Our take on the Metabo HPT 21 Degree 3-1/4 Inch Plastic Collated Framing Nailer

The Metabo HPT NR83A5 is a pneumatic framing nailer that drives 21-degree plastic-collated round-head nails from 2 to 3-1/4 inches. It uses the cylinder valve drive system for fast, powerful driving, and a selectable trigger lets you switch between contact and single-sequential fire. A top-loading magazine speeds reloads, and the tool carries a 5-year warranty. It suits framers, deck builders and remodelers who want a proven, durable workhorse; it is a full round-head plastic-collated tool, so it will not run clipped-head or paper-collated nails, and it needs a compressor and hose rather than a battery.

About the Metabo HPT 21 Degree 3-1/4 Inch Plastic Collated Framing Nailer

The Metabo HPT NR83A5 is a pneumatic framing nailer for 21 degree, full round head, plastic collated strip nails. It drives nails from 2 in to 3-1/4 in. It is used for floor and wall framing, truss build-up, window build-up, sub flooring and roof decking. It is also used for wall sheathing in mobile home and modular home construction.

It uses a cylinder valve drive system for quick response and powerful driving. The trigger has a switch to select contact or single sequential actuation. Depth adjustment and jam clearing are tool free. The hardened claw tip resists wear and grips wood for driving nails at different angles.

The magazine loads from the top. The rafter hook can be positioned on the left or right side.

Questions and answers

What nails does the NR83A5 take?
It takes 21-degree plastic-collated full round-head framing nails from 2 to 3-1/4 inches long. It does not run clipped-head or paper-collated strips.
Does it need a compressor?
Yes. It is a pneumatic tool, so it needs an air compressor and hose. It has no battery or cordless option.
What is the difference from the NR83A5(S)?
The NR83A5 has adjustable depth control. The NR83A5(S) is the fixed-depth version for buyers who do not need depth adjustment.
Can I change how the trigger fires?
Yes. A switch in the trigger selects contact actuation or single sequential actuation mode.
How does it compare with cordless framing nailers?
It is lighter than most cordless framers and has no battery to charge, but it is tethered to a compressor. Cordless models trade that hose for battery weight and cost.
What warranty does it carry?
Metabo HPT backs the NR83A5 with a 5-year warranty.
