Our take on the Milwaukee M18 FUEL 18 Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 18 Gauge Brad Nailer - Tool Only

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 18 Gauge Brad Nailer is a cordless finish nailer that drives 18 gauge brads with a nitrogen air spring instead of a compressor and hose. It has zero ramp-up time, tool-free depth adjustment, and sequential and contact actuation modes. It suits trim carpenters, remodelers and cabinet installers who want pneumatic-style results without gas cartridges. Against gas nailers it avoids cartridge cost and maintenance; against pneumatic guns it trades unlimited runtime for freedom from a hose. It is sold as a bare tool, so you need an M18 battery and charger.

About the Milwaukee M18 FUEL 18 Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 18 Gauge Brad Nailer - Tool Only

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 18 Gauge Brad Nailer is a cordless nailer that works without a compressor or hose. It uses a nitrogen air spring mechanism to sink nails to the proper depth in hard and soft woods. It leaves clean nail holes that match the head of the nail.

A POWERSTATE brushless motor and REDLINK PLUS intelligence give it a fast fire rate with zero ramp-up time. It runs on M18 REDLITHIUM batteries and uses sealed compressed nitrogen to drive each nail, so it needs no gas cartridges.

The nailer is compact and lightweight, which helps it fit into tight spaces and limits fatigue. It has tool-free drive depth adjustment, a tool-free jam clearing latch and a dry fire lockout. It fires in sequential or contact actuation mode.
