Re: Nail compatibility with Milwaukee framing nailer
Any full round head with a 22 degree angle and plastic collated nail between 2 to 3 1/2 inch should work, they don't list any other specific brand but these are the requirements for the tool.

Daft though it may seem, is the depth of drive adjustment set correctly? If so then it could be either gas that is out of date or a fuel cell that has not been manufactured correctly. Just pop a brand new cell that is a genuine branded product and see if this cures the issue. If not, then take it to you're local repair centre.
This is a bottom fire tool. (NV83A2) You need to hold the trigger down and then as you place the nailer to the wood the safety will depress and it will fire once. This is usually done in one, swift action. If you do this in the opposite way by placing the tool to the wood and then pulling the trigger they often will double fire.
Hello,
Most Senco nail guns are great about listing out brands of nails that will work with their guns, they are not particular to using their nails. The 901 does use 33 degree nails but if Senco does not list the brand that you have then I would recommend not using them so you do not damage your gun. Maybe you can sell them on Craigs List?
Hope this helps

You did not provide brand, but this broad spectrum will give you some indication. Framers operate, depending on the brand, on 45psi (2.5bar) to 120psi (8.3bar).
Setting depend on several variables, that is thickness of the timber, hardness of the timber, lenght of the nail, to certain extend hardness and diameter of the nail..
You know that pressure is correct to material when nail head is flushed with surface of the timber or very slightly below.
If nail stick above the surface, you need increase pressure (in stages! do not jump from one extremity to another!), till you achieve flash suurface.
if nail takes "dive" and is more than thickness of the head below the surface, you need to decrease the pressure till you achieve this "golden" level of flush or just below the surface.
Sometime there is necessity to drive nails into totally unsuitable surface of timber (for example bamboo, yes, I know it sound ridiculous, but not everyone live in north america...), it is then good idea to spray nails with teflon or silicone oils, This treatment allow penetration even in bamboo, mahagony and other timbers harder than 12 in Jenkins scale without riping them apart.
Albeit if I see you firing nailer in my workshop into mahagony I will fire you... :-)
Hope this short intro into the noble art of framing and pneumatic nailer world will help you. Do not forget wearing protective glassess or face shield while using nailer! You have only two eyes and there is no spares...
probably as long as they are the same nail BUT nailers are often very finnicky, probably by design, to encourage users to buy brand nails. would recommend NOT mixing brands with nailers and nails, from personal experience.
The F28WW takes 28Deg nails that are collated with wire, so your nails won't work in that gun. The N80SB is also a 28Deg nailer so your 30 Deg nails won't work in that gun either.
Sorry about the bad news but it looks like your going to have to spring for new nails
I worked at at tool rental center while attending college and learned from the old tool masters about nails and nailers. Rental stores have many different brands of nailers to rent and customers would bring their own nails of all brands. You will notice on the case/box that your nails will /should work on many other brands however the degree or angle of the nails is not always exacly as stated on the box. You should check with protractor the exact angle of your nails and also check the exact angle of the nailer. Use straight edge on travel path of the piston and another on guide rails to check angle of the gun. You will discover that all is not as stated as in a perfect world. If the angle is off slightly, the head of the second nail will get into the path of the driver. This happens mostly with clip head because the nail heads are so close together. The full round head is spaced further apart with less jamming. If angle is off slightly, take a look at other brands of nails with protractor in hand, the angle will be different slightly or choose a slightly thicker nail. Look for the nails to fit with bottom of nail hitting the barrel first. This will move the head of the nail slightly away from the center line. Finally do not release pusher with force as this will jamb nails closer together. Good Luck!?
Hi, No you can't. They are two different feeds. The F33 uses tape feed and the N79 uses stick feed. The N79 is a basic wood frame nailer that uses 3 to 3 1/4 sticks, while the F33 uses up to 2 1/2 paper feed. The stick nails are the most common for the older nailers and on the box look for Bostitch as the brand to fit, as the N79 was sold under that brand not Stanley. This should Fixya!
The Dewalt D51844 uses a full round head 20 degree nail. Sometimes the generic brand nails are not made exactly to the stated degree. They do this so their nails will work on a variety of nailers. Best to check the nails angle in relation to the angle of your nailer. Place a strip of nails on the outside of the rail. Align the heads of the nails to a convenient straight edge on the rail then check that the head and shaft of the first nail is aligned with the barrel. If the lower part of the nail projects out further than the head, then the driver will miss the head. If the head of the first nail appears close enough to barrell for the driver to hit it then place a new strip of nails into the mag and slide the pusher foward. Fire one nail, if success, remove the nails from the mag and check if the plastic holding the nails together is projecting in front of the first nail. Sometimes the plastic is not right, too stiff, and will not let the next nail align with the barrell. If the next nail appears ready and slides forward then the driver may not be going all the way up after shot. Check by inserting a metal rod into barrell and push driver up till it stops. If the driver is in the uppermost position, then most likely brand of nails. Use Dewalt nail. Good Luck
