Pneumatic Fastening for Fast, Accurate Detail Work
Detail work comes in many shapes and sizes and requires you to use different types of materials. Choosing the right tool for each job is an essential part of making certain your finished products look their best. That's why this kit sets you up with three distinct pneumatic fastening tools.

Each of these well-balanced tools is designed to sit neatly in your hand, letting you maintain control and precision. And each offers a wide range of simple, intuitive features, from no-mar tips that protect your work surface to tool-free adjustable exhaust systems that direct air away from your face to keep you comfortable while you work.

Three Dependable Tools for Handling Tough Jobs
The included 16-Gauge Straight Finish Nailer offers a convenient, adjustable depth guide and a quick-release nose for fast jam clearing. It is designed for handling nails 1 to 2-1/2 inches long, making it a great pick for moldings and door and window casing applications. The nailer provides 300 in./lbs. of driving power, a magazine capacity of 100 nails, and weighs in at four pounds.

Ideal for everything from staircases to cabinetry applications, the included 18-Gauge Brad Nailer makes use of the adjustable depth guide to set nails to desired depths quickly and conveniently. Behind its fast, reliable performance is the ability to deliver 145 in./lbs. of driving power. This nailer handles 18-gauge brads from 5/8 to 2 inches and weighs just 2.7 pounds.

Also included in the kit is the 18-Gauge Narrow Crown Finish Stapler, because whether you're working with cabinetry, floor underlayment, or upholstering furniture, a stapler is the right tool for the job. This stapler utilizes 135 in./lbs. of drive power to secure 7/32-inch narrow crown staples, features a bottom-load magazine for fast loading and easy jam clearing, and weighs 2.6 pounds.

All three of these tools offer a magazine capacity of 100 fasteners, so you don't constantly have to stop and reload, and each one is backed by a manufacturer's 7 year limited warranty.

Durable Six-Gallon Oil-Free Compressor
Built to keep your tools running smoothly and reliably, the 2.0 HP (Peak) Compressor delivers 2.8 CFM at 90 PSI with a maximum operating pressure of 150 PSI for improved tool performance. This compressor's oil-free pump design requires less maintenance than traditional models, and its large, six-gallon reserve tank includes a ball-type drain valve for easy drainage at the end of each day. It also employs an impact-resistant composite shroud to protect important gauges from job-site damage.

Heavy-Duty Motor Operates Smoothly and Quietly
The compressor's 2.0 HP (Peak), 1.5 HP running motor features easy startup and an expert design that draws 12 Amps without tripping your circuit breakers, so work can be done hassle-free. And the compressor's operation acoustics run at a quiet 72 dBA, making it ideal for use in smaller or more populated areas. The compressor is backed by a 1 year warranty.

Unlike kits that leave you guessing what accessories you need to get started, this tool and compressor combo comes with a heavy-duty airline that includes the necessary fittings, along with 3,000 appropriate fasteners and a canvas case to help you keep everything organized.

4.0 out of 5 stars fantastic conbo, February 20, 2009

JB "work smarter not harder..." (NEW YORK CITY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bostitch CPACK300 3-Tool and Compressor Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)

I would prefer to give this product 4.5 stars instead of 5

The CPACK300 has been great for my recent remodelling jobs. Compared to the cp3, the kit remains the same except for the change in compressor. From my experience with both kits, the CPack300 has a far more ergonomic & jobsite friendly design. As other have pointed out for the CP3, the compressor handle was poorly designed & weight and size has been reduced to produce the cpack300 compressor. It's a tad more powerful at 40 psi & so much easier to lug around. Guages are protected by a rubber rims & the compressor is as compact as can be, the design is queter than the previous design & queter that similar porter cable designs.(it'll still wake you up in the middle of the night if you keep it plugged in next to you )

All guns require a bit of oil, but work flawlessly. Bostich makes great products made for a lifetime & i'm sure this is no different. The guns have never jammed, and work fine with 3rd party nails, or brads... after about 2000 nails, i have yet to have a jam. The design is great, the guns fire comparatively quiet & have the dual safety feature.

The no mar tips are of hard plastic & in my opinion inferrior to the porter cable guns i've used prior to purchasing this combo. I do appreciate the comprenhsive kit that is included. basically you get a quality stanley tool bag, about $25 worth of nails, staples, and brads.
The only deduction i'd give is to the cheap pvc air hose included, i guess this is true with all pvc produces... it maintains its rigitity & it maye be tough going around corners, causing the user to tug it along. Also it doesn't wind as well as rubber hoses, I'm sure i'll be upgrading the hose once it shows its age.

The whole kit is probably 50 lbs total & take a very small footprint when organize.


So far the whole kit is fantastic for the price i paid, about $270 after taxes. It's on par with more expensive kits & it give you alot for the money, including an impressive 7 yr warranty on the guns.
I've laid down about 1500 square ft of hardwood between this bostich & a porter cable combo that i borrowed off a friend. nailed in 150 ft of molding & fixed all sort of problems through out my home. I'd recommend this kit to anyone over the CP3 kit for anyone looking for a dependable nailer/compressor combo. CP3 kit has the inferior compressor

1.0 out of 5 stars Very poor design and reliability, July 4, 2011

H. Ge - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Bostitch CPACK300 3-Tool and Compressor Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)

I've been an owner of this combo for three years now. I bought it from Lowes for some light duty around the house fix ups. Tasks like pump car tires, patching up little pieces here and there. I did use it to built a window seat last year. The unit at first looked solid. The 3 tools that came with the combo is also well built. Boy, when it worked, I love the feeling of pulling the trigger rather than pounding nails all day long. I took very good care of this tool. Always clean it up and drop the pressure to about 20psi before storing it away after each use. And I never left it outside or left it fully pressurized overnight.

Last week I started a new project to install some stair treads. Took it out the garage and adjusted the pressure to 90psi for the brad nailer. The tool worked for a few shots, then suddenly, the nailer just went silent. Checked the pressure, and found that the tank pressure is still at 140 psi, but the outlet pressure just went to zero. I checked the compressor, and found that the pressure regulator knob has stripped. Apparently the threading on the knob is made of plastic. So even with very light usage, a failure on this part is bound to happen.

Then last weekend, I went to both Lowes and HD in my area shopping for another compressor in order to finish my project. Out of curiosity, I checked the Bostitch combos that was on display. Out of the two displays Lowes had, both had stipped pressure knob.

So to the potential buyers out there, beware of this flawed tool. A $300 compressor that uses a cheap plastic pressure regulator that's guaranteed to strip. So do your homework before you buy. Go to Lowes or Homedepot, and check out the floor displays that they have. Chances are, you will see that the plastic knob (the red knob in the front) on the floor model are all stipped, just from people looking at it and turning it a few times.

5.0 out of 5 stars As solid as the old one.., February 15, 2009

Mike (Lee, Ma) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bostitch CPACK300 3-Tool and Compressor Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)

I bought the old Bostitch combo kit several years ago and finally needed to buy a new one. I was pleasantly surprised with the upgrades. The guns are lighter and the compressor is more compact and easier to carry than the old Bostitch compressor. This kit is great for anyone who needs a reliable compressor and a few trim nailers.
