Does this accept any manufacturers 16 ga nails or only hitachi nails?

It accepts other besides Hitachi, I"ve used Dewalt and Porter Cable and they worked fine.

THEY say that HITACHI NAILS ONLY but I've checked from the local (Finland) manual and it says there that use only nails that meet the dimensions stated in the table below - HITACHI is not mentioned there. I think it is a liability statement for the USA only. I'll use any nails in mine as long as those meet the dimensions in the table.

The Hitachi NT65M2 16 Gauge nailer will accept any standard 16 gauge nails.

I and my coworkers used diferrent brand of nails for these hitachi guns and they worked great

I used a bostitch that had 150psi max output to drive 16p nails. Setting the output above 100psi. That might be above the rating for this nailer but it worked for me.

Not sure. Here is the link to the nails that I used in this nailer. They can be purchased at Home Depot. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Bostitch-2-in-Leg-16-Gauge-Galvanized-Steel-Flooring-Cleats-1-000-Pack-FLN-200/100178451?N=5yc1vZc2d8

I am unsure what a pin nailer might be. It must be a regional term. Brads, I guess could be called "pin-nails" It will handle 18 guage brads from 3/8" to 2 inches. Mine is a fantastic machine that is easily unjammed should one occur and has very few misfires. Hope this helps

I purchased the nails from a local supplier. The gun uses standard nails. I'm sure Home Depot or Lowes carries the nails for this type of nail gun.

The 18 gauge nail are smaller than the 16 for trim work and floor i would recomend u the 18 gauge cause is easier to patch the hole that the nail leaves

Not sure. I bought mines at Home depot. "Grip Rite" 21 deg /4000 nails 3 1/4" for around 50 bucks. Not a jam after more than 1000 shots. The Max is amazing.

I have used these in 2 different brad nailers with positive results. As long as your nailed takes 18 gage straight you should be ok.

It does not matter. Either 21 degree or 22 degree nails will work just fine. This nailer has about a 3 degree tolerance on nail angle. Use either 21 or 22 degree nails - you won't be able to tell the difference. If you still have doubts, call porter cable customer service, they will telly you the same thing. p.s. buy this nailer! it works great!!

The impact driver is for driving screws, philips or square or torx or hex drive screws. If you are looking to drive 16p nails an air powered palm nailer is better. There are some electric nail drivers, not sure they would work well with framing nails.

No, this tool uses 18 gauge braid nails while finish nails are usually 16 gauge

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.

If you are referring to the same nails as a hitachi nv65ah then yes it uses the same nails

This gun uses several different sizes of hitachi nails. I used some 2 1/4", 3" and 3 1/2" in my deck project. The gun worked flawlessly. Importantly, though, is the level of you expertise, the size of your air tank, etc. to adequately answer your query. On first thought, yes; however experience level could mitigate that.

I purchased the nailer specifically for 18GA brads. 16GA can split small pieces of wood, quarter round, etc. I'm retired and use mine for interior trim and small woodworking projects using brads with glue or just brads. Once you use a pneumatic nailer, you will seldom, if ever, use a hammer and nail again. There is a depth adjustment on all nailers. Test the adjustment using a piece of scrap of same wood. Obviously, a brad won't sink as deeply into oak as pine. Happy nailing.

I don't see a problem as long as they are a coil nail with a normal sized head as opposed to roofing nails which have a large head. The guns nail tray adjusts for diffrent lengths. I would check hitachis web site for min length on the nails. I have been using 2 1/4"-2 3/8" lengths.

I bought the NuMax SP123 23 pin nailer and it works very well. I do a lot of molding work and this gun is great.It leaves a very small pin hole (makes for easy sanding) and holds tight. Use high quality pin nails for best performance.
