Bostitch N62FNK-2 1-Inch to 2-1 2-Inch 15-Gauge Angled Finish Nailer
Product Review The first time you pick up the Bostitch N62FNK-2, you might wonder if such a lightweight finish nailer (it weighs just 3.8 pounds, the lightest in its class) can really get the job done. But once you pull the trigger and feel the 400 in./lbs. of driving power at your fingertips, those doubts will disappear and you'll wonder how you ever did without it before. Rugged and sturdy enough for virtually any application, the N62FNK-2 delivers fast, clean, accurate results using finish nails from 1 to 2-1/2 inches in length. An oil-free engine means no unsightly stains on your work--a definite plus--and no need for messy lubrication, an even bigger positive. Tool-free maintenance and depth control only add to the allure. --Carl Thress Manufacturer Description This finish nail driver comes in a magnesium housing, making it durable although it weighs only 3.8 pounds--the lightest angled finish nailer available. The tool's oil-free engine requires no lubrication and cannot stain work surfaces. It features 400 in./lbs. of driving power--the highest power-to-weight ratio available. Drives BFN-style finish nails from 1 to 2-1/2 inches long. Tool-free removable magazine allows easy jam clearing and cleaning. Inline magazine provides greater accuracy. Also features tool-free depth control for quick countersinking adjustments and tool-free adjustable exhaust for directing airflow. Kit includes no-mar tip, 1,000 fasteners, and carrying case. Reader Reviews Some reviewers said their N62FNK jammed and downrated the tool as a result. Their tool's problem may be the brand of nails being used. I own the previous version of this nailer (N60FN) and after purchasing B&C nails from Amazon, the gun started to jam frequently. The problem was, the B&C nail strips were glued at a slightly different angle than the gun required. I noticed this when the nosepiece was opened to clear the jam, and found that the next nail was not fully flush with the front of the gun (either the nail head or pointed end was too far back -- don't remember which). I loaded some Bostitch brand nails and the "next nail" was perfectly flush with the front of the gun. If your Bostitch nailer jams, lay a nailstrip of what you are using next to a nailstrip of the Bostitch brand nails sold for this gun. (Alternatively, open the nosetip to see if the next nail's head and pointed end are perfectly flush with the nose piece.) If the two nailstrips are not at the identical angle, switch to Bostitch nails. After changing exclusively to Bostitch brand nails, my N60FN didn't jam again. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
