Overview
Coil-fed rather than strip-fed, the Metabo HPT N5008AC2 nailer is listed at 4.4 pounds. Coil nailers hold more fasteners per load than strip nailers, cutting how often a crew stops to reload.
Metabo HPT, formerly sold as Hitachi, has a long track record in pneumatic nail guns, and the coil-feed design on the N5008AC2 favors jobs with high fastener counts such as roofing or sheathing over occasional trim work.
- Metabo HPT N5008AC2 coil nailer
- 4.4 lb listed weight
Who it's for
Suited to roofing, framing and sheathing crews who value fewer reloads over a long work session. Less useful for finish carpentry, where a strip-fed finish nailer gives more control on visible surfaces.
Pros and cons
- Coil-feed magazine holds more fasteners per load
- Light at 4.4 pounds for a coil nailer
- No stated fastener size range or air pressure requirement
- Not suited to fine finish trim work
Performance notes
Coil magazines trade a bulkier, rounder profile for significantly more fasteners per load compared with strip nailers, which reduces how often a crew stops to reload during a long run of sheathing or roofing.
