Makita releases two new Framing Nailers

Makita has expanded its professional cordless range with the introduction of the brushless and high-performance BN001GZ and BN002GZ Framing Nailers.

Built on Makita’s advanced XGT 40VMax platform, the models reportedly combine power, precision and reliability to deliver quality results no matter what the task is at hand.

The new framing nailers are said deliver powerful performance combined with the freedom and efficiency required on construction sites. Makita says both offer a true pneumatic feel due to the increased compression speed of its pneumatic spring: this delivers the ideal balance of power and speed.

Both the BN001GZ and the BN002GZ feature a significantly improved rapid firing capability of up to four shots per second, enabling fast job completion without compromising on accuracy.

The BN001GZ drives clipped-head nails up to 90mm in length with a 2.9 – 3.3mm gauge with a magazine angle of 30 – 34 degrees, whereas the BN002GZ drives round-head nails up to 90mm in length with a 2.9 – 3.8mm gauge with a magazine angle of 20 – 22 degrees. The nailers are also said to offer flexible operation with a full sequential mode for single shot nailing and a contact actuation mode for continuous nailing.

Both models share a range of convenient smart features. These include a built-in LED light with pre-glow and afterglow functions to illuminate dark workspaces.

A viewing window also allows users to quickly check the remaining nail quantity, while an integrated anti-dry fire mechanism activates before the nail count reaches zero to help prevent missed shots.

Additionally, the tools have an adjustable driving depth dial and an anti-slip nose with a redesigned tip shape to ensure stable, efficient performance, even during angled nailing. Each tool is also equipped with a practical belt hook and a 38mm rafter hook, allowing easy hanging on ladders, scaffolding and timbers.
