Background
The Makita Nailer XTP027 2017 is a nailer that was released as part of Makita's 2005 launch of cordless 18V tools. It is designed for the installation of trim, baseboards, and other similar projects. It drives six different pin lengths into the wood. The rapid charge of the nailer's Lithium Ion batteries reduces the time spent charging and the time required for a project's completion. Its cordless function means that the Makita Pin Nailer allows for work to be done without the limitations or interruptions of a cord.
The pin nail lengths compatible with this nailer include 5/8”, 11/16", ¾”, 1", 1-3/16", and 1-3/8". It is not compatible with 1-1/4" pin nails. The magazine capacity is 120 pins.
The Makita nailer can be used for home projects or construction projects by carpenters.
Customers praised the weight-to-power ratio of the Makita Nailer and the efficiency gained from it being cordless, as well as a minimum occurrence of jamming and misfiring. Customers have also complained of frequent jamming, misfiring, and the lack of strength of the Makita Nailer to drive nails into harder, denser species of wood.
