5{color:#184833} .tt-faq-summary:focus-visible{outline:2px solid #184833;outline-offset:4px;border-radius:6px} .tt-faq-icon{position:relative;flex:0 0 26px;width:26px;height:26px;border:1px solid rgba(24,72,51,.35);border-radius:50%;background:#fff} .tt-faq-icon::before,.tt-faq-icon::after{content:"";position:absolute;left:50%;top:50%;width:12px;height:2px;border-radius:2px;background:#184833;transform:translate(-50%,-50%);transition:transform .2s ease,opacity .2s ease} .tt-faq-icon::after{transform:translate(-50%,-50%) rotate(90deg)} .tt-faq-item[open] .tt-faq-icon::after{transform:translate(-50%,-50%) rotate(90deg) scaleX(0);opacity:0} .tt-faq-answer{overflow:hidden;animation:tt-faq-answer-in .2s ease-out} .tt-faq-answer p{margin:0;padding:0 42px 16px 0;font-size:16px;line-height:1.55} @keyframes tt-faq-answer-in{from{opacity:0;transform:translateY(-4px)}to{opacity:1;transform:translateY(0)}} @media(max-width:720px){.tt-faq-block{padding:18px!important}.tt-faq-block>h3{font-size:16px!important;margin-bottom:10px!important}.tt-faq-summary{min-height:60px;padding:17px 0}.tt-faq-summary h5{gap:12px;font-size:16px}.tt-faq-answer p{padding:0 0 17px}} @media(prefers-reduced-motion:reduce){.tt-faq-icon::before,.tt-faq-icon::after,.tt-faq-answer{animation:none;transition:none}} Product FAQ What does the HAMMER Automatic Taper apply?
