For Metal Connectors
Here, the point of the nail sticks out a little bit so you can go inside holes such as metal connectors.
1.5"
- Masterforce - Gun - works only with 1.5" nails [3]. Non-galv nails - [4]. Galvanized nails - 4 cents -
[5] - Metabo, $200 [6]. Galvanized nails - 6.5 cents. [7]
1.5" + 2.5"
- Metabo (formerly Hitachi) - $286 [8]. 1.5" nails are 4 cents - [9]. Get one with long magazine, not short. But, it uses 36 degree nails [10]. However, this nail vendor states explicitly that it takes 30-34 degree nails. [11]. Note The Metabo HPT NR65AK2 is identical to the Hitachi NR65AK2S.
- Metabo Cordless - $400 - [12]

Vinyl Siding Nailer
- Cordless Dewalt - needs adapter. Up to only 1.75" nails. Fast. Up to 3 nails per second. Great review - [19].
- Uses wide head nails which do not slip through slots of the vinyl siding
- Not same as roofing nailer, but can use roofing nails
- Has a mechanism for adjusting to the correct vertical spacing of vinyl slots
- Uses coil nails
- Roofing nails are ok for vinyl siding - for their wide head [20]
Coil Roofing Nail Gun - 15 degree

- Can run 15 degree coil galvanized siding nails through a coil roofing nailer? Yes if you know what you are doing. [22]. Another yes - [23]. Otherwise, you hear 'only roofing nails' or '15 degree nails up to 1.75" long'
- Can be used for vinyl siding [24]
