Questions & Answers

A recent purchase I have encountered a problem with the trigger leaking if it is held halfway down. You can't push it all the way if you don't release it. This seems normal to me, is it not?

There must be no problem because I bought one of the AV50AP2 and it has done this from the beginning, though it was a problem at the time but it has been like that ever since,

Are you sure it was made ?

Taiwan made the ones I got. You should consider purchasing one made in Japan if you can find one. Still, it is important to note. You may just have to rely on good luck.

How does this gun perform when it comes to shooting 1 3/4" nails over the shingles while roofing?

It went very In the 1 1/4" and 1 3/4" sizes, I was impressed with its performance! Keep your engine oiled when it's time to use it!

HITACHI based off your sale page is NOT what I'm showing
3/5

It is misleading. The advertisement is for the HITACHI brand and product that I was looking for, not the new model under the name of Metabo. METABO, not HITACHI, should be advertised if you are sending out manuscripts. As far as I can tell, they have more of the original model than before. The reason I bought this nail gun, instead of purchasing one from another site called Metabo, is because I have the same needs. A VERY VERY VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED employee.

Slices of bread are not as good as whole wheat
5/5

To replace my old nail gun, I purchased this one The roof over my mother's house was damaged. It is not my job to use this nail gun every day, nor am I a professional roofer. As for the nail gun, I used the living crap out of it for two weeks and didn't encounter a single It was easy to adjust the nail depth by turning the nail depth gauge just below the front of the nail gun. In other reviews, it was suggested to put a few drops of oil after rolling each nail, so I did, and it kept working. As well as the swivel male fitting, I also purchased the Bostitch Premoil 4oz premium pneumatic oil at the same time. Thanks and God bless.

In the roofing game, Hitachi roofing guns are the best of the best, and I have used many of them in my career
5/5

These days, I mostly roof for friends and family on the weekends. My opinion of these guns is based on the fact that they are built to last, are easy to service and perform well regardless of the speed at which they are fired. Furthermore, these guns are easier to handle, more balanced, lighter weight, and I have used most of the other brands and this is the only one you will see me buying or recommending. It is better to spend the money on a one-time job because you will get it back when you sell it and will experience a lot fewer issues. It is not good to have tools that are difficult to use, even if they are supposed to do the job. The gun won't give you any problems, just spray it down with a little oil and let it breathe. The coil nail feeder feeds all coil nails, cheap or expensive, just so long as they drive them home and are finished. To all you roofers out there, this is probably the best gun you can find to skip along. It has the perfect bounce, weight and feedrate of any gun on the market.

Despite this, we have found nothing else to work so well during the winter
5/5

It is possible for Hitachi nailers to work in both hot and cold weather conditions. Hitachi nailers are very popular due to their performance in the winter and summer months. While I'm sure some nails can outperform Hitachi when it comes to the cold winter months, for us no nailer works as well as this one when it comes to Hitachi. A former soldier, Bostitch, had died at age 15 degrees Celsius. There is never a freezing issue with these tools. Despite this, though, there is something to be said for a good air dryer, but hitachi will always have a longer service life at colder temperatures just like DeWalt 18VNICD batteries will last far longer than Makita 18VLION batteries. Furthermore, since we work outside in temperatures below 0*C/32*F for five to six hours every day, this goes without saying We need tools that can withstand six months of the year.

There was no success with the purchase
3/5

Basically, I was hoping to purchase that one you see in the image which is a hitachi and I paid even more for it because it was the best brand but they sent me a Metabo instead, so I would not recommend purchasing from this website. Thank you, nice day.

I'm in love with That is a nice gun
5/5

I was considering the Hitachi and the Dewalt. I have a buddy who has a Dewalt. lighter and at first seemed to fit better in my hand, but after playing with it for two days there is It is much quieter and virtually recoils less when compared to the hitachi. This is well worth the additional cost. When you are only doing one roof, save the money, but with this roof you get the most for your money. The only complaint is that there is no case for it, but the Dewalt would have had the same problem.

Very well designed and runs
4/5

When it has been tuned and adjusted, the wire collated nailer is capable of sending most of the nails to the depth you need. About one out of fifty nails had to be hammered in during my last roofing project. It was rare for me to experience any double firings in rapid fire mode. In the grand scheme of things, this is quite good. Even though it can withstand temperatures ranging from below zero to more than 110 degrees Fahrenheit, I would guess that the steel wire collation is the reason it is so reliable in such a wide range of temperatures, since steel will not get soft nor brittle at this extreme temperature. It seems like the lubrication needs are My experience was that adding a few drops of oil every time I added a new roll of nails was the best solution. In contrast to a framing nailer review I recently did, there does not appear to be any lubrication It is related to other issues. The need for a constant air pressure also appears to be I found that I had best results when the PSI was 85. A range of 80 to A good air pump that is of a good size for anyone who is In a nutshell,.

That is excellent! I purchased it in 2014 and have been using it to this day
5/5

That is excellent! I bought the tool in 2014 and used it both last year and last week, it worked flawlessly every time, except that at the end of the roll it threw the last nail, but that's no big deal, I did about nine bundles and I was very pleased The roof was just my second time doing it and this made it really.
