The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Framing Nailers set the new standard for cordless framing nailers. By leveraging our nitrogen spring mechanism, POWERSTATE™ brushless motor, and REDLINK™ Intelligence this nailer provides pneumatic performance with the convenience and freedom of cordless. Delivering the power to sink clipped or full round head nails into dense engineered lumbers, this tool can handle even the most demanding framing applications. To keep you productive and efficient throughout the day this tool fires 3 nails per second with zero ramp up time, meaning a nail is fired as soon as you pull the trigger. Additionally, this tool operates using only our REDLITHIUM™ Batteries and sealed compressed nitrogen to drive each nail, completely eliminating the cost of gas cartridges and maintenance associated with competitors’ nailers. The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Framing Nailers deliver the pneumatic performance and durability that professional carpenters and remodelers expect, without the hassle of a compressor and hose or gas cartridge.

-Sequential and contact actuation firing modes
-Dry fire lockout

I am a factory authorized tool repair technician for 18 different
brands. I repair these types of tools every day.
I am not going to comment on tool quality pro or con so, please don't ask. But I would
CAUTION anyone that plans to buy or already owns a Milwaukee brand power tool.
Take a good clear photo of your tool label, clearly showing
your model and serial number. And then put some protective tape or something
protective over that label. The reason for this is, Milwaukee will only honor
their warranty if you have the serial number and a receipt of your purchase
that clearly shows the date of purchase. They will repair the tool but if THEY
cannot read the serial number on the tool label, they will not honor the warranty.
So, please protect that label and document it while it's still readable.
I say this because we deal with this situation almost daily.
The label on their tools is not durable at all. Not like the old metal labels
on the old tools that had the model and serial stamped into the metal. The new
labels are some sort of thin metallic tape that in normal use it will quickly become
illegible and thus void your warranty.
Good stuff
This is simply not true in my experience. Maybe 3 years from now it will be, when the warranty period for the first of these expires. I have only dealt with Milwaukee warranty one time, but it was a breeze. Called the "sawdust" number. I told them what the tool was and the issue. They said something like, "We're sorry about that. What is your address?" I gave them my info they said the tool couldn't be out of warranty since it was just released 2 yrs ago and sent me a brand new replacement tool, sealed in the box just as the one I bought, with a return label for the broken tool. Total time from call to new tool on my doorstep, 2-1/2 days. No receipt, no shipping charges, no questions asked except what my delivery address was.
You are correct about the labels. They suck. I take photos of all my tools and labels for insurance purposes. Even the batteries. I have a spreadsheet that I update occasionally with new tool purchases with date, model#, serial# and description. I have a stack of all the manuals that came with the tools, but will admit that I have only filled out the serial number block in it 2 or 3 times out of the 100 plus tools I have. I'd better get on that.
@@mikemorgan5015 Consider yourself extremely fortunate because we deal with this issue nearly every day and have been round and round with the company about this ever since they came out with the Fuel models. Although your obsessive record-keeping will ultimately serve you very well, I am sure. Most never take the time and then find out they should have.
Then you need your government to make better laws for warranties with these companies. We have no such problem, serial missing or not, milwaukee would be bound to our consumer warranty laws, and also, which usually extends beyond the manufacturers limited warranties due to how much you paid for the item. Expensive tools/furniture/whitegoods etc are expected to last a period of time regardless of their 1 or 2 year warranties. And that also applies to software who are one of the worst offenders with their 'you opened it so you can't return it' approach, they can't do that here. Make them accountable and watch how much better the tools get.
@@oo0Spyder0oo Where specifically are to talking about?
I have watched a dozen videos on these guns and finally my questions have been answered. Thank you.
Me too
Best reviews hands down! Stop trying to watch other channels for the reviews, you’re wasting time! This man here tells you everything you need to know about this product. He even tells you what type of nails to use!! Awesome reviews!! Subbed!
Nice vid. Quick question why choose 30 degree or 21 ? What is reasoning behind the different degree nails? Is one better for one thing and the other does better in another?
21 = better range of nail diameter 30 = easier in in tight spaces
Absolutely love the 21° framing nailer ....
Excelent video ! Thx
What would you guys recommend , the one with paper or plastic belt nails?
@TheToolNut: by pre-ordering the 21 degree nailer how long will it be available and shipped? Thanks..
