Product Summary

The Milwaukee® M18 FUEL™ Cordless 18 Gauge Brad Nailer delivers peak productivity, providing excellent nailing performance without the hassle of a compressor and hose. Using a nitrogen air spring mechanism, the finish nailer consistently sinks nails to the proper depth in hard and soft woods while leaving clean nail holes matching the head of the nail. The combination of Milwaukee's Powerstate™ brushless motor and Redlink Plus™ Intelligence delivers unmatched fire rate with zero ramp-up time for all-day efficiency. The cordless brad nailer operates using Milwaukee's M18™ RedLithium™ batteries (not included) and sealed compressed nitrogen to drive each nail, eliminating the cost of gas cartridges and associated maintenance. The 18 gauge nailer is compact and lightweight, providing unmatched access into tight spaces and limiting fatigue. The M18 FUEL™ 18 gauge brad nailer delivers pneumatic performance that professional carpenters and remodelers expect with the freedom and convenience of cordless.

SAVE MONEY by replacing or adding specific tools that work with the M18 RedLithium™ Lithium-Ion battery and charger you already own. The Milwaukee M18 bare tool system lets you choose the tool you need to get the job done -- without buying a complete kit. Add a Milwaukee bare tool to your M18 cordless system today.
