- What nails does this nailer take?
- It uses wire-collated coil nails from 1-1/2 to 3 inches long. Check the nail angle and shank type against the tool's spec before buying a box.
- Do I need a compressor?
- Yes. It is a pneumatic tool and needs a compressor and air hose sized for its air consumption. There is no battery option.
- Can it replace a framing nailer?
- Not fully. It tops out at 3 inch nails, so it handles sheathing, subfloor and decking but not long structural framing nails.
- Is it good for decking?
- Yes, for board fastening with coil nails in the supported length range. For hidden fasteners or hardwood decks, a dedicated decking tool may suit better.
- What comes in the box?
- It is sold as a tool only, without a compressor, hose or nails. Confirm the exact contents with the seller before ordering.