Love my Milwaukee tools, excellent video, thanks!
Good description video. Only time will tell how durable this tool is!
Very nice tool. Just purchased one yesterday. Very Very heavy!!! You won't run all day with it and not have a sore wrist.
Thank you for this video and information.After watching this I was able to purchase the 30 degree thanks again
It looks like there are 2 holes on the gun to attach the mag. Can you use either a 30deg or a 20deg mag on the same gun? If not, what is the other hole for?
The best information of all the channels easy and simple thanks
Thank you!!
I just purchased the 20 degree kit. I’ve always kept my air nailers well oiled including spraying a shot or two of WD40 down my magazines and the firing head assemblies. I’ve have very little issues with jambs or misfires doing this. This gun obviously dose not require internal lubricant but I’m wondering if I should keep the magazine track/slide and the firing head lubricated. Let me know your thoughts.
Thank you for the good idea, going to try this out.
Ordered mine and it shipped already 👌
Luckyyyyyyyy... 😔
Are they okay for Hardie siding? Would a finish nailer work for Hardie siding?
How you get 2744-20 3 weeks ago? Even now i can't get it anywhere
21 degree was supposed to start shipping July 1st. Any signs of it shipping yet?
Some reviews state they have problems using it alot and nails stop going in all the way or needing repairs due to excessive use. Thoughts?
I would love to see if the clips are interchangeable with each gun I noticed on the 30ﾟ nail or there's an extra screw I would love to see if this 21ﾟ clip fed on it..great video by the way
VCG did a video and there not interchangeable.
@@randynava5653 thanks for the update
How loud is it, compared to a Paslode?
Great Review. Very Helpful Sir
Thanks Thomas!
I have the 30 degree version 2455. Can you put the 21 degree long magazine in the 30 degree gun? Are they interchangeable?
They are not interchangeable
I wonder whats the best to get
Well done
Why no stickers like you already have all over the new Milwaukee compressor??
Wow, thanks for this great video. I have Milwaukee ELECTRIC tools but have been getting some of their battery powered tools. Handy if and when you are in a situation without electricity. I am fine with the manual but sometimes a picture is “worth a thousand words”.
Thanks Louise!
Judging by the extra brass nut insert it looks like either unit will accept both slides (30 degree or 21 degree)- does that work or is it just a commonized manufacturing process?
It will not, the nose and magazine of each gun is set to a specific angle
good review, thnx
I want to buy one of these but can’t decide on the 30 degree or 21 degree? Any ideas from the pros out there? Also, what’s the difference between paper attached nails or plastic? Thank you
John, the 30 degree can get into tighter spaces, so it's sometimes preferred for that reason. No big pros/cons between the types of collation.
I will prefer the 34 degree. My pneumatic nailer with 21 degree nails makes a lot of trash plastic on the floor, and sometimes peaces of plastic strikes in to my face or hands, and sometimes they are stuck under the nail, it is not looking good. So, yo will ask why i chose the 21 - ok, i thought it may be more solid under rain)
Nice review!
Thank you!
But the real question is can you out the 30 degree clip on the 21 gun and vise versa
I was just wondering the same thing...
Are there different uses for the 21 and 30 degree guns or is is just a preference between paper and plastic and the angle?
Gage of Nails used
@@mansardmanor3869 well said, basically plastic can have a ever so slightly thicker nail?
The 21 degree lets them space the nails apart and that means you get full headed nails, not clipped as with most of the 30-34 degree ones (you can get full heads in these but they are offset). Also allows the gauge to be thicker because of the spacing.
@@oo0Spyder0oo ahh very interesting. I did not know this!
Thanks for replying to the comment thread.
How long will the milwaukee gun run on a 5 amp HRbattery?
750 nails per charge on a RedLithium XC5.0 battery. Order now at www.toolnut.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=m18+fuel+framing+nailer
Used it on my last job. It is HEAVY! Still, could not find any reason to start the compressor & run a hose for my air nailer. Milwaukee, please make a sheathing stapler & a hanger nailer. My job site will be free from hoses forever.
Paslode maybe?
Worx has a stapler
They have the stapler already bro!
How would you compare these to the metabo cordless framing nailer ?
