Our take on the 18-Gauge 2-1/8 in. Brad Nailer with CLEAN DRIVE Technology

The RIDGID 18-Gauge Brad Nailer drives brads up to 2-1/8 in. and centers on CLEAN DRIVE Technology, which RIDGID claims delivers 17 times more consecutive perfect drives than the competition. It is a pneumatic tool with a tool-free selectable trigger for contact or sequential firing, an oil-less motor, dry-fire lockout and a tool-free jam-clearing door. The rear-loading magazine has a by-pass pusher for two-step loading and a semi-transparent body so you can see the nail supply. It suits trim carpenters, cabinet installers and serious DIYers who want fewer misfires and no daily oiling; against rival brad nailers it stands out on jam access and the lifetime service agreement, while it stays a compressed-air tool rather than a cordless one.

About the 18-Gauge 2-1/8 in. Brad Nailer with CLEAN DRIVE Technology

This RIDGID 18-gauge brad nailer drives fasteners from 5/8 in. to 2-1/8 in. long. It uses CLEAN DRIVE Technology, which delivers 17X more consecutive perfect drives than the competition. The nailer is an air tool, so it needs a compressor, which is not included.

It has an oil-less motor, so there is no daily oiling and no oil splatter on the work surface. A tool-free selectable trigger switches between contact and sequential firing modes. A dry-fire lockout extends the motor life and prevents misfires, and a tool-free jam-clearing door gives easy access to clear jams.

The rear-loading magazine has a by-pass pusher for 2-step loading, and its semi-transparent body shows the nail supply. A no-mar pad keeps tool marks off the work surface. The Hex Grip has a micro texture for a secure grip. Registering within 90 days of purchase adds the Lifetime Service Agreement.
