    Answer This Question

    A:  I think it should work. Practice on a scrap piece first. You can adjust the power, if it doesn't go in far enough or to far.

    by|Sep 13, 2019

    A:  Yes I think it would do fine for that it will drive 2” nails all the way into a 2X 4 no problem

    by|Sep 16, 2019

      A:  I would not advise using the Brad nailer for the siding and trim I would use hot dipped galvanized nails. But the compressor is a great buy and the Brad nailer works great for light interior finish work.

        A:  Yes high cfm

              Answer This Question

              A:  First you have to figure out what size nails you need for your fence. Then find a nail gun that will fire the right size nails. Then make sure the specs of the compressor match the nail gun. Sometimes the nail gun will list the minimum compressor requirements.

              by|Jul 2, 2019

              A:  Yes it is capable running pretty much any nail gun you wish to use.

              by|Sep 12, 2019

                A:  I wouldn’t use nails for a fence I would buy a Dewalt 1/4” cordless driver from Home Dept and use torks head screws it will be stronger and last a lot longer

                by|Jul 7, 2019

                  A:  I use exterior screws. You would need a framing nailer with treated nails to prevent rust.

                    by|Jun 25, 2019

                      A:  U will not need any special fittings for the 3/8. All the ends are the same as far as plugging into compressor or any type of air tool.

                      by|Jun 8, 2019

                      A:  Yes, you can use the 3/8 with this air compressors and brad nailer. The 3/8 just makes it easier to wind up. You would also need to find a 3/8 NAP IM brass female plug to attach to your 3/8 air hoes.

                      by|Jun 8, 2019

                      A:  That hose should work fine with the same connections you will have more volume of air but the same amount of pressure as the 1/4” hose

                      by|Sep 16, 2019

                        A:  The size of the hose changes but the size of the connection remains the same. So no.

                        by|Jun 12, 2019

                          A:  You dont, the size of the hose changes, the size of the connections remain the same.

                                      by|May 26, 2019

                                      A:  I would think it would work fine as it has a 6gal. air tank. It works great with the nail gun in the package. The compressor had no problem keeping up with installing Crown Molding & Floor Trim.

                                      by|Apr 8, 2019

                                      A:  Yes has more than adequate pressure to fire a framing gun but may / may not be able to keep up with the demand if you shoot in succession rapidly.

                                      by|Jul 30, 2019

                                        A:  Yes, there is more than enough pressure for a framing gun.

                                        by|May 14, 2019

                                        A:  The manual states that DW45RN DeWALT framing nailer requires 3.7 CFM @ 80 psi. The DeWALT pancake compressor has a flow rate of 2.6 CFM @ 90 psi.
