Score: 78/100Rankings
The Bostitch BRN175A is a lightweight pneumatic coil roofing nailer designed for driving 15-degree wire weld collated nails. It features an upgraded engine and feed system for improved performance, along with a dual-door magazine for fast reloading. However, the lack of specified operating PSI and air consumption rates makes full performance evaluation difficult.
The BHTOP CN45N is a pneumatic 15-degree roofing nailer with a high-capacity magazine and durable aluminum alloy body designed for professional use. It features an extremely low jam rate and heat-treated drive pins, though it lacks verified performance data and operating pressure specifications. Best for professional roofers performing large-scale projects requiring rapid shingle installation.
