ABSTRACT:
A unitary fastener collation tube for retaining a plurality of fasteners useable in a stand-up fastener driving tool. The fastener collation tube includes an elongated body member having a channel having a substantially T-shaped cross section for receiving the fasteners arranged side by side therein. At least one end of the elongated body member includes a resilient fastener retaining member engageable with an endmost fastener of the plurality of fasteners so as to retain the plurality of fasteners in the channel of the fastener collation tube, whereby the plurality of fasteners retained in the fastener collation tube are releasable from the fastener collation tube when the resilient fastener retaining member is disengaged from the endmost fastener. The stand-up fastener driving tool includes a magazine with a slot for retaining a plurality of fasteners arranged side by side therein, and a tube holder coupled to the magazine for receiving the fastener collation tube, wherein a corresponding prong extending into the channel of the tube holder is engageable with the resilient fastener retaining member of the elongated body member so as to disengage the resilient fastener retaining member from the endmost fastener disposed therein.
