Fuel + Nail Combo Packs Now Work With ALL Paslode Cordless Framing Nailers

 Permanent link

You heard that right. When Paslode introduced the Fuel + Nail Combo Packs, they only worked with the new cordless framing nailer, the CF325. But we heard from many Paslode customers still using older versions of our cordless framing nailer that they liked the convenience of never running out of fuel before you run out of nails, and they said “what about us?”

And we listened, so now every Paslode Fuel + Nail Combo Packs comes with a backward compatible twist-on adapter, allowing users of older generation Paslode cordless framing nailers to take advantage of the convenient combo pack concept. And not to worry, loading the fuel cell is as easy as twisting off the top on the fuel cell and twisting on the adapter, no snapping necessary.

Better still, now all Paslode cordless framing nailers can achieve optimized performance with the PowerBoost™ Black Tip Coated Nails (3” and 3-1/4”), which are only available in the Fuel + Nail Combo Packs. The PowerBoost™ Black Tip Coating is a proprietary coating that allows Paslode cordless framing nailers to drive the nail flush into the hardest engineered lumber, such as LVL.

The new PowerBoost™ Black Tip Coating on these nails also translates into better performance at higher altitudes in parts of the U.S. where, typically, combustion-type framing nailers have had drivability issues due to the lack of oxygen. These nails finally allow remodelers and builders in high altitude markets to benefit from the freedom of cordless framing nailers without the hassle of hoses and compressors. 

Fuel + Nail Combo Packs come in two sizes: 1,000 nails with one Quicklode™ fuel cell and one adapter, or 3,000 nails with three Quicklode™ fuel cells and three adapters.

You’ll find them where ever you buy your Paslode nailers and nails.
