The Milwaukee nail gun UK catalogue feature a wide range of nailer options, including framing, finish and palm nailers to suit every stage of every project. From heavy-duty structural tasks through to precision finishing jobs, the Milwaukee M12 and M18 nail gun range has you covered. What's more, all M12 and M18 nail guns are compatible with their wider namesake battery ranges for complete ease of use across the entire Milwaukee range. Why choose SGS for you Milwaukee M18 nail gun? The aluminum body is the lightest we considered, weighing just 1 pound. There is no rubber grip, but the compact size can be appealing to those with smaller hands. It drives nails from 6D to 16D (2 to 3½ inches), and it has a magnetic tip to keep them in place. Although air consumption is not stated, any compressor delivering 90 psi will work fine. To make sure we had up-to-date information, the BobVila team also researched all the leading palm nailer manufacturers. Cordless palm nailers, for example, are an important recent development. Although a palm nailer is not quite as fast as other types of powered nailers, it has some clear advantages over most other types. An aluminum body helps keep weight down, but palm nailers can still weigh anywhere from around 1 pound to more than 3 pounds. That doesn’t sound like a big deal, but even a little extra weight will make a difference if the tool is used for long periods, particularly if working overhead.

Palm nailers are also lighter than most alternatives, meaning they are comfortable to use for longer periods and cause less fatigue. Because they fit into the palm of the hand, these tools are more maneuverable, and thus easier to use at awkward angles. At 59 decibels, the compressor is one of the quieter models and is relatively light at 25.2 pounds. It will supply air at up to 125 psi, so it could be used for a variety of other nailers and pneumatic tools.Whether you’re an experienced professional looking to stay up to speed or a newcomer just getting started with power tools, it’s good to get professional advice on which you can rely. We’ve put together several in-depth how-to and product guides to help you to make the most of your equipment: At first glance, there might be some concern that the 12-volt Milwaukee palm nailer would be underpowered when compared with pneumatic tools. Milwaukee reassures potential buyers by quoting an impact rate of 2,700 blows per minute, which compares favorably with several midrange air tools. Also, similar to those rivals, it will drive nails from 6D to 16D (2 to 3½ inches), and the tip is magnetic.

The majority of palm nailers are pneumatic, so they need an air compressor to drive them. Specifications for power are given in pounds per square inch (psi) and cubic feet per minute (cfm). The actual air pressure generated by the compressor is the psi, and cfm is the volume of air. For those who want the palm nailer’s ability to get into tight spaces but are unlikely to use the tool often, the 3Plus offers a low-cost solution that sacrifices little in terms of performance or features. Palm nailers are light, compact, highly maneuverable, and easy to use. Just load a nail into the front, position it, apply pressure to activate the hammer action, and drive the nail home. Though they don’t have the speed of a finish, framing, or roofing nailer, they will go into tight spaces where those big tools can’t reach. They are usually lighter and therefore less tiring to use, too.Cordless palm nailers are a battery-powered alternative. With no need for an air hose or cord, a battery palm nailer offers great freedom of movement. However, the battery does make them heavier and bulkier than pneumatic palm nailer models. Currently, cordless models are rare. Grip The Powernail PowerPalm nailer has been designed specifically for laying hardwood and engineered (combined hardwood and plywood) tongue-and-groove flooring. It has the power to drive the L- and T-shaped cleats (floor nails) through these tough materials and into joists or subfloors. As nails get longer, the diameter of the head also increases. Some palm nailers have a useful magnetic tip to hold the nail in place. Others have interchangeable heads for different diameters. A palm nailer is much more compact, meaning it will fit into spaces where standard nail guns can’t go. Rather than depth adjustment, Bostitch provides three different-size nosepieces. These combine with the company’s Smart Point technology, adjusting impact power as required and thus reducing surface damage. Despite the high performance, air consumption is within the range of most small compressors at 70 to 100 psi.
