Why does the TapeTech Nail Spotter not have wheels?

TapeTech uses a “skid” instead of wheels on both the 63TT (2”) and 68TT (3”) Nail Spotters. The benefit of the skid is that it provides better protection for the blade in case there are nails or screws that may not be totally set beneath the surface of the drywall. If the fasteners are too high, the blade could be damaged when striking them during normal operation.

Nail Spotters with wheels expose the entire blade to this damage. The blade on the TapeTech Nail Spotters is protected by the skid so they last longer.
