The HiKOKI NR1838DKA 18V Brushless Metal Connector Nailer is a professional-grade solution for installing joist hangers, truss clips, framing anchors and structural metal connectors quickly and accurately. Powered by HiKOKI’s advanced Air Spring Drive System, this cordless nailer delivers true pneumatic-style performance — without hoses, compressors or gas cartridges.

Engineered for demanding construction environments, the NR1838DKA fires up to 3 nails per second and drives paper-collated twisted nails up to 38mm, dramatically increasing fixing speed compared to manual nailing or screw fixing methods. 

Weighing just 3.4kg, it is one of the lightest metal connector nailers in its category, offering improved manoeuvrability and reduced fatigue during repetitive overhead or high-volume applications.  

This kit includes the NR1838DKA Brushless Metal Connector Nailer, two 5.0Ah 18V Multi-Volt batteries, a fast charger and a carry case.

Features:

• Advanced brushless technology increases runtime, improves durability and reduces maintenance compared to brushed alternatives
