Description of Hitachi NV65AH 2-1/2-Inch Coil Siding Nailer
The Hitachi Siding Nailer, the Feather weight champion of fiber cement board installation. This tool has so many uses you can't call it a Siding Nailer. The ability to accept both plastic and wire collated nails (1-1/2- to 2-1/2-inch-by-.090-.099) make this tool completely unique. This tool weighs only 4.6 pounds. It has a tool-less depth of drive adjustment that can countersink or flush drive your nails. It has the power to drive case hardened nails into CONCRETE! Need a light furring strip Nailer? This Nailer can be used for siding, furring strips, sheathing, truss yards and framing. All in one tool with the quality reputation of Hitachi behind it. Hitachi Power Tools are backed by a 30-day satisfaction guarantee and a limited one-year warranty on parts and labor. Includes: Safety glasses. Accessories available: Single trip trigger mechanism - 880414.When it comes to designing nailers, Hitachi keeps the end user in mind. Their siding coil nailer, engineered for serious siding work, impressed us with its light weight (only 4.6 pounds), which does wonders for your arm (not to mention your productivity) toward the end of a long day. We're also suckers for a good grip, and the NV65AH has a great one--it's rubberized, and, unlike a lot of other tools we've known, it's also a width that normal-size humans can get their hands around. This nailer's got an easy-to-operate depth-of-drive adjustment as well, to countersink or flush-drive nails, and a smooth firing mechanism. The air deflector pivots 360 degrees--a nice, user-friendly feature.
One feature we'd like to have seen is the two bumper plates that go on the front and back of other Hitachi models. These plates really go a long way toward protecting a nailer from unnecessary wear and tear, and, in the end, they probably extend its usage quite a bit. But, on the whole, this is a nice piece of equipment. We'd be happy to fire it up any day. --Michael Shilling
Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hitachi NV65AH 2-1/2-Inch Coil Siding Nailer
Customer Review: This tool will make you money.
Summary: 5 Stars
It was tough to spend the money on this tool but as soon as I got it it was as valued as my Hitachi framing gun. This tool has paid my bills and is now standard for any contractor's box, not just for siding and fencing. I've heard other brands are good but this is the one I chose and have no real complaints.
It is great for installing most types of siding, Hardi, Cedar, Pine, whatever. Also great for decking/sheathing though the nails are too small to be the same strength as a framing nail. There are many uses for such a small nail such as exterior trim (drip moulding, 1x fascia, etc.), but also for unexpected situations in remodelling when a framing nail is too big and a trim nail is too small.
Sets the nail perfect every time unless you hit a knot. Neither pin nor safety mars too badly. Easy to load and only jams if you forget to adjust the nail magazine depth or use cheap nails. Lightweight but the nails are small enough to prevent kickback. I put a 90 degree tool hangar on it and hang it from the ladder, rafters, whatever. Have shot several brands of nails without trouble but have heard it takes a different nail than the Duo-Fast.
My only complaint is that the nails sometimes deflect when shot at an angle. But this is due to the safety needing to be smooth instead of teethed like the framer. I would assume other siding nailers would do the same but have not used them.
I worked in Japan a couple months and this was the nailer they used more than any other. They use Makita and Max brands too.