Much better!! I had the metabo around a year
lenard bosch The Milwaukee is much better? How so?. I’m in the market and I’m at a crossroads between the two. Seeing that the Milwaukee just came out it’s probably an updated improvement I’m guessing. My only lean towards the metabo is that I have a local metabo repair shop that can be used in the warranty.
What the difference between 21 degree and the 30 degree gun?
@@sonnguyen-ut4nv Just the type and angle of the nails used
What is the difference between the 21° nailer and a 30° nailer when it comes to the nails
About 9 degrees
Lol
I see a few comments regarding full versus clipped head nails. Many codes require full head. This point should be emphasized as I'd hate an inspector to make my crew re-nail all the connections!
Most 30 degree nails I see in the stores are full off set heads so you see a full head. Now I always have wondered if they hold as strong as 21 degree full head. Probably not, but is it enough of a difference to worry. Most of the framers around here(north east) use 30 degree so 🤷♂️ I see this question and ask it a lot and there is just not a lot of solid info out there
You dont get a rapid charger with it. Just a regular m18/m12 charger
The downside of rapid chargers (based on lithium battery technology) is that rapid charging will reduce the overall life of the battery. A slow charge will provide prolonged life of the battery. If you use a lot of tools, the multicharger might be a better option than rapidly charging 1 or 2.
CAN ANY EXPLAIN HOW THESE ARE BOT THE SAME? Why would you need one but not the other?
The only difference between the two models is the type of nails. One uses a 21-degree collated nail and the other uses a 30-degree. See some of the other comments on this video for why you may want choose one or the other. Visit toolnut.com to order now.
Is there a finished nailer in the works 🤔
Milwaukee already has brad and finish nailers available, see the link below.
www.toolnut.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?q=milwaukee+m18+finish+nailer&tn_product_type=11793
Amazed that they still design a bump fire function into any pneumatic or cordless nailer! In the 1980s I managed at a mobile home manufacturer and cannot remember how many times I saw and responded to folks who nailed themselves to a wall or roof. We used Senco and Bostitch tools in the day, didn't matter folks nailed themselves with both. At least on this tool you can consciously disable the feature, which is the way I would recommend that it be set ALL the time, could not do that back in the day.
Just bought one in NZ and it doesn't have that function
35 S Kiwi Im thinking of getting one too, are they worth it? (Also from NZ)
@@unSTEVOED so far so good. But as I'm a sparky and not a chippie, it doesn't get thrashed every day. Bought it for diy projects as swinging a hammer gets old really quick. Showing my age a bit. Lol. All my other gear is Milwaukee tho and I have had a really good run with that.
@@35southkiwi16 Classic, Im a sparky too. Ive been looking at a nail gun for Noggin out houses for fixings etc. Most of my Gear is Milwaukee as well, but sort of hesitating on getting the Framing Gun due to cost.
@@unSTEVOED Snap then hahaha. :-)
yeah they are not cheap. got mine at tool shed as I find them good to deal with especially once you have some history in their system. I don't think you'd be disappointed, they get some good reviews here on the tube. I get a better result than I would with a hammer.
Does this shoot 3 in 10d nails?
Yes, the 21-degree model is capable of handling nails up to 0.148" in diameter, which is 10d. The 30-degree model has a max nail diameter of 0.131", so it cannot handle 10d nails. The nail length range for both models is 2" to 3-1/2".
Can the Framing Nailer run with the 3.0 High Output batteries ??
The operating manual does not list a minimum battery size requirement, so it should work with all M18 batteries. Of course, a smaller battery pack will reduce runtime. www.toolnut.com
@@toolnut nice 👌
Thank You!
They released it here with 2 x 3.0ah batteries in their kit so it must be ok.
@@oo0Spyder0oo yeah, I'd rather have two 3.0 batteries then one 5.0👍
Are their specific reasons for 30 or 21 degree guns?
Michael, 21-degree nailers use plastic collation for the nails and 30-degree uses paper. Some users prefer 30-degree because it makes it easier to get the nailer into tighter spaces.
To answer your other question about FUEL, that's Milwaukee's top-of-the-line brushless motor technology. Brushless motors last longer, use less battery power and are more powerful than brushed motors.
code hurricane zones use 21°
Hi do have to have a regular service like the crap dewalt
What does “fuel “ mean ?
