Nail gun comparison - Which should you buy?

Published: 2021-03-17 | Updated: 2024-07-27

In a test carried out to compare the design, performance and functionality of some of the best nail guns on the market, CELO's FORCE ONE was ranked the best.

The test looked to measure the performance and the efficiency of 4 nail guns from leading manufacturers comparing them against characteristics such as weight, comfort and the success rate of shooting. 

Graph Fixings over time

Designed for overhead electrical and sanitary installations the FORCE ONE was found to be the lightest nailer with only 3.67kg (8.09lbs), the most powerful with 105J of energy, and able to shoot more than 2 times faster than the battery-powered nailers. The battery charge of the FORCE ONE was also superior, being able to shoot up to 5 times the amount of nails per battery charge. All this adds up to a nailer that is able to shoot 2.84 nails a second which is 2 times faster than some of the other nailers tested, saving the installer a lot of time. 

Not only is it lighter and more powerful, the design of the FORCE ONE gas nailer also allows the installer to be more agile. It's slim nose makes fixing in those hard to reach areas easier and its ergonomic handle provides comfort for long periods of time.
