Hello Yes these will work Here is a small hint with this do not hit the nail gun super hard you will screw up your flooring this is with all floor nail guns it screws up the edge of wood and you don't see it until you look from across the room these nails are great don't try and pull wood up after you nail it down I put 3 nails every 1.5ft I make sure this is never going to move or come up Harbor freight sells a floor kit that will be good to get too has spacers and a pull bar get that too Dan

If the hole the tip fits into is 5/16" in diameter then it should. That seems to be the deciding factor on these chucks. I tried 5 different sizes on my Harbor Freight, Central Machine 17" press and this one was the only one that would fit. And it fits perfectly.

There is no gauge listed on nailer. This nailer uses L-shaped flooring nails which for the 3/4 inch flooring I installed .used Bostitch FLN-200 2 inch nails which worked great. Layed over 800sf of flooring and nailer worked perfect--no problems.

Yes. The nailer comes with shoe plates for different flooring thickness. 1/2, 5/8, and 3/4 inches. Premium bamboo is usually 5/8" thick. Make sure to set up the nailer properly and nail away. The nailer comes with a good instruction manual. Cheers.

3.5" galvanized nails will work. keep a steady high air pressure (no leaks).John

They might, but some will not, I had two that got stuck in my Bosh hammer drill, I almost damaged the drill getting them out. If I recall these bits are $19.99 or may be $29.99. So take your chances.

Call harbor freight and ask them the tread size. If it matches the backing plate it should work.

According to the manual on porter cable's website the nailer is 2.83 cfm @ 80 psi for 100 cycles (Nails). If you had a 3 gallon air tank I would assume that would work.

It depends on if they are 16 gauge or 18 gauge nails. Typically the brad nailer is 18 gauge, but check on the gun to confirm that.

Hi, the nailer comes with two spacers - one is 1/2" and the other is 25/32" - pretty close to the 3/4 you're installing. My floor is 3/4 oak as well. Used the 2" L-Cleats. It does take a little practice to get the hammer force just right. Make sure the nailer is set tight above the tongue and flat on the board/flooring before you strike. You'll understand once you see it.

Yes I use Bostitch all the time. They work great. You may have to change the nail plate on the gun to accommodate your flooring. Hold it up and see how it fits. Test fire a piece to see if it will work as is.

I use these with bostitch siding gun. I used the whole box. No problems. Used with hardie boards.

I have a CH FP2048 Air compressor and would not recommend it for a nailer or riveter since ACFM requirements do not match capability of air compressor. Check air requirements on internet of items you want to operate and compare with available compressors. Having to little air just wont cut it.

Yes absolutely as long as they are made of metal. Mine often finds small nails as deep as 6" in the ground.

I agree with Jeff Groff. For 3/4" flooring use the larger nailer with a mallet.

I'm not really sure if this nailer will drive the 18ga. cleats. It may, but I have not tried them. It does a fine job with the 16ga. No problems at all with the one that I received.

Yes, it sure will. That's what I used it for. I used Bostitch 1 & 9/16" 18g brads. Set the pressure at 70psi and fiddled with the depth gauge to slightly bury the nails in the tongue. Worked perfectly.
