The product can be easily adjusted to handle fastener lengths from 1 to 2 inches with just the click of a button.

Coil Nailer
Senco
The SNC63LDXP 15-degree, 2 3/8-inch to 2 1/2-inch coil nailer is a highly specialized fastening system designed to only install continuous structural foam insulation panels. The driver blade on the tool extends about 1-inch beyond the safety element in order to drive the nail through the foam and directly into the OSB backer and ultimately, securely fastening into the framing members. A safety foot guide on the fastener ensures proper alignment and a large diameter base helps reduce damage to the foam surface when fasteners are driven. For more information, visit senco.com.
Nose Brad Nailer
Grip-Rite
The company has updated its 18 Gauge Narrow Nose Brad Nailer. Like all of the company’s finish nailers, the GRTBN200N includes metal internal parts for long term durability. Externally, several improvements have been made: the nose was tapered to improve line of sight and to allow the tool to get into tighter locations. A dry-fire lockout was incorporated so the user will never leave any unnecessary marks while installing trim. A swivel plug, selectable trigger and belt hook were also included, making it the right tool to complement Grip-Rite’s complete line of finish nails packaged in convenient 1,000 count belt clips.
