Replacing the traditional hammer, pneumatic nailers allow you to significantly speed up the time taken to drive nails into a range of materials, such as steel, wood, metal and concrete. Our comprehensive range of pneumatic nail guns allow you to work with nails as short as 10mm, all the way up to nails as long as 160mm and are available in both straight nailer and angled nailer variations, with safety features such as a sequential trigger or contact trigger. Manufactured by brands such as Ace & K, BeA, Fasco, KMR, MAX, Metabo HPT, Montana, Omer, Primatech, Senco and Tacwise, we supply first fix nailers, such as framing nailers, flooring nailers, roofing nailers, T nailers, SCRAIL nailers and positive placement joist hanger nailers, in either coil nailer or strip nailer forms, for use in heavy duty structural applications and second fix nailers such as 23 gauge, 21 gauge, 18 gauge, 16 gauge and 15 gauge finish nailers, brad nailers, micro brad nailers and pinners, for finish and trim applications.
Air nailers are compressed-air powered fastening tools designed to drive nails quickly and consistently into materials such as timber, decking, roofing boards, fencing and structural frames. They significantly increase speed and accuracy compared to traditional hammering.
What is the difference between a pneumatic nailer and a cordless nailer?
A pneumatic nailer runs on compressed air, making it lighter and often more powerful than a cordless nailer. Cordless models offer greater mobility, while pneumatic nailers typically provide greater consistency, stronger firing power and lower running costs for high-volume work.
What is a pneumatic framing nailer used for?
A pneumatic framing nailer (also referred to as a pneumatic framing gun) is designed for heavy-duty structural applications such as stud walls, timber framing, decking, roofing battens and general construction. These tools fire larger nails and deliver maximum holding power.
Is an air framing gun suitable for fencing projects?
Yes. An air framing gun is commonly used as an air nail gun for fencing, particularly when fixing rails, panels and structural timber sections. For high-volume fencing or exterior work, pairing the correct nail type (e.g. galvanised or stainless steel) is essential.
What types of pneumatic nailers are available?
Our range of pneumatic nailers includes first fix nailers (framing, roofing, flooring, joist hanger, SCRAIL and T nailers) and second fix nailers (finish nailers, brad nailers and pinners). Options are available in both coil and strip variations, as well as straight and angled configurations.
What nail sizes can pneumatic nailers fire?
Depending on the model, a pneumatic nailer can fire nails ranging from 10mm up to 160mm. Smaller gauges (23G–15G) are used for finishing and trim work, while larger framing nails are used for structural applications.
What compressor do I need for pneumatic framing nailers?
Most framing nailers require a compressor with sufficient CFM output and typically benefit from a 50L tank or larger for consistent firing. Finish nailers can often operate effectively with smaller 24L compressors.
Are pneumatic nailers suitable for professional use?
Yes. Pneumatic framing guns and finish nailers are widely used by professional tradespeople due to their reliability, power and durability in demanding environments.
Do you have an air nailer for sale for different applications?
Yes. Whether you require a heavy-duty framing nailer or a precision finish nail gun, we offer a wide selection of air nailers for sale, covering structural, roofing, flooring, fencing and interior finishing applications.
