January 26, 2023

BRASELTON, GA. (January 26, 2023) – The Pro Preferred Brand of Pneumatic Nailers*, Metabo HPT today announced the newest additions to its popular pneumatic nailer lineup with the 3-1/4” 21° Framing Nailer with Aluminum Magazine & Depth Adjustment (NR83A5Y) MSRP: $309.97 and 3-1/4” 21° Framing Nailer with Aluminum Magazine without Depth Adjustment (NR83A5S1) MSRP: $299.97. Additionally, this high-grade Aluminum Magazine is sold separately (part # 890624) MSRP: $79.97, and can be installed on any NR83 model that is out in the market today for added versatility based on the user’s preference.

Part # 890624 - 21° Aluminum Magazine for Metabo HPT NR83 Series Nailers fits any Metabo HPT NR83 series pneumatic nailer allowing for the flexibility to easily replace a steel magazine to aluminum, based on the user’s preference. The Aluminum magazine part is composed of high-grade aluminum alloy for exceptional durability. The Aluminum Magazine capacity is 50 -70 nails (2 strips).  It accepts 21° plastic collated nails ranging in length from 2” up to 3-1/4” in length and .113”-.131” in diameter.

The new pneumatic nailers offer the same features and performance as the legendary NR83A5 series, but they are now equipped with Aluminum magazines that provide exceptional durability and protects against jams. 

NR83A5Y 3-1/4” Plastic Strip Collated Framing Nailer with Aluminum Magazine & Depth Adjustment has a tool-less depth of drive adjustment that comes in handy for improved control and flexibility when fastening into various types of wood. 

NR83A5S1 3-1/4” Plastic Strip Collated Framing Nailer with Aluminum Magazine comes without the Depth Adjustment feature.

Both nailers feature Metabo HPT’s unique cylinder valve driving system, which uses the cylinder to open and close the valve allowing for faster action. The cylinder valve system is also self-cleaning and highly resistant to grease and grime buildup which adds to the simplified low maintenance professionals appreciate. Fabricated with industrial quality parts (no plastic) - this added durability helps get more done with less downtime. 

These new A5 framing nailers with Aluminum Magazines accept 21° plastic collated nails ranging from 2” – 3-1/4” in length and .113-.131” in diameter. The Aluminum magazines can hold 2 strips of nails at a time and feature a locking feeder system to make replenishments quick and easy. Capable of driving 3-1/4” nails into even the toughest of engineered lumber with ease, their performance is only enhanced by their convenience. Their hardened claw tips resist wear on the nose and minimize slippage when driving at an angle or “toe-nailing.” They come with factory installed ¼” industrial fittings, and the ideal operating air pressure is 70-120 psi. 

Heavy-duty rafter hooks are included with the A5 series and can be mounted on the left or right side of the nailers for convenience. In the event of a lodged nail, the open nose design provides easy access to clear the jam. Ergonomic long-lasting non-slip rubber grips on the handles help maintain a secure hold. These nailers weigh just 8.8 lbs or 9.1 lbs if the rafter hook is installed and offer an incredible power to weight ratio. They balance in the users’ hands for minimum fatigue during extended use or overhead applications. 
The new A5 Series Framing nailers with Aluminum magazines deliver legendary durability and reliability professionals in the residential and multifamily building industry have come to trust. The nailers come with Metabo HPT’s industry leading 5-year warranty, Aluminum magazines, a rafter hook and safety glasses.
