Background
The Milwaukee Nailer 2741-20 is a cordless finish nail gun tool made by the company Milwaukee Electric Tool company. This nail gun was released in 2018, and is still sold in several home improvement stores, both in person and online. It is the most recent version of this particular device.
Being cordless, the Milwaukee Nailer 2741-20 is powered by a brushless motor that operates on interchangeable REDLITHIUM™ lithium battery packs; it is capable of sinking 2 1/2" nails through the toughest of wood with minimal device spin-up time.
The device includes Milwaukee's REDLINK PLUS™ system that aims to reduce the possibility of device damage due to overheating or overloading; being a battery powered device, there is generally a larger chance of overheating due to battery failure or malfunction than with an air/gas powered device.
Including a tool-free depth of drive adjustment knob and jam release for its bottom load, size 16ga nail magazine, the Milwaukee Nailer 2741-20 is designed for minimal user maintenance or adjustment.
The device weighs more than the average gas/air powered nailer due to its large interchangeable battery packs; their removal makes the device easier to transport in-between uses. These REDLITHIUM™ battery packs can also be interchanged and used on different Milwaukee Electric Tool devices.
Coming with a five year initial warranty, additional device information and support can be found at Milwaukee Tool.
