If you have a large job to perform, a nail gun is much more practical than a hammer. Hammers are good to drive ten to fifteen nails, although if you intend to drive hundreds or maybe thousands of nails between morning and evening, your arms will thank you for purchasing a nail gun. If you’re intending to buy a nail gun, though, you may as well buy an air powered model which could give you more power and higher overall quality. No one designs an all purpose nail gun; each kind of nail gun is intended for a specific task. Below are explanations of different kinds of air-powered nail guns, each one listing an example presently available to consumers. Don’t forget to look at the Air Power Tools.
Roofing nail guns are designed specifically to shoot nails through shingles and securely into the roof deck. Thanks to the outrageous amount of nails employed on a typical roof, most roofing nail guns employ coiled nail cartridges which will hold about 300 nails at once. One example of a quality constructed, high-performance air powered roofing nailer is the Bostitch RN46-1. This tool provides contact as well as sequential nail shooting, and an integrated gauge to regulate your shingle spacing. This nail gun sells on Amazon for $225. A nice comparable model to check out is the Air Nailers.
A framing nail-gun should give as much kick as a roofing nail gun, although must be lighter and easier to maneuver, since the owner must be able to employ it from numerous different directions, including overhead work. Framing nail guns accommodate either coil cartridges or less capacious stick cartridges, which only contain between 20 to 40 nails. Those stick cartridges are less convenient, since you will be required to switch it out quite often, although they reduce the overall weight of the tool.
Milwaukee’s 7110-202 Framing Nailer is an example of these stick nail guns designed to be both lightweight and powerful. Additional features include an attached air filter which stops dust or debris from gumming up the tool, and a removable no-mar tip to safeguard the workpiece from damage. A 7110-202 framing nail gun could be in your garage for somewhere near $250.00.
A brad nail gun is even less hefty and is made more for accuracy than impact. The adjustable depth setting and bonded no-mar pad on this tool should be expected in any well-made brad nail gun, and extra features including a low-nail monitor and trigger lock are worth searching for. DeWalt’s D51238K Brad Nailer includes all of those features and several more, placed in a $95.00 present and decorated with a 5-year warranty for a bow.
You probably wouldn’t want to use a framing nail gun to fasten shelving to a curio cabinet. As a corollary, a brad nail gun could be just about useless for shoving nails through a truss beam. Using the right tool for the job pertains to air powered nail guns the same as every other tool.
