PORTER-CABLE 23-Gauge 1-3/8-Inch Pin Nailer (PIN138)

The Porter-Cable PIN138 23-gauge, 1-3/8-inch Pin Nailer delivers impressive performance with a lightweight aluminum body, making it easy to use all day. Featuring a reversible belt clip, this tool can be kept close at hand and ready for use. Ideal for cabinet makers, installers, furniture builders, and mantle builders, the PIN138 is perfect for light fastening and clamping applications, including small trim, decorative moldings, cabinet crown molding, raised panel doors, rope and bead molding, mantle building, and wood joining.

The PIN138 allows users to fasten materials that would normally split when using larger tools, providing greater flexibility and time-savings on projects. Designed with a maintenance-free motor, the tool requires no oil to be added. The dual-stack ring system in the motor is designed to minimize internal friction, resulting in longer tool life and eliminating the need to guess how much oil is required.

Weighing only 2.2 pounds, the PIN138 is built for impressive durability with its aluminum body and magazine construction. The reversible belt clip allows the user to keep the tool close at hand for when it's needed. The consistent power and penetration of the PIN138 is delivered through an internal piston catch that holds the piston-driver assembly at the highest position in the cylinder, ensuring maximum power on each shot and accurate nail setting. The PIN138 is designed to counter-sink a 1-3/8-inch nail into hard materials, such as oak.

The PIN138 offers the flexibility to use both headless and slight headed 23-gauge pin nails from 5/8-inch to 1-3/8-inch in length. The ability to use either type of nail gives the user a choice of keeping nail hole size to a minimum by using headless pins or maximizing holding power by using the slight head pins. Either type of pin nail will save time by reducing the need for clamping or filling holes due to their small size.

Featuring a dry-fire lock-out, the PIN138 will not allow users to fire the tool when there are no nails remaining, eliminating witness marks. A low nail indicator on the side-loading magazine also alerts the user when nails are running low. The tool automatically adjusts to different fastener lengths for easier loading and fewer problems with out-of-spec pins. The rear exhaust directs any potential moisture and contaminates away from the work surface, and the narrow nose with a removable non-marring tip helps prevent wood indentations.

The Porter-Cable PIN138 23-gauge, 1-3/8-inch pin nailer kit includes the nailer, 2000 headless pin nails, a 1/4-inch plug with cap, a wrench for internal access, and a carrying case. The kit is backed by a three-year limited warranty, one year of free service, and a ninety-day money back guarantee.
