Q:Can this nail a wood furring strip into concrete/cinderblock?
by|Apr 21, 2023
4 Answers
Answer This Question

A:  I would not recommend it.

by|Apr 22, 2023

    A:  No. The nails this uses are just thin finish nails. They would not penetrate concrete.

    by|Apr 22, 2023

      A:  No, this tool is not designed for concrete/cinderblock. Search "conceret nail gun"

      by|Apr 21, 2023

        A:  No, it should not be used to attach wood into concrete. From the manual: Do not discharge the fasteners into open air, concrete, stone, extremely hard woods, knots or any material too hard for the fastener to penetrate.

          A:  Nope. A nailer is a nailer. Stapler is a stapler.

                    I used this gun to secure oak stair treads to the sub floor and it worked beautifully! You could barely see the nail holes. This is the only job I have used it for.

                    Poor made
                    Unbelievable. The first nail i shot and the gun jammed, and the one i have before it was doing the same thing. It was more the time i wastetryong to clear it up after had jammed than what i actually get done in the job. Extremely frustrating. WONT BUY AGAIN

                      This is my second one. It is a good nail gun for the price. I just wish I was able to use the 3/4" nails. It seems that most guns only go as small as 1" anymore. But over all it's good
