Bostitch nail gun

The part that drives the nail came out when the nail fired and drove into the wood also. What do I need to buy to fix it?

You should be able to find parts for your model nailer doing a simple web search. Take out the allen screws on the back of gun, remove the back, inside the chamber you'll find a round metal disc, this is the plunger, the drive pin is attached to the other side, the plunger, and pin is one piece, when you remove it you'll see where the pin has broke off.

SOURCE: A Bostitch F28WW that spontaneously fires a nail when coupling.

When was the last time this tool was serviced? Bostitch makes an Oring kit for this part #N890RK I could not find the price. I would start by looking at the safety to make sure that is moves freely and is not bent. Then I would think about putting new rubber in this tool. First go to Stanleybostitch and navigate into tools and then support to look at a breakdown for this one. It is not that difficult to rebuild, if you do make sure that you put lube on the new orings and take your time rebuilding to ensure that you dont pinch one of the new rings. Hope this helps

SOURCE: Help with Bostitch N60 air nail gun.

If it is a N60FN you will have to install a new trigger valve P/N TVA6. Any Bostitch service center should have them.

SOURCE: Bostitch nail gun loss of pressure, won't fire nail

Hello. I can help you. The nail gun you have uses 18 gauge brads. I would use only original Bostitch 18 gauge.

The one MM of difference you mention is the reason why you do not have the pressure you did have. Get rid of those 31MM brads and get the 18 gauge. Home Depot carries the Bostitch line. I would go there or to homedepot.com

SOURCE: my bostitch 1664fn finish nail gun blows lots of air out exaust

Open the front and clear any jammed nails that are there. Oil the gun, push the drive pin back in if it didn't go back in when the front was off and try again. If there are repeated nail jam issues, try genuine Bostich nails.

Nailer drives nails too deep

n80 coil nailer is a very powerful nailer used for hard wood. If the driver is setting nails too deep, adjust safety foot to the lowest level. Install safety foot no-mar boot to lift the gun even higher. If still too deep, most likely the lower bumper inside the gun is worn-out or cracked. Easy test. Remove nails and connect air supply. With trigger depressed, push and hold the gun against work (I use an old rubber hose tightly coiled up). This will fire the gun but keep the driver down allowing you to examine the tip of the driver. The driver should extend out past the nose less than quarter inch. If the driver is extending too far, most likely bumper is worn out. If a large quantity of air is leaking out the nose of gun during the test, indication that lower bumper is cracked. Good luck.

My Bostitch N60 will not drive the nailes all the way. What can be the problem?

Usually, the driver extends past the nose of the gun about 1/4 inch. Easy test. Remove nails and dry fire the gun into very soft wood to make sure that the driver is not missing the tip. If good indention is made into the wood then suspect worn piston oring. Easy test for worn piston oring. With nails removed, point the nose of the gun up then down again. If the driver moves within the cylinder, replace piston oring. This gun needs about 90 to 100psi. If too much hose is used, pressure will drop. Check pressure at the hose by making a tester using a male quick fitting installed on a pressure gauge. Good luck

Gun will not shoot nails completely;no matter what wood,thickness,etc.they drive all but 1/2"

May be due to broken tip. Easy to check. Remove nails and leave door open. With door open, lightly tap the nose of the gun against coiled rubber hose or soft wood. The driver should stay at top position. If driver falls to bottom of the cylinder, replace piston oring. Now press nose of the gun against old coiled up air hose or soft wood and squeeze and hold trigger. The gun will fire and the driver should stay in the down position untill you release the trigger (if not single fire trigger, if single fire trigger remove trigger and press the trigger pin with finger). While the driver is down, make sure that the tip extends past the nose about 1/4 inch (if air leaks past the nose in this position, replace lower bumper). If the driver does not extend past the nose, replace driver. Good luck

The striker fires 2-3 times per nail on my Bostitch N62FN Nail Gun. The result is 2-3 holes per nail in my wood! Any ideas what could be causing this or how to resolve it?

The trigger is sticking. Lubricate all moving parts generously, inside and out, with WD-40.

I have Bostitch RN45 coil nailer. It sometimes does not feed nails. When I open the magazine the driver blade has not retracted. Gun does not leak, o-rings in drive section look to be in good shape and...

Causes of piston not retracting are as follows. Cracked /worn bumper, if cracked air will leak between piston and bumper. Try test, remove nails and dry fire gun against rubber or soft wood; depress trigger push gun against wood/rubber and hold in this position. Piston should stay down and no air should leak past nose. Worn piston oring, piston should not slide down cylinder under its own weight. Loose or missing check seal, remove cylinder and look for black rubber band around series of holes. Band should be in place and fit snuggly. Good luck

My Stanley Bostitch SB-1850BN brad nailer will not sink the brad. It leaves it about an eighth of an inch above the surface. Adjusting the head using the adjustment thumbwheel does not help. Any...

You may have a broken tip or bent driver. Remove tha nails from gun and dry fire into a piece of wood. You should see a nice little indention. If you continue to hold the trigger and the nailer against wood after firing, the driver will stay in the lower position for examination. Just fire into wood and keep gun against wood while holding trigger and lean gun to side untill you see the tip. If you see broken tip or no tip order repair kit that includes driver, or driver alone from www.bostitch.com or ebay. Good luck

Gun will not drive pins flush with wood. Wood is

What is your air pressure setting. A finish nailer such as this usually requires 70 lbs to drive flush. Adjust air to this value and test fire in scrap. Keep adjusting air presure until nail drives flush.
