The present invention relates to a composite material including a substrate with a first and a second surface, a boundary layer which is comprised of one or more compositions, and a topical application. The tools may be loaded to hold multiple fasteners at a single time. The first and second interconnecting members are separated from one another by a distance substantially equal to a distance separating the conductive traces in each pair. The axial length of the drive piston can be reduced, whereby the mass of the drive piston and vibrations caused by the movement of the drive piston in the percussive and idling mode can also be reduced. Rows of the smaller table that have non-skewed values in the join column are redistributed, and rows of the smaller table that have skewed values in the join column are duplicated among the processing modules.
