adjustments for shooting 2-3/8" nail
588526
Cartridge dials to accommodate coils 1-1/4-1-1/2 or 1-3/4-2 or 2-1/4-2-1/2. Provided it was the proper angle and nail size, a 2-3/8 coil should shoot fine at largest setting. On board depth setting to adjust nail depth when fired. It was recommeded to me as best on market siding gun and I'd agree. Has survived multiple drops and usually jambs only when the coil of nails is messed up.

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

You can adjust the setting for depth. Most often you do not want the nail head to penetrate the surface of the siding or sheeting. This has been a work horse for me. Excellent siding nailer and excellent when you need ringshank nails.

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)

If you do a search for the Bostitch framing nailer you will see that is requires 28 deg. I ended up buying Bostitch nails just to be safe but any manufacturer that makes them in 28 deg will work.

I don't recall since I bought different sized brads when I bought this nailer. I think it was 3/4".

I don't think so. The head of the nail would have to be less then about 3/8" Dia. to fit into the small hole in the nailer.

I think i set mine between 40-60psi. You really need an air compressor with volume...not a small pancake style meant for a nailer but a full size version.

I have personally run framing nail sizes from 2 1/2" to 3 1/2". It may stretch a bit more than that.

No, the nailer has no adjustments, but it seems to sense the wood density and countersink the pinhead just perfect. To get to different depths you use different lengths of pins. I have several sizes from 1/2" to 1-3/8". If you cut back on the air compression, it will leave the pinhead sticking out.

This should do the job no problem use the 2" nails T or the L shaped nails .

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

I am not 100% sure, but my flooring was 3/8" and the nailer is adjustable to the thickness of the floor so it should be no problem.

Make sure and use Bostitch brand nails with it, and it works great. Adjustable nail depth is very consistent.

All the nailers use different ones. They are the plastic bound nails though. Round head 21 degree

The tip is between 3/8" and 1/2", with variance because of crimping the tube to form the tip.

straight nails it will use any brand 16 gauge finish nail 1.25-2.5 inches in length

The brand of nails does not matter. Any straight 18 ga. 5/8" to 2" should work. Others might have experience with a specific brand. The manufacturer provides some generic brand ones they deem are acceptable.

To adjust the drive-in depth of a nail, loosen the screw that secures the nose/tip (their are two screws). If the nail is driven in deeply, adjust the nose up, if driven in shallowly adjust the nose down. Tighten the two (2) screws and test.
