Cordless Finish Nailer
Paslode has finally introduced a
cordless finish gun. The new
Impulse 250, operates similarly to
the Impulse 325 framing nailer: A
6-volt battery ignites a measured
amount of propane-like fuel, and
the explosion forces the piston
straight down to drive the nail.
Since it takes less energy to drive a
finish nail than a framing nail, the
finish nailer uses a different fuel
canister than the framing tool. But
the 250 will drive everything from
3/4-inch brads to 2 1/2-inch (8d) finish
nails, making it one of the most
versatile finish guns on the market.
