Arrow Fastener has come out with the Arrow Fastener Electric Brad Nailer.  This nailer is a has huge benefit for homeowners, decorators and DIYers because it eliminates the need for a compressor and hose.

The new EBN320 R.E.D.™ Professional Electric Brad Nail Gun, is able to shoot an electric staple and 18 gauge brad nail.

First Impression:

The EBN320 R.E.D. has an durable high-impact composite plastic housing with an ergonomic soft rubber grip and sleek design.   The tool is light weight and has a side-load magazine that was quick and easy to use.  A 10 foot cord may eliminate the need for an extension cord in newer homes.

A really nice feature is an on board LED light.Arrow electric brad nailer

The depth of drive know is not easy or comfortable to operate.  I found my hand contorted in order to get the know to turn.

Specifications:

  • Fires up to 2-in. 18 gauge straight brad nails
  • Side loading
  • Depth of drive control
  • High-impact composite housing and soft rubber grip
  • 10-ft. cord
  • Contact safety mechanism
  • On/Off power switch
  • Rotating belt hook
  • LED guide lightArrow electric brad nailer

Using The EBN320 R.E.D.™ Professional Electric Brad Nail Gun:

This nailer can fire up to 2” (50mm) 18 gauge Brad Nails, the depth of drive control enables users to set nails right on virtually every surface.  I found that to shoot a 2″ brad into two pieces of 3/4″ AC plywood the depth of drive had to be set to full depth.

The nailer worked well but I found I needed to apply downward pressure on the tool with my support hand in order to get the brads to set properly.

Overall Impression:

This is a perfect tool for  homeowners, decorators and DIYers as it provides ease and maximum convenience for small scale brad fastening.
