Overview
The Metabo NP35A is a 2 pound nailer built into Metabo HPT's pin nailer line, used for attaching thin trim and molding without leaving a visible hole. Its light weight makes it easy to control one-handed on finish work.
Pin nailers like the NP35A drive a very thin, often headless pin, which is why finish carpenters reach for them on delicate trim where a standard finish nailer would leave too large a mark. At only 2 pounds, it is built for extended overhead or one-handed use rather than heavy fastening. This listing does not specify air pressure requirements or magazine capacity, so those should be confirmed on the current product page.
- 2 pound tool weight
- Pin nailer for thin trim and molding
- Pneumatic, requires a compressor
- Part of Metabo's HPT nailer line
Who it's for
Suits finish carpenters and cabinet makers attaching thin trim, molding, or veneer where a small fastener and minimal hole are needed. Not a substitute for a framing or finish nailer on structural or larger trim work.
Pros and cons
- Light 2 pound weight for extended use
- Suited to delicate trim with minimal hole marks
- Metabo HPT build quality on the pin nailer line
- Requires an air compressor to operate
- Not built for structural or heavy fastening work
Performance notes
Pin nailers work by driving a thin pin fastener that leaves a nearly invisible hole, which is the main reason they're chosen for delicate finish work over standard finish nailers. Being pneumatic, it needs a compressor and air line to operate, and the 2 pound weight keeps fatigue down during long stretches of overhead or precision work.
