Hitachi NT65M2S Review

The NT65M2S is a sixteen gauge finish nail gun that is specifically designed for the more advanced builders. This product would appeal to advanced building contractors as well as anyone who has more experience in woodworking and building homes. The air duster button on the machine allows air in the compressor to avoid the nailing function, meaning that any dust in your work surface will be cleared away without it being hindered by air produced from the machine.

The NT65M2S is a very compact and lightweight nailer, allowing the user to easily hold and aim for the most precise nail placement. This device comes ready to use for chair rails, finish applications, and cabinetry installation alike. A selective actuation switch on the nailer allows you to either fire sequentially or on contact. It all depends on what particular kind of job you have on hand. The switch is very simple and straightforward to use, so you don’t have to use any other tools or additional components to make the switch. The nose on the front end of the Hitachi NT65M2 is very clear and allows the user to remove nail jams without many obstructions.

As we have mentioned, the Hitachi NT65M2S 16 gauge features a three hundred and sixty degree exhaust port that is designed to blow air away from the user (a.k.a you!) and to protect your work surfaces. It will accept any fasteners that range from one to two and a half inches, but only as long as they are sixteen gauge. The magazine is capable of holding up to one hundred nails in total.

The Hitachi NT65M2 price is a tad higher than some other nail guns on the market; you can expect to pay around one hundred and seventy to two hundred dollars for the complete kit when all is said and done. Is it really worth to pay this much for a high quality nailer, or should you instead turn to your hammer resting in your garage? Well, for smaller job a regular hammer is certainly all you need. But if you have a big project in mind or that’s coming up soon, you’ll definitely want to invest in the Hitachi NT65M2S.

The Hitachi NT65M2S is an example of a pneumatic nailer. Pneumatic nailers are an excellent alternative to more traditional nailers, because they provide more power. This, coupled with the high quality that Hitachi provides, is largely why the price point on the NT65M2S is rather high. In addition, pneumatic nailers also operate with fewer moving parts inside of the machine, meaning that they are also very durable and can take more abuse than other nailers.

Pneumatic nailers use controlled, compressed air in order to function. The Hitachi NT65M2S employs a piston driven, two stage compressor to power the nails. Bigger compressors that use this same method would require higher levels of PSI, stronger motors, and large tanks, but since the NT65M2 tool is a smaller device, it doesn’t require the same amount of power as its much larger cousins. The NT65M2S comes with its own compressor as included in the set, but beware if you plan on buying the same type of nailer from a different company…not all hardware and nailer companies will include the compressor in the set.

Pneumatic nailers need compressed air in order to release the hammer. A valve will open up to allow the air to fill up the cylinder. The piston is located inside of the cylinder, and is driven down to force the nail out of the gun and into the direct area the head of the nailer is pointed in. As the pistol recoils, another nail will be loaded in.
