Will not work with 18 ga nails. If you could see 18 and 15.5 side by side you would understand. Great tool for the money though

The 18 gauge will work and leaves a smaller hole to fill but I like to use my 15 gauge for baseboards with 2 1/2 in nails cause you are trying to pick up the floor plate on a steep angle if you are trying to pull the top of the baseboard in tight to the sheet rock.

I think i set mine between 40-60psi. You really need an air compressor with volume...not a small pancake style meant for a nailer but a full size version.

I used a bostitch that had 150psi max output to drive 16p nails. Setting the output above 100psi. That might be above the rating for this nailer but it worked for me.

Hi! Yes, it works with 18 gauge.....I use 22 for most of my projects and am very happy but, have used it for for different gauges.

Manufacturer's usually state that the PSI should be between 80-120 PSI in almost all nail guns. I usually have my compressor set not to go below 90 PSI. A lot depends on the gun and what you are nailing into. The harder woods sometimes it is nice to bump up the PSI to 100+ and not let it go below that.

The brand of nails does not matter. Any straight 18 ga. 5/8" to 2" should work. Others might have experience with a specific brand. The manufacturer provides some generic brand ones they deem are acceptable.

I used some of the 22 degree without a problem. I've used Bostich guns for 30 years prior to this gun & this is as good as any I've used.t's a great nailer

I am pretty sure that I am using 2" 18-gauge Bostich brads in my gun... would have to check later to be absolutely certain.

18 gauge wire is what we used and it works just perfect. Hope this helps you with your decision.
