BRASELTON, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Pro Preferred Brand of Pneumatic Nailers*, Metabo HPT today announced the newest addition to its cordless nailer lineup with the 18V MultiVolt™ 18-Gauge Compact Brad Nailer (model NT1850DF). This brushless cordless nailer is 30% more compact and 31% lighter than its predecessor (model NT1850DES) at only 4.4 lbs., making it easier to fit into tight spaces and to nail crown overhead for hours without getting fatigued. It can deliver a driving speed of 3 nails per second with zero ramp-up time saving valuable time and increasing productivity. This compact brad nailer is a convenient alternative for any trim application offering the freedom to move without the hassle of dragging a hose, lugging a noisy compressor, or having to deal with gas cartridges. You can’t go wrong with a cordless brad nailer that feels like a pneumatic and is similar in size and weight!
This 18V cordless brad nailer easily drives 1,650 brad nails per charge with the included compact 3.0Ah battery (or up to 4,000 brad nails per charge with an 8.0Ah MultiVolt battery) while delivering the “feel” of a pneumatic - thanks to Metabo HPT’s unique Air Spring Drive technology that uses compressed air to drive each nail. The NT1850DF cordless brad nailer drives 5/8” up to 2” 18-Gauge brad nails up to 0.31” in diameter. The tool-less depth of drive adjustment, now located on the left side, is easier to operate for right-handed users, which adds convenience to quickly change to flush drive or countersink into varying material. It’s equipped with a compact belt hook to hang securely from a tool belt and the narrower striking head makes for more accurate placement of brad nails.
The brushless motor delivers more runtime and extended durability with essentially no maintenance. With zero ramp-up time, there is no waiting for the tool to warm up – simply turn on the tool on the simplified control panel, and you’re ready to go. It has the power to drive 2” brads into any softwood, trim and MDF as well as sink brads into hardwoods. For increased user safety, this tool features an LED light and a side-lock switch to prevent accidental firing.
The NT1850DF 18V 18-Gauge Cordless brad nailer is part of the expanding MultiVolt System of 18V and 36V power tools from Metabo HPT. GO lighter with 18V batteries or GO longer with the unique MultiVolt battery that works on both 18V and 36V tools to double runtime for up to 8.0Ah of runtime per charge and more power for ultimate versatility. Backed by Metabo HPT’s Lifetime Lithium-Ion tool body warranty and two-year Lithium-Ion battery warranty there’s ultimate peace of mind. MSRP $349.
