Industry’s best gets even better with improved features and new
fuel-cartridge design.
The Paslode® cordless
nailing story goes back more than two decades. During that time, the company
has repeatedly earned accolades from end users, trade groups, industry press
and others for its innovative cordless Nailers and staplers. Last year, one
respected industry publisher named Paslode’s cordless 30-degree framer “Best
Overall Choice” in its end-of-year tool guide issue because of the tool’s
outstanding maneuverability, performance and convenience. This year, Paslode is
making the “best” even better with the introduction of the ground-breaking
CF-325 Cordless Framing Nailer.
“Our previous model was already the most
popular cordless framing nailer in the nation,” says Paslode product manager
Jacek Romanski. “The new CF-325 takes everything that was great about that tool
and incorporates some key improvements to address the wealth of feedback we
have gathered from our end-users.”
Those improvements begin with productivity
in mind. The most notable enhancement is a newly-designed nosepiece that is far
more aggressive than its predecessor. The new nosepiece allows sure-footed
toe-nailing at any angle.
Paslode’s flagship
cordless framer is also re-engineered to deliver dramatically faster firing
than its predecessor or competitive tools, particularly in hard-to-reach
spaces. The CF-325 drives reliably from the first nail to the last, with no
delays between drives. The end result is greater productivity in any situation.
Another major
improvement can be found at the heart of the tool – the fuel cartridges that
power Paslode’s drive system. The company’s new QuickLode™ Fuel System employs
a completely re-designed “no-step” canister that eliminates the pre-use
snapping, twisting and aligning required by previous models. Users need only
drop the fuel into the tool, close the fuel compartment door and begin nailing.
The new fuel is
guaranteed to deliver at least 1,200 drives and offer an 18-month life. And,
because of the new fuel design and an internal upgrade to steel O-rings, the
Paslode CF-325 can go five times longer (50,000 drives) between recommended
cleanings. When it is time to clean the tool, a re-designed air filter access
door makes the task faster and easier than ever before.
Along with the debut of its new fuel
design, Paslode is introducing an exclusive Fuel + Nail Combo Pack system to
keep users from ever running out of fuel. Packs include fuel cartridges and
exclusive Paslode RounDrive® nails, so users no longer have to worry about
being caught on the jobsite without fasteners or fuel. Paslode offers the Fuel + Nail Combo Packs in
packs of 1000 nails (+1 fuel cartridge) and 3000 nails (+3 fuel cartridges).
The Paslode CF-325 Cordless Framing Nailer
is optimized to drive Paslode RounDrive 30o paper tape full head
nails from 2” - 3.25” in length and from .113”, .120” and .131” in diameter in
smooth, ring shank, brite and hot-dipped galvanized finishes. Nail capacity is
up to 47 paper-collated fasteners (one strip + 5 nails).
The Paslode CF-325 is also the most durable
cordless framer on the market. Steel O-rings offer best-in-class performance
and significantly reduce downtime due to maintenance. The integrated heavy-duty
utility hook is specifically designed to take jobsite abuse. Meanwhile, a
comfortable, yet tough, non-slip grip reduces wear and tear on the user.
The CF-325 comes complete with a rugged
carrying case, rechargeable battery and charger, one canister of degreaser, a
tube of cordless oil, safety glasses and a comprehensive owner’s manual. The
tool retails for $399 and is covered by a one year full warranty and a five
year limited warranty.
Paslode’s CF-325 is
slated for national retail availability in March 2008. To learn more about the
