FAQs

What is the difference between a brad nailer and a finish nailer?

The main difference between a brad nailer and a finish nailer is the size and gauge of the nails they use. Brad nailers typically use 18-gauge nails that are thinner and smaller in diameter than the nails used in finish nailers, which are usually 15 or 16-gauge. As a result, brad nail guns are suitable for more delicate trim and moulding work, while finish nail guns are better suited for heavier duty trim work, such as baseboards and crown moulding.

Additionally, brad nailers leave smaller holes in the wood compared to finish nailers, which can be an advantage when working with delicate or expensive wood.

Can I use a cordless nail gun for heavy-duty construction projects?

Cordless nail guns can be used for heavy-duty construction projects, but their performance and power may be limited compared to pneumatic nail guns. Cordless nail guns typically have a lower driving force and smaller magazine capacity, which may not be sufficient for larger or more demanding projects. However, newer cordless models with advanced battery technology and improved driving mechanisms can offer comparable performance to pneumatic nail guns, especially for smaller-scale projects or when mobility is a priority. Ultimately, the suitability of a cordless nail gun for heavy-duty construction projects will depend on the specific tool's features and the requirements of the project.

How do I clear a jammed nail or staple from a Makita nail gun?

To clear a jammed nail or staple from a Makita nail gun, first, disconnect the power source and remove any remaining nails or staples from the magazine. Then, use a tool or screwdriver to gently remove the jammed nail or staple. Be careful not to force or damage the nail gun's internal components. After clearing the jam, reinsert the nails or staples and test the nail gun before resuming work. Some Makita nail guns may have specific jam release mechanisms or instructions, so it's always a good idea to refer to the tool's manual for proper jam clearing procedures.
