What is the fuel cell for. Does this take standard nails or specialty nails.

Do a little research on the gun and you'll have a better idea of the entire system. The fuel is the combustible that explodes in the chamber to drive the piston that sends the nail home. The battery provides ignition and runs a small fan to evacuate the spent gasses (maybe more too). Any standard 30* paper tape nails will work.

The fuel cell is what propels the nail into the board. One cell can drive in approximately 1000 nails. Takes special nails that Paslode sells. Each box of nails come with a fuel cell.
1352530
The fuel cell contains gas that is ignited by a small combustion chamber by a spark which is generated with the aid of the motor powered by a lithium battery and there by driving the nail home. This gun takes 30 degree strip nails which should be sold by most home centers and timber yards. There are slightly cheaper generic versions of these Paslode nails available. Availability may vary from region to region.

fuel cell provide gas need to propell driving pin..paslode nails are paper collated...dont know if another brand paper or wire collated would work...regular commons wouldnt

Bill, the fuel cell is what propels the nails from the gun, sort of like "gunpowder" only a lot more precise and efficient. When you press the trigger a small spark ignites a tiny amount of the propane from the fuel cell and compresses the cylinder thus firing the nail. Yes, you must use Paslode nails, sold in several different lengths and styles for different tasks. Usually both nails and fuel cells are sold together so you always have enough of each to do the job. Excellent professional tool, highly recommended. Please be extra careful and wear safety equipment as directed. Jim

The fuel cell is what drives the nail. The battery ignites the fuel which drives the nail. The only nails I have used are the Paslode nails that come with a fuel cell. The nail gun will not work without the fuel cell.

It works great with regular polish. Just remove it with nail polish remover like you would regular nail polish

Mine didnt use any nails at all. It was dead on arrival. I had to go rent one to complete my project.

I cant I only rated it. I am not the seller. You can by the stove here or at Dicks, the same way with the fuel cell. Dicks has a few different ones. I like the one they have that is all included in a case that holds the fuel and stove. But it is quite pricey. I will stick with mine as you can put them in separate pockets of your back pack.

Any retailer that carries them will have the fuel cells. Nothing wrong with using charcoal and wood. At most hardware stores you can get those firestarters. The fuel cells seem to be sawdust with wax as a binder.

yes, but you may get just a couple of nails out before it won't work, not enough air tank space. need more tank mass for this.

Both of these are framing nailers which will take 3 1/2" nails. Both are quality nailers for framing work. The FR350B only uses round headed nails. The FC350B uses both round and clipped head nails. The paper holding the clipped head nails in a strip causes less problems than the plastic which holds the round headed nail strips. The FC350B is more versatile. I own the FC350B nailer and love it. It's light & easy to use. I'd recommend the FC350B (& not just because I own it.)

Yes we do sell it just not on Amazon. The correct fuel cell number is 816005. As a Paslode dealer that is the number they give us to re-order it. It is for use in a CF325 Cordless Framing Nailer. Maybe that is why you are having a hard time finding it. Any questions feel free to call us 800-714-4440 ext. 130

it means it uses compressed air to shoot the nails. you need an air compressor to run it.

I would like to try and answer this question but the question does not make sense. Are you asking about what kind of compressor you should buy to power the pin nailer?
1039685
Yes, just normal nail polish remover, for this is a normal top coat... It just dries a lot faster! It does NOT damage your nails :).

you can use both -the nails are very small - you can find the espefifiction on your manual

it is powered through an air compressor which needs to plugged into an electrical outlet. So you will need an air compressor with hose to attach to the nail gun . . . I read a few reviews and found this information.

I don't know the specific requirements for the compressor. I use my nailer with a small 6 gallon Porter-Cable portable air compressor and it works great. This is an excellent tool that has given me good service. I hope this helps.

i'm no expert, but from what i know a brad nail looks like a "regular" nail only is made from a thinner wire and has a smaller head. It does not have a U shape like a staple does. A nail gun can use other types of nails, like finish nails which are heavier gauge and have a larger head and most probably you have to putty the holes...I hope this helps, but as i said i'm no expert :)

It does it if the nails aren't put in correctly or to big. Sometimes just reconnecting to the compressor helps

Absolutely not. Paslode makes excellent cordless nailers that uses a butane-like fuel cell and a rechargeable battery to shoot brads and nails with no cords or compressors. I have their 18 gauge brad nailer and it's great for my needs (professional). I do a lot of small jobs out of my van and don't have the room to carry a compressor and hose on a daily basis. Not cheap, though.I believe DeWalt still makes an 18 gauge cordless brad nailer, though I've never used one.
