What Is a Brad Nail Gun?
Brads are small gauge pin type finish nails formed with a “T” shaped head for striking. They are generally used in various woodworking projects and repairs such as: furniture, cabinetry, molding and trim installation, baseboards, chair rails, picture frames, ornamental decorations and numerous craft projects. Brads are installed using a brad nail gun, also known as a finish nail gun. Brad nail guns are manufactured as pneumatically (air) operated hand tools. Electric and fuel cell types are also available, but air driven is most common.
