Milwaukee has introduced the second generation of their 15 and 16 Gauge Angled Finish Nailers, setting a new benchmark for performance and efficiency in finishing projects. These tools are designed to deliver consistently clean nail holes and are compatible with Milwaukee’s M18 REDLITHIUM batteries, eliminating the need for compressors and hoses typically required for pneumatic tools.
Key Features
Versatile Applications
Clean Nail Holes: These nailers are designed to consistently sink nails in both hard and soft woods, making them ideal for a wide range of finishing applications.
Material Compatibility: Perfect for applying materials like trim, crown molding, baseboards, cabinets, chair rails, hardwood flooring, and more.
Firing Modes
Sequential and Contact Actuation: Users can choose between sequential firing (preferred for precision) or contact actuation (ideal for faster, larger applications) based on their project needs.
Tool-Free Jam Clearance
- The new nailers feature a tool-free jam-clearing latch, ensuring consistent firing throughout your project and minimizing downtime.
Nitrogen Air Spring Mechanism
Best-in-Class Performance: The nitrogen air spring mechanism delivers the performance, durability, and ergonomics of pneumatic tools without the need for air compressors or hoses.
Efficient Firing: The air spring mechanism uses an inner and outer cylinder separated by nitrogen gas, creating constant pressure for quick activation. This eliminates ramp-up time between uses, making contact firing in larger applications much quicker.
High Efficiency: These nailers can drive 750 nails per charge and 3 nails per second, maximizing efficiency on the jobsite.
Design Improvements
Compact Size
- Compared to the Gen 1 model, the Gen 2 finish nailers are slightly more compact, making them easier to use in tight spaces and reducing fatigue during repeated use.
- The angle of the battery and magazine lock has been adjusted for better usability, and the placement of the belt hook has been improved for added convenience.
Improved Line of Sight
- The slimmer design of the Gen 2 model provides a better line of sight, paired with a built-in LED work light for the most precise finish nailing possible.
