Milwaukee M18 FUEL™ Duplex Nailer (2844-20)
The Future of Formwork. Drive Duplex Nails 7x Faster with Zero Ramp-Up and No Gas Cartridges.
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL™ Duplex Nailer is a first-of-its-kind solution designed to drastically increase productivity for concrete formers and scaffolding crews. This tool delivers the power to sink duplex nails into the toughest materials while providing a 7x increase in speed over hand-driving. Featuring a nitrogen spring mechanism, the 2844-20 offers zero ramp-up time, ensuring that the nail is driven the instant you pull the trigger—eliminating the lag found in other cordless nailers.
Built for the professional jobsite, this nailer runs exclusively on M18™ REDLITHIUM™ batteries, eliminating the recurring costs and maintenance of gas fuel cells and the trip hazards of pneumatic hoses.
Key Features & Professional Benefits:
- 7x Faster Than Manual Driving: Dramatically reduces the labor hours required to build and brace concrete forms, scaffolding, and temporary structures.
- Zero Ramp-Up Time: The nitrogen air spring motor provides pneumatic-like responsiveness, firing nails as fast as you can move without the delay of a "spinning" motor.
- No Gas Cartridges Needed: 100% battery powered. Save hundreds of dollars per year on fuel cells and eliminate the need for regular gas-chamber cleaning.
- Optimized for Duplex Nails: Specifically designed to fire 21-degree plastic collated duplex nails, ensuring the second head remains exposed for easy removal during teardown.
- Tool-Free Depth Adjustment: A simple dial allows for precise control of drive depth, ensuring your forms stay tight while keeping the pull-head accessible.
- Dry Fire Lockout: Automatically stops the tool from firing when the magazine is low to prevent damage to the driver blade and the workpiece.
- Integrated Rafter Hook: A rugged, folding hook makes it easy to hang the tool on forms or ladders between tasks, keeping it off the ground and within reach.
