do paslode nails work in dewalt and hitachi framing guns

I have three Dewalt clipped head framers. I put about 90-100 thousand paslode nails through them every year. Love the paper clips because there is no shrapnel and they hold up in the weather!! I have also put them through my senco and they work well there also.

As far as I know any brand 18 guage brad nails will work, I have used 3 different kinds and had no issues, porta cable are the cheapest and work just fine

no, my experience has been the fence panels need thicker nails than the nailer uses. nails need larger heads. so brad nailer is unsuitable for fence panels

This nailer is not designed for that type of project. The nails are only a pin not thicker that a sawing needle. You need a framing nailer like: Hitachi NR90AE(S) 3-1/2-Inch Full-Head Framing Strip

The nail gun would work, but the brads wouldn't be strong enough. Fences can take quite a battering and be subjected to large forces (wind, earthquake, people etc). I wouldn't use 18 guage brads for this. In fact I wouldn't use finishing nails either - framing nails would be the better option and they should be galvanised or stainless.

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

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.

It definitely WILL shoot 5/8" 18 gauge brad nails. I had a variety pack of nails including 100 5/8" nails which I shot through my Wen nailer with no problems and no malfunctions. I just received an order of 5000 Dewalt 5/8" brad nails which I use to attach miniature cedar roofing shakes (made from cedar shims) to my birdhouses. Have not had any problems so far.

I just used 5/8" brad nail by accident and they worked fine. I didn't even realize it till after. I only used about 8 though. I would still like to see what Wen says.

The finish nailer has enough power but I don't think that the nail head would be sufficient for framing... Porter cable model #FC350B might be more capable for what you're looking to do.

Yes my numax framing nailer has work perfectly. Couple drops of air tool oil daily is good maintenance. Would recommend to anyone.

I don't have experience with finishing or framing nails, but this nail gun handles only nails with slim tops. Thus, it would be unlikely to hold a board in place against forces trying to dislodge it. This Dewalt gun might work if the only requirement is to position a board without regard to holding it in place.

Are they Paslode nails? You could try them. However, Refer to the Owners Manual (you can find a pdf at Paslode.com). Paslode makes a full head (Round Top) nails 2" TO 3 1/4" for this nailer. You must have another brand of nails. I've never had a call for anything shorter than 2" galv. ring shanks, which are used for wood fencing.

Hi, The Hitachi NR 90AD (earlier model of ADPR) is designed to shoot 31-34 Degree Clipped Head Paper tape framing nails. This is what we use the gun for most of the time (we buy grip-rite and generic brands of clipped heads). Yes, this gun will shoot both types of (paper tape) nails. Unfortunately, code calls for round head nails to be used for sheer walls. To get around this, several nail manufacturers have figured out how to make a 'offset full round head paper tape' nail which will fire through most clipped head nailers. Due to limitations of the full round head, these nails are almost exclusively 30 degree, but usually have no problem firing in 31-34 degree nailers. Home depot sells a Porter Cable nailer which specifies it shoots both kinds. Grip rite specs say they will shoot in most clipped head guns. Hope this helps, Andrew

I used Bostitch 3 1/4 X 0.120 28 degree wire weld framing nails which I purchased from Home Depot or Lowes. The magazine holds 100 nails, which helps reduce the number of times you need to stop and reload. I probably used about 1500 nails and never had any problems. I suspect other 28 degree wire weld nails would also work, but the local store carried Bostitch so I used them.

Yes, but you need to remove the guide rail in the magazine to load 16D/.162 nails. No tools required but see your manual for the particulars.
