As far as I am aware as long as they are the correct angle (21 degrees) and full round head galvanised or non galvanized shouldn't matter.. I've used several different brand and didn't seem to matter I even talked with tech support to make sure I could use the paper collated nails by duofast cause I prefer the paper (it doesn't hit you when you're firing nails) and tech support said the collation didn't matter..best of luck

absolutely not. 2 in. is the smallest it will take. any mfg as long as they are plastic collated round head nails 21 DEGREE

This nail gun only shoots 18 gauge nails. I do think it would heavy enough for a outside fence. The gun is great for inside trim work. You would have better success with larger galvanized nails which will not rust. I think a larger finishing nailer would be better.

Sorry to say that I had the same trouble with mine. I ran the pressure up to 110 and it started to drive the nails. Just to add I thought this gun would shoot staples but only pin nails. Wish I had better news for you.

The 2 1/2" nailer is made for 16 ga. nails, the other nailer is an 18 ga. nailer and this is the one you would use with the supplied finish nails. The 2 1/2" model will accommodate any 16 ga. nails up to 2 1/2", they do not have to necessarily be that length though. I believe your nail shank diameter (gauge) need to match the nailer but please refer to the documentation that came with it.

Son, this gun drives framing nails! I use JSB Exact domed pellets (8.44gr) and Beeman crow magnum (8.8) with good accuracy and power. Lodges far into 2x4's. I would use Beeman Silver Arrow pointed (11.57) but i think they might be the exact length of the revolver magazine tube- leading to jamming issues either on the point or the skirt of the pellet. But anyways- this gun is the IT accessory to treat yourself to!!!

Typically with an engineered product you're looking to use an 18 gauge staple. This gun only accepts 15.5-16 gauge staples, so for nail-down engineered you're going to need something else.

18 Gauge only. From 5/8" to 2" length nail size. If you need a 16 Gauge nail gun here is the link on that one (Never use a 16 gauge): DEWALT D51257K 1-Inch to 2-1/2-Inch 16 Gauge Finish Nailer

I shot 2-1/4 duo fast nails, this gun is not worth any price it ruined several pieces of T111 siding so I returned it and paid the dough for the sweet makita.

I don't the model numbers but the one that I purchased is for 18ga nails, there is another one that shoots 15 or 16ga nails which are used for typical trim like base, crown and door trim. If you are using for small trim you need 18ga or smaller nails.

I found it does fine with 8 penny nails. Like any nail gun, you have to get the gun in position to get a good toe nail.

Yes it will. Try to keep the battery fully charged..It tends to slow down when nailing.

With this gun or any other airless gun you will have problems going through oak stair treads and if the framing lumber is old and also hard wood don't even try it. You will get recoil and the nail will not sink at all. Most times you will have at least 1/4 to 1 inch of nail exposed that you can't sink with a nail set and you will have a hell of a time getting the nails back out. I have Senco Fusion and Bostitch and neither would do it you might ruin the gun as well.

It's listed up to a 2-1/2, anything bigger probably would not fit in the holder or properly go up the feed. I have only used two inch nails though. Great gun. Worth the extra over the bostitch. Mark

1.5" nails will not work with this gun. You need a positive placement gun for the hanger nails. The only framing nailer I know of that also does 1.5" positive placement nails is the Bostitch: http://www.amazon.com/BOSTITCH-F21PL-Positive-Placement-Magnesium/dp/B000A79HWA/ref=pd_sim_sbs_hi_5?ie=UTF8&refRID=0PR44BHE2G14VH0NKF9F

Yes it does. In fact, I had the unit turned up too high for a fascia I was installing, and the nails actually went through the entire board. There is a '' thumb screw'' type adjustment around the trigger area. I also want to note that I have had some mis-fires, but I only imagine that might be the case with other brands of nails guns also.

Yes it did a great job of driving these nails. The 1 3/4 inch nail is what I used. I just turned down the output from the compressor to about 80 psi and went to work. There are also depth adjustments on the gun itself. I only used mine for one job and then put it back into a box until next time that I might need it. I am really happy with this purchase. Hope this helps.Mike. (Joy is my wife)