Its just their pro line. Usually also means brushless motors with more torque, but that isn't always the case.
Wait I didn’t get a rapid charger. I just got the old and slow one. Can you guys send me a rapid charger?
3 1/4
Tool nut great video but you left out the most important thing of all. There's three different types of nail heads there is full heads, clipped heads and offset full heads please let us know what type of nail heads the 30-degree gun will shoot and the 21-degree we'll shoot. Please make another video on this. Peace brother
Sorry about that, 21 deg plastic collated nails are only full head and will work in the plastic Milwaukee framer. As far as the 30 deg paper tape nails both clipped and full head (offset) will work in the Milwaukee paper tape framer
@@toolnut thank you so much for taking the time and letting me know because I'm trying to decide which one I want to purchase. You just help me out a lot now I can decide which Nails I want to shoot. Peace brother
@@jeffcoolhd hard to find full head 30 degree nails. At least for me. 21 degree seems to be the way to go for full head.
I'm sick and tired of those plastic collated nails. They seem to shoot in your eyes about 5 times a day, plus the plastic cracks, nails slip onto the wrong side of the next nails head, etc. I went with the 30 degree paper tape nails and nothing has shot into my eyes ever.
I have no framing nail gun experience. Why is there a 21
and 31 degree tools. Are they used differently?
Another question; If I remember correctly wasn’t there issues with building inspectors wanting a normal nail and these guns only shoot nails with offset heads.
Judd _S Many moons ago certain nail gun brands did different magazine angles so you bought their nails to go with their guns. Now most companies offer multiple guns with the different angles for customers who might already be using those nails. Most offset nails on the market these days are full round heads and should be compliant in most areas. Still probably not a bad idea to check with town and inspector before doing the work
These things are WAY too heavy...and I own almost exclusively milwaukee tools(have all the nailers). Picked this up and put it right back down at the yard. I'll stick with my paslode compact pneumatic nailer until they figure out how to get this thing at least 3lbs lighter
One month in, my Milwaukee cordless spiker will not drive nails....it's turned into a piece if shit
Milwaukee forces you to use their service center to repair the tool you cannot buy parts for your gun to service it yourself
Use the plastic clips they are much better.
Why do you think they’re better? I think the exact opposite
I went from a passcode nail gun to a compressor run Bottich nailer and the first thing I noticed was that I was getting hit in the face with the little pieces of plastic coming at ballistic speed the nails are the same, 30 degree gets into tighter spots. I strongly disagree and just ordered the 30 degree Milwaukee
Tom Murphy i have the metabo plastic gun, its really good BUT those little plastic pieces CAN hurt if you’re hit in the wrong spot from them I would MUCH prefer the paper tape gun over the plastic collated nails.
Milwaukee is a great gun but at 11.1lbs I'll take the 7.2lb Pasload.
That’s the hard part, I’d like to replace all our Paslode framing nailer’s but they’re so much more ergonomic and lighter to use all day than the new Milwaukee guns, even though everything else I have is Milwaukee
@@healing2gether I’ve been trying to decide on the same thing. My boss provides gas for 4 employees & I don’t wanna be the 5th...
@@ukayhemi6385 hey, so I have bought a few of the Milwaukee nailer‘s by now and I can tell you they are wonderful! But the framer is significantly heavier in the past load, and to be honest I’m upset and how heavy in the walk is, but the 18 gauge Brad nailer is by far the best, I just made this video :
czcams.com/video/yT2eyaa2_sM/video.html
@@healing2gether I just ordered the 21 degree so ima see how it performs, just won’t wanna have to worry about the gas aspect
@@healing2gether Got my 21 degree, & Wednesday, haven’t used it to the fullest potential but I like the way it feels, yeah a bit on the heavy-ish side but I think I’ll get used to it tbh, still beats paying for gas
Very interesting Mikwaukee nailer being used Exclusively with Paslode nails?? its like owning Tundra with Chevy nails 🤦♂️🤦♂️
They probably joined businesses from this. Orr they are owned by the same company
You can use any, just the paslode are a good brand.
This gun know nothing about tools. Regular charger said rapid charger. That's not how you do business. You do not even know the tools
Shut up!
The m18/m12 charger is their standard charger issued with m18 tools. So no, he is not wrong.
