Nail guns from Sydney Tools
Choosing a Nail Gun
When you need to fit a nail then you reach for a hammer. There's even
a convenient claw lift on the end of it that removes or corrects. But when
you need to fit a lot of nails in the shortest time you will then reach for
a nail gun. A quality nail gun will fit thousands of nails daily with
precision and accuracy assuring a fast outcome.
Sydney Tools Industrial is happy to provide the information and service
required when buying a nail gun that best suits you.
Electric Power Nail Guns
There are 2 basic different types of electric nail guns used today. They are
determined by the type of magazine style where the nails are held & the types
of nails that are used.
- Coil Nail Guns - These nail guns use long type nails joined with wire threads
& flexibly stringed. These type nails are stored in a magazine (casing) in
the nail gun. The magazine is there to roll the nails, allowing a maximum of
350 nails to be in the nail gun at a time.
- Stick Nail Guns - These nail guns take long thinner nails & sit in a
magazine (case) within the body of the Nail Gun. These nails are collated -
which means are held together by either plastic, paper or thin type wire. These
nails can vary in length from 20mm to 40mm size nails.
Different Types of Applications
Electric nail guns can be used in any type of construction work. Some models are
used in small, tight confined spaces & others are larger sized and are used for
high power, high density spaces.
- Framing Nail Guns - Are designed for fastening larger material & are commonly used in high volume applications.
- Finishing Nail Guns - Are commonly used in cabinet fit outs, furniture, molding & trimming applications and are generally lighter weight.
- Bradders, Tackers & Staple Guns - These are commonly used is precision type work & are also generally lighter weight for increased comfort.
- Roofing Nail Guns - Are obviously designed for roofing applications.
Air Nailer Guns
Also known as Pneumatic Nails Guns. These are the most common nail guns used in
all industries. They are attatched to an air compressor through a hose & fitting.
When the nail is fired a valve opens in the nail gun and air then fills the cylinder.
The piston in the cylinder moves at a rapid pace downwards, releasing the nail into
the material. Automatically the nail gun has re-loaded for its next hit.
When purchasing an air compressor for a nail gun you must check the specifications on
the nail gun including PSI & CFM (meaning power). The air compressor must be the
same size as the PSI & CFM (power) or larger. Do not buy a smaller air compressor
because than you will be due for a new one too often.
Cordless GAS Nail Guns
Gas Guns
The most modernized Gas Gun. Recently invented afew years ago. These tools are racing
out the door. The same power ratio as any Air Nail Gun but without the extra hoses &
Air Compressor. Abit more expensive but worth its deed. These nails guns use flammable
gas to drive the nails into the material.
Fuel Cells
Disposable gas canisters or Fuel Cells as shown above can be purchased in value packs
and are inserted into the Gas Gun. The gas allows the nail to explode dispensing the nail.
These nail guns must be cleaned every time after application (just a simple wipe) to keep
them operational.
Gas nail guns are commonly used in hard to get - tight spaces, less volume nailing
applications & high construction places where there is no electricity.
Nails & Staples
Nails used for nail guns are formed in 3 ways - formed buy wire, glue or paper. A lot come
as clipped heads - which allows nails to be fired along side each other in a straight line.
Others are secured by strands of long bendable wire. All include a layer of adhesive. This
is a safety feature for when the material being fired at becomes heated up the lubricated
adhesive will cool it down.
All nail guns require one specific type nails. This will be illustrated when purchasing
or usually marked on the tool. The sizes of the nail will vary depending on how large you
choose to purchase the nail gun
