Score: 88/100Rankings
The Bostitch F28WW is a heavy-duty pneumatic framing nailer designed for professional construction tasks, featuring a lightweight magnesium housing and exceptional driving power. It offers tool-free depth adjustment and high capacity, though it requires consistent oiling and lacks a dry fire lockout. Best suited for professional framers and contractors performing structural framing and sheathing.
The Senco F-35XP is a cordless electric framing nailer utilizing proprietary FUSION technology to deliver pneumatic-like power without hoses. It features a brushless motor and a high-capacity magazine designed for professional framing applications. While heavier than pneumatic tools, its convenience and consistent power make it ideal for job sites where mobility is key.
