With a 5.0Ah 18V LXT battery, it can drive up to 1, 000 finish nails (battery not included.
For more convenience, cordless means there is no need for a compressor and air hose.
Having a small center height makes it easier to see around the nose tip when fastening in small places.
An anti-dry fire mechanism was designed to help prevent blanks from being driven and damage to the work surface. Having a reversible belt clip means that the tool can stay close to you.
Style:Naile.
Model XNB02Z is a Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion cordless 2-1/2″ straight finish nailer, 16 GA. It can be used to install trim, baseboard and crown molding, as well as wood flooring and other woodworking projects. If you want to drive 16 gauge straight finish nails from 1″ to 2-1/2″ long, the XNB02Z is a good choice. It’s small and powerful, and it has a magazine that holds up to 110 nails. Use an 18V LXT 5.0Ah battery (not included) to drive up to 1, 000 finish nails on a single charge. In addition, there is a mechanism called “anti-dry fire,” which is designed to keep blanks from being driven and the work surface from being damaged. It has a two-mode switch, a trigger Lock button, and a “tool-less” depth adjustment that makes it easy to get a perfect flush or countersink finish without having to use tools. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion system, which is the world’s largest cordless tool system that runs on 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries, which are the most powerful batteries in the world. 18V lithium-ion batteries from Makita have the fastest charge times in their categories because they work more and don’t have to wait as long to be charged. For better tool performance and longer battery life, Makita came up with Star protection Computer controls. Star protection is a type of communication technology that allows a Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and keep an eye on things while they’re being used to make sure they don’t get too hot, get too full, or get too low. For more versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT and small Lithium-Ion batteries that have the Star symbol on them. These batteries have Star protection inside.
Most of the power tools I own are made by Makita, which is what I use the most. I bought this because I was excited to finally have a battery-powered finish nailer in my tool box. The first time I used this tool, I sent in about 250 nails. After that, this tool only put in 70 percent of the nails that were at least level with the finish surface. From 1/8″ to sometimes 1″, the rest was out. This went into Pine. Nail lengths range from 1 1/2″ to 2 1/2″. It’s a great brand, but I couldn’t keep this tool. Returned.
I had the chance to fire another one of these at a trade show earlier this year. It was a mixed bag of driving skills. People who work for the power tool company told me that this is a very common problem with this tool and the reason for a lot of people to return it. Makita needs to get their act together and make a better version. To the “He knows” review. LO. Amp hour of 3.0 vs. 5.0 gives the same amount of power. 18V is 18V, but it’s just a way to say how long the battery can keep giving that power before it runs out. Do yourself a favor and stay away from “smart” guys like that on the weekends.
