Brad nailers use smaller, 18-gauge nails. Brad nails (often just called brads), are 18 gauge, which is 0.0475 of an inch. They vary in length from ½ to 2½ inches.

The brad nailer is lightweight, weighing in at just over two pounds, making it easy to use for long lengths of time. You can also choose between two different fire modes: bump fire or sequential fire.
