Will this gun fire a full .162 x 3 &frac12; common nail?

The manual states that it will drive .162 dia x 3 1/2 inch nails. I have been using .131 dia x 3 1/4 nails and they work fine.

This nailer only shoots 15.5 or 16 gauge nails. I used 16 gauge nails to install my 5/8 bamboo. Worked great.

No. This is an 18 gauge finish nail gun. Up to 2" nails. Most fences need a much larger nail.

I would go with a larger 18 gauge nailer. I owned this gun for a little less than a year before it gave up and died. I wouldn't buy it again.

Sounds like you need to exchange it. I haven't had that problem with mine. I have found that this gun works best with 1 1/4" nails. Anything longer and it starts having problems sinking nails.

It should as long as they are siding nails and not the roofing nails with the larger head. I use mostly 2 inch nails with mine. The only problem I had is that it does jam every once in a while. I found that the jamming has more to do with the coiled nails being tangled (tip of the nail gets caught behind the wire coil for the next inside coil) and less to do with the gun. It also seemed to drive the nail in farther if you bump shoot instead of trying to press the safety tip in and holding it still.

as long as you are not in a tight corner you should have no problem. Gun is great. Used for garage shelving, shed and porch extension. No problems. Only issue is that they do not sell the nails at your local hardware stores or at HD or Lowes. Need to order online. Not a bad deal as long as you have what you need. If you run out, you wait until the mail comes.

Not sure what your question is.This gun will rivet up to 1/4" rivets and it works like a charm!

It is designed to fire one nail at the time, but the flaw in this gun is that is you don't apply enough pressure on the gun (hence when you hand is getting tired) the recoil will cause the gun to fire two nails. As for depth of the nail, i.e., countersunk, there is a dial next to the trigger that you can set the depth of the nail.

most any compresser with 100 psi will run this gun but its a finish nailer . I would recommend a framing nailer for your job.

I have this 18-Gauge pneumatic nail gun and I've used a 3 gallon air compressor without any issue. I believe as long as you can achieve 80psi you should be fine, I have my compressor set to 80psi and I'm able to bury 2 inch nails with no problem.

Yes it will shoot the ring shank , but hard on the gun,.....they just started the nail and gas combo, along with new gun ...I would think they are marketing most common nails

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

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

Use standard nails for nail guns from any hardware supplier... nothing special. I like this gun.

Yes it will. Try to keep the battery fully charged..It tends to slow down when nailing.

Yes, you can set the gun to fire 1 nail at a timeNo, there is no guide for nail placementIts been a great siding nail gun
