Milwaukee's Heavy-Duty 18 gauge Brad Nailer has a powerful oil-free motor eliminating daily oiling and potential work surface contamination. Its ultra lightweight magnesium housing minimizes fatigue, and its ergonomic grip and balance combined with its compact size offers great control and maneuverability. Its reload indicator prevents missing nails in trim work and damage to finer woods. The textured selectable trigger lets you choose sequential or contact actuation by simply turning a knob. The spring loaded magazine allows fast side loading and unloading of fasteners and holds 106 brad nails in 5/8 in. to 2-1/8 in. lengths. The self-cleaning air filter extends life by preventing dirt and debris from entering the tool. The adjustable rear air deflector with muffler directs exhaust away from the work area and holds down the noise. An adjustable and removable belt hook provides convenience for carrying. The tool-free depth of drive adjustment provides precise depth control. A tool-free jam release allows for quick access for clearing occasional jams.This straight brad nailer is one of seven new heavy-duty air-powered nailers from the venerable Milwaukee, and the whole series is another testament to the red label's unflagging quality.
Like all of Milwaukee's new nailers, this is incredibly light, even fully loaded, and its cool, compact size makes it a cinch to tote and use, especially in awkward positions and at the tail end of a long day of trim installation. But it's crowded at the top of the list: Despite their light weight, these nailers are heavyweights in the power department. The 7150-21 effortlessly drives 5/8" to 2-1/8" brads and, best of all, its reload indicator even alerts you when your magazine's nearly empty. Loading more fasteners takes a couple of seconds at most, and that means more money in your pocket. Another big tip of the hat to Milwaukee for incorporating both sequential and bump firing modes, accessible just by turning a knob, so when speed is a need, you're ready to go, but precision is at your fingertips too. We like the quality built into this tool, from the magnesium housing and oil-free motor to the easily adjustable air deflector and muffler, as well as the convenient rafter hook for storage. The non-marring nosepiece won't deface your work surface, and there's even a self-cleaning air filter in the tool handle, keeping dust and dirt out of the tool's workings - and that means longer tool life. In hand, this nailer feels great: light, comfortable, agile, beautifully balanced, and dare we say, fun to use. Tool-free depth adjustment is on-the-mark reliable, fast and easy. And should the nails jam, clearing is a snap with the tool-free jam release. Bravo, Milwaukee.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste
