Product Description

No compressor. No hoses. No kidding. And no sacrifices in speed or power, either. There's absolutely no comparison between this performer and the fuel-cell powered competition, which we thought was a great innovation. But there's no costly fuel cell to replace on this tool—-just pop on a recharged XRP battery and get back on the job. The only difference you'll feel between this and a traditional pneumatic is that you're not tethered to an air hose. It's just as fast and fires just as powerfully into both soft and hard joints. We love that you can choose bump or sequential mode for precision or speed, something most nailers don't offer, and the integrated headlight is another impressive addition, really lighting up your workpiece even in the worst conditions. There's a fantastic six-position numbered dial to reference your depths, so you can move easily between, for example, baseboard and crown molding without struggling to reset the depth. DeWalt's covered what would have been our main safety concern: An air tool can't fire without a hose, but what's to keep this one from being accidentally fired? They've built in a contact trip lock-off. We were pleased with the troubleshooting process, too—the nosepiece is clear and very accessible, letting you clear a jammed fastener without screwdrivers or wrenches, though we couldn't get it to jam for us. Rear loading is simple and fast, and it accepts most brands of 16-gauge nails. It's built tough for the job site, but the home hobbyist would love this tool. Just hook it on your tool belt and go; it's one of the coolest tools we've seen, and the kit has everything you need: a one-hour charger, two 14.4V XRP batteries, reversible belt hook, no-mar tip, safety glasses and the heavy-duty kit box.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Nice, but angled nailer is better
 
Review Date: February 27, 2010
Reviewer: W. Wong, Anaheim Hills, CA
I purchased this nailer to install baseboards, window and door casing, and crown molding. Works great except it was difficult to get into the inside corners when installing baseboards. I exchanged this nailer for the 20 degree DeWalt model and now have better access to the corners.
A great nailer.
Works Great

No problems. So far no jams, nails great. Comes with 2 battery packs. Only used one and nailed about 30 times and haven't had to recharge. Cheaper price on Amazon.

Reviewer: Scott Ramsey,
I bought this nailer for work&home use and it is everything i hoped for.
It cycles fast and drives nails in fully without leaving a surface blemish.My cordless drill is also the same voltage which is very convenient.I would recommend this nailer to pro's and homeowners.The one thing that may be a drawback for some people is its weight &size,it is a handful and takes a while to get comfortable with.

NR83A2 3-1/4-Inch Round-Head Framing Nailer
Tool Specifications

Nail Capacity64-70
Magazine Angle21°
Air Inlet3/8"
Operating Pressure70-120 psi
Weight7.9 lbs.
Accessories Included1 Pair Safety Glasses
Adjustable Depth of Drive for Precision
The NR83A2 features a convenient depth-of-drive adjustment knob located near the nose. Simply turn the dial half way to make quick, accurate modifications to the driving depth with no tools required.

Quick-Load Magazine for Reduced Downtime
For further convenience, the NR83A2 features a two-piece steel magazine that's designed for quick and easy loading of round-head plastic strip nails from two to 3-1/4 inches in length. The magazine has a nail capacity of 64-70 nails, which is equivalent to two nail strips. To replenish the magazine, simply pull back the nail feeder--the feeder will lock the nails in place.

Dual Firing Options for Precise or Continuous Driving
Featuring ANSI-compliant select actuation for making tool-less firing transitions, the NR83A2 Framing Nailer can be used for a variety of different applications. By simply sliding the selection control up or down with your hand, you can choose between intermittent and continuous firing. Intermittent firing is ideal for jobs that require precise driving, while the continuous setting can be used to fire nails at a rapid pace by using a bumping motion along the workpiece.

Designed for Comfort and Efficiency
Well balanced at just 7.9 pounds and measuring 21-13/16 x 4-1/4 x 13-3/8 inches (LxWxH), the NR83A2 is easy to maneuver. Its soft rubber grip provides optimum control and extended comfort for all-day jobs.

For further ease of use, a hardened toenail push lever will help the nailer stand up to wear and tear. And in case you get a jammed nail, the open nose design will make extraction a cinch.

Designed with a 3/8-inch NPT thread air inlet, the NR83A2 requires 70-120 psi operating pressure to function properly. It takes in air at a rate of 0.064 cubic feet per cycle at 100 psi.

The Hitachi NR83A2 Framing Nailer is backed by a five-year limited warranty.
