## Summary

A gas-actuated fastening tool used mainly to fix drywall track and light fixtures to concrete and steel. It runs on a single gas can with no battery, delivers up to 100 J and holds 40 nails.

## Why this one

- **Gas only**: No battery or cartridges, just nails and a gas can.
- **100 J driving power**: Fixes 14 to 39 mm nails into concrete and steel.
- **40-nail magazine**: Curved design reaches into deep track.
- **Hilti Connect**: Tool data and diagnostics via the Hilti app.

## The story

### Fast track fixing

Drywall and interior fit-out crews fixing metal track to floors and soffits need speed more than anything. The GX 3 drives 14 to 39 mm nails into concrete and steel with up to 100 J, and the curved 40-nail magazine reaches into deep track sections.

### Single energy source

Everything comes from a GC 40, 41 or 42 gas can, so there is no battery to charge or cartridge strip to load. A gas gauge shows what is left, and the tool is Hilti Connect enabled for diagnostics. It weighs 3.99 kg and comes in a case with a pin punch.

### Where it fits

It sits between the battery BX 4-22, aimed at M&E fixings, and the powder-actuated DX 6 for heavier work. A kit version includes two GC 42 gas cans. Hilti describes it as a single-energy-source tool, which keeps the daily routine simple: load nails, fit a gas can and work.
