HiKOKI NR1838DKAJXZ 18V Brushless Metal Connector Nailer Kit – 2 x 5.0Ah Multi Volt Batteries

The HiKOKI NR1838DKAJXZ is a high-performance 18V brushless metal connector nailer engineered for rapid, precise installation of metal connectors and brackets. Designed around HiKOKI’s advanced Air Spring Drive System, this gasless nailer delivers consistent, pneumatic-like performance without the inconvenience of hoses, compressors or gas cartridges.

Lightweight and compact at just 3.4kg, the NR1838DKAJXZ is one of the lightest metal connector nailers in its class, offering superior control and reduced user fatigue during repetitive fixing tasks. Capable of firing up to 3 nails per second and driving twisted nails up to 38mm, it significantly increases productivity on-site — up to 9 times faster than manual nailing or screw driving.

The Strap-Tite probe tip ensures accurate nail placement into pre-punched metal connectors, reducing misfires and improving fixing reliability across structural metal applications.

Supplied complete with two BSL36A18X Multi Volt 2.5/5.0Ah batteries, UC18YSL3 charger and Stackable System Case 4, this kit is ready for professional use straight out of the box.
