Editorial Reviews:

For such a light gun, this one really gets the job done. It's just a bit more than 4 pounds, but it feels even lighter than that in hand because, we assume, of Hitachi's famous design and engineering. Equipped with a contact trip mechanism, it fires as fast as you can go, but you can pick up the optional sequential trigger if you need it. The magazine holds a robust 150 staples, and that means less downtime for reloading. We like the open magazine design, because you can see at just a glance if you're running low on fasteners. Not that we've ever fired blanks...

We couldn't get this gun to jam, but the clearing process is fast and simple: Just release the lock latch, open the blade guide, free the jam with a screwdriver and close the latch. Done. There's a nice clean depth-of-drive adjustment, but it isn't tool-free, so users may prefer controlling that with air pressure. It's a hardworking, trouble-free, rugged gun that will last for years.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste


User Comments about the Hitachi N5008AC 1-Inch to 2-Inch 7/16-Inch Medium Crown 16 Gauge Stapler

I am a bit concerned about the operation at start-up. It will not set the staple until you waste a dozen or so to "warm up" the gun. It takes a dozen or so staples to get it to working correctly.



Several years ago I switched to Hitachi framers and (15 gauge) finish nailers and have never had a single breakdown - and they're used day in and day out. I've tried many brands of nail guns - Senco, Porter Cable and others, only to have them go belly up and face a repair bill which is greater than the cost of the original gun. Not a single glitch in that many firings. It was superb. I'm a redwood/cedar fencing contractor. Recently I contacted to build a 300+ foot wire fence. I highly recommend this stapler. Not wanting to hand hammer 4 to 5 thousand staples, I bought a Hitachi N5008AC Stapler.



Depth adjustment is decent. So far I have shot almost 10,100 staples through it without a jam. I have also used this tool for Sheetrock strapping using 2" staples, but primarily cedar shingle siding. If you are using kiln dried white cedar shingles you don't want to be hitting them with 110 psi even if the depth is set, get me. A very solid staple gun. haven't used that to much so far. A great multipurpose and light gun. I turn my compressor down or up according to application anyway.



I have two of these and they work great, hitachi makes superior air nailers and this is no exception.



this gun has worked perfectly for years, so i bought another one.adjustable depth is very nice and the lightweight makes all day shooting easier. highly recommended.
