Nailer is a special automatic tool designed for fast driving of nails. In a simple way, it is often called a battery nailer. Models of nailers differ in the type of drive: gas, pneumatic and electric. Gas and cordless tools provide freedom of movement, pneumatic tools have the lowest cost per shot.
The advantage of any nailer is the absence of the need for effort, the nails do not bend, even if they are hammered at an angle. It is convenient to work with most models (with the exception of wireframes) with one hand. The devices use hardware fastened on cassettes of 10 to 100 pieces and on tapes of up to 300 pieces.
Nailers are widely used in carpentry, construction and processes in which hardware is consumed in large volumes. Demanded for professional and amateur finishing work, where high speed is required.
Electric nailers
Electric models include corded and cordless nailers that work with pins, staples, nails and studs. Each device works with hardware of a certain range of sizes. The main problem of many models is spring settling, which occurs in different periods of operation and manifests itself in a decrease in shock power.
Pneumatic Models
Nailers with minimal cost per shot, light body, speed, power and affordability. Devices are undemanding to operating conditions and maintenance, maintainable, can work with hardware of any size. Operate on the energy of compressed air from the compressor.
1. "Zubr"
Network nailer designed to work with small hardware, nailing upholstery fabrics and wooden parts. The 2.5 meter cord provides sufficient mobility and allows you to work in an area of 1.5-2 square meters.
Safety is provided by the power key and protection against accidental shots. The nailer is powered by 220 V, there is an adjustment of the impact force. Works with nails, studs and staples.
The Zubr is not used for finishing, because a dent from the striker remains near the hammered nail. Supplied without carrying case. Disadvantage - at a temperature of +5 degrees and below, it startstan cord.
Punch and nails jam when working at a fast pace. You can fix this by turning off the device and parsing the "spout". Frequent jams are more difficult to eliminate and require the dismantling of plastic racks, with which the coil is attached to the housing.

On the nose of the cordless nailer there are indicators of jamming and overheating and teeth for angled shooting. Stuck fasteners are quickly and precisely removed. The tool comes with two lithium-ion batteries.
One cassette for 55 hardware is placed in the battery nailer magazine. The highest quality imported cassettes cost a lot of money, inexpensive D330 lead to deformation of the striker and loosening of the coil mounts.
After 15-20 thousand shot nails, coil play appears, which is easily eliminated without the use of a special tool. When using high-quality cassettes and hardware, the working life of the striker is 50 thousand operations. The average operating life of a battery nailer is 70,000 shots.
