Answer This Question

A:  This is a brad nailer for Brad nails. Does not shoot finishing nails bur brads will work depending on what you want to use it for. It's been a great nailer for me over the past couple years.

        A:  Yes . One or two drops of pneumatic gun oil . It should come with the nailer . 

        by|May 4, 2023

          A:  Yes, but just a drop or two............... it should have been stated in the owners manual.

                A:  The manual says no.  I haven’t oiled it and have not had any issues with it.

                by|May 5, 2023

                  A:  No, the manual states, these nail guns are designed to be operated without adding oil. Doing so will cause issue with the firing mechanism over time. This is different than a lot of other guns so that is why there is confusion out there.

                      Q:Do I need to use only Porter cable nails? I have a box of Senco 2 inch 18 gauge nails (A202009). Can these Senco nails be used in this nail gun. Or other brands.

                      Answer This Question

                      A:  Any brand of nails will work as long as they are the correct Guage.

                      by|Apr 4, 2023

                        A:  The manual specifies a type and size. Try the different ones and see if they work but don't over do it. Try a small quantity.

                        by|Feb 12, 2023

                          A:  As long as the nails meet the compatibility specifications, it is not necessary to use PORTER-CABLE specific nails.

                          by|Feb 11, 2023

                            A:  I have used other brands but I cannot use galvanized brads of another brand.

                                This product advertised as being: "The kit includes nails of 1-1/4 in., carrying case, removable non-marring nose tip and owner's manual." The nails were not in the kit, even though case was still sealed in plastic shrink wrap. Had to drive back 20+ miles to get the brad nails. That made this purchase not a value. If they cannot get the package correct, makes me wonder about the quality of this product overall.

                                  Used maybe 10 times
                                  Bought my Porter Cable BN200B a number about 5 years ago and may have used it 10 time. Went to use it this morning and after a couple of nail shot it wouldn’t not shoot any more. Decided to open it up and see what went wrong and this is what I found. See pictures. If this is what’s called Long Last. I got a Bostitch framing nailer that I have had for over 20 year. Guess it time to put a Bostitch Brad Nailer on my to but took list.

                                    Lightweight, no jams, but leaks air
                                    I’ve had this finish nailer for almost a year. It is my go to nailer for trim work and light nailing. I use it a lot. Pros: Very lightweight, easy load, jam free to date, powerful, easy adjust depth, belt hook is quite handy, (1 year, 5,000+ fires, ON JAMS.) FYI, I have used only Porter Cable brand brads, but in every length this gun will fire. Cons: Black trigger was missing right out of the box. (For rapid fire) I don’t use this feature so I didn’t pursue acquiring one. However I feel it is worth mentioning.. After about two months the gun began to leak air and oil somewhere around the black star cap above the hose fitting. It is NOT leaking from the fitting itself. Many parts on this gun are plastic to obtain the lightweight. Hose fitting threads are plastic. I noticed this right away and was careful to tape the threads lightly and not over tighten and yet a crack near this star cap developed. It’s a small leak enough to make the compressor kick on every 5 minutes or so. I’m here to file a warranty service as the year is just about to expire and figured I would write this review while I wait for their switchboard to open at 8:00am. I would buy this gun again. Simply for the fact I have not had a single jam. Jams are the biggest deal breaker for me. Jams waste time. Time costs money.
