Product Description: With a heavy-duty 16-gauge finish nailer, an 18-gauge brad nailer, an oil-free compressor, and all the fittings you need to get set-up, this kit from DeWalt makes it easy tackle a wide range of finish carpentry and woodworking tasks, from crafting custom furniture to securing molding in place. The 18-gauge nailer can handle up to 100 straight collated nails that are 1/2-inch to 1-1/4 inches long at a time, while the 16-gauge nailer can handle up to 160 straight collated nails that are 1-1/4 to 2-1/2 inches long at a time. Each of these nailers also offers tool-free jam clearing, so a bent or damaged fastener never brings work to a standstill for long, convenient 360-degree exhaust, a unique vertical slide that allows you to select depth settings quickly and without any special tools, an over-molded no-mar pad that grips material for accurate toe nailing and protects your work surface, and a trigger lock for improved safety. Each well-balanced nailer also employs a reversible belt hook that provides convenience for both right- and left-handed users.

Featuring a two-gallon tank and the ability to deliver 2.0 SCFM at 90 PSI and a maximum of 150 PSI, the compressor included in this kit is powerful enough to run both of these nailers at the same time, with dual quick couplers to make set up easy. And at just 79dBA, it is surprisingly quiet. You can count on its durability with details like an oil-free, long-life pump, which ensures smooth, maintenance-free operation that never results in oil spilled on sensitive work surfaces, a high-flow regulator, an easy-to-use ball valve drain, and a thoughtful roll-cage design that prevents damage to critical compressor parts. At just 30 pounds and 10.5 inches wide with a convenient cord-wrap feature, this compact unit is easy to move around the jobsite and to store. These DeWalt tools are backed by a full 1-year warranty.


Customer Reviews


5 stars Excellent All Around
This is my first air compressor but I have had the privilege of using many different portable air compressors (most of them Porter Cable) and this is my favorite. I originally bought this set with general carpentry projects in mind, and I am very glad I did.

Air Compressor Pros:
1. Fills quickly.
2. 2 hose connections are very helpful
3. Metal plate on top protects the motor.
4. Stands up on back for storage so it takes up less floor space.
5. My favorite drain valve I have ever seen on any compressor.
6. Easy to carry.
7. Good placement of power switch on the back.


Air Compressor Cons:
1. 2 Gallon air tank does not allow for much storage.
2. CFM rate is not high enough to use a spray gun for more than short bursts.

Nail Gun Pros:
1. Both nail guns have easy built in safety locks above the triggers.
2. Biggest finish nailer I have ever seen come in an air compressor set.
3. Finish nailer has a good belt clip.
4. The finish nailer once got pulled off my belt and fell onto concrete pavers and did not get a single scratch.

Nail Gun Cons:
1. When you first get the guns they do not come with the hose connectors installed. (They do come with the connectors and Teflon tape but you must put them in.) To protect the guns from any particles falling into them, the guns come with plastic inserts which are almost impossible to remove.
2. The trigger bump on the brad nailer gets jammed in the upright position sometimes.

Accessories:
It came with two accessories I was not aware of at the time of purchase. A single bag big enough for both nailers, the 25' hose included, gun oil, and boxes of nails. It also came with very cheep feeling safety goggles, DPG54M-1D. It did NOT come with gun oil, so to my surprise I had to make a quick trip to the local home depot and buy a $2ish bottle of oil. Also included are the 25' air hose and a bump action trigger (Which I have not used yet).

Other Notes:
1. As you should realize, this kit does NOT come with a staple gun. That can be problematic in some furniture building, especially when applying lewan backing.
2. I bought a 50' hose so I could have two tools attached at the same time and it really comes in handy.
3. You will also want an air gun. They are great for cleaning off sawdust. Also, as I discovered in PC support at school, the air guns are great for cleaning out 8 years of dust from computers.


5 stars DeWalt Combo Kit
Excellent combination of heavy-duty nailers and air compressor kit. Dependable equipment and can do the job fast and efficiently.


5 stars Great little set
I purchased this set to finish putting up bead board and chair rail in my family room. Amazon had great shipping and everything arrived as stated.

The guns performed well as did the tank. The tank is smaller than I expected and it had to recycle often to keep up even with a moderate amount of nailing.

The tank is small and can be easily carried to whatever room or location you need to use it.

I am planning to order a larger one for my shed where I can use bigger tools on it.

It was a great value for the three items and I would purchase it again.


1 stars Might be great, but DOA
Unit arrived quickly. Got it all assembled and ready to test and discovered that the lever for the drain valve was broken off. I looked around some more and found the lever in the bottom of the packing container; the brass shaft was sheared off and can not be reconnected.

While unpacking I noticed some things that made me wonder if someone else had returned the unit--that now seems likely.

So now I am left with the options of trying to repack and return it to amazon or taking it to the nearest DeWalt repair center to be repaired. I hate the idea of keeping something that is defective from Day One, but the size of the box will make this a challenge to return.

Any suggestions?


5 stars This is great!!
I recently purchased this item and am completely satisfied with its performance and value. This is my first experience with a nail gun and compressor set, and can only say I wish I would have bought it sooner. It works GREAT!!!!!!! I've done a fair amount of finish carpentry work in the past, and can really appreciate the time savings this unit provides. It's compact, easy to carry, and and lives up to the high standards that my other Dewalt tools have set.
