Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Sure, in the consumer world, Hitachi means stereos and televisions. But in the world of construction, the company sits at the table with the heavy hitters. Hitachi's 18-gauge finish nailer has--for starters--an excellent grip. One thing we love in a nailer is a good grip. Basically, it's a safety issue: our hands sweat on the job, and we don't want to lose the handle on a gun and ping a buddy across the room. Some companies don't seem to get this, but Hitachi delivers, with a 360-degree rubber-strip grip that sticks to the hand without being bulky or interfering with the smooth firing mechanism. Because of its clever all-metal alloy construction, this nailer is remarkably lightweight, too: only 3.2 pounds. The exhaust port pivots 360 degrees, letting you keep dust to a minimum and oil off your work. We also like the side-loading magazine and jam release, which save your fingers the trouble of going where they'd rather not.

One feature we'd like to have seen is the two bumper plates on the front and back that are showcased on other Hitachi models. These plates really go a long way toward protecting a power tool from unnecessary wear and tear, and, in the end, they really do extend a tool's life by quite a bit. But such criticism is relatively minor. This finish nailer is a solid piece of work. --Michael Shilling

5.0 out of 5 stars Hitachi Brad Nailer, December 6, 1999
By 
This review is from: Hitachi NT50AE 3/4-Inch - 2-Inch, 18-Gauge Brad Nailer (Tools & Home Improvement)
Hitachi's 18ga. brad nailer is the best on the market. It handles short to long and sets the heads on all of them even in 2" oak. Our company has used Bostich (takes 2 to handle from 5/8 to 2" brads) previous and they are okay but not as good as this one. Excellent for installing casing, base and crown moldings plus those little tacking jobs.

5.0 out of 5 stars The boss when it comes to Brad nailers!, November 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Hitachi NT50AE 3/4-Inch - 2-Inch, 18-Gauge Brad Nailer (Tools & Home Improvement)
Plenty of power and easy to get into tight places. The Hitachi brad nailer takes most everyones brads, so you can always get nails for it. This tool has everything you need in a BRAD nailer and comes with a great case.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't beat this one !, November 11, 2000

This review is from: Hitachi NT50AE 3/4-Inch - 2-Inch, 18-Gauge Brad Nailer (Tools & Home Improvement)
I own several Hitachi nail guns. I purchased this model about a year ago. I've used it in my cabinet shop to build out numerous jobs. It has never jammed! It's powerful and light weight. I had previously purchased a porter cable but it only fired up to 1 1/4 ". I don't even touch that one anymore. you will never regret buying this one.
