  • Milwaukee M12 Cordless 23 Gauge Pin Nailer 2540-21
    One interesting feature on the trigger that you may not know is that the M12 pinner has an electronic time-out on the secondary trigger. If the trigger is held down for more than 40-seconds and NOT fired the tool will shut off and you will need to recycle the trigger to activate it.
    I think this is a great feature but the time should be reduced to 20 seconds.
    Nice Features Not Easily Noticed:
    If you look too quickly you’ll miss some nice features on this pinner.
    Magazine Magnet
    When loading the pins into the magazine if you look close you’ll notice a small magnet. Missed by many, this magnet is your third hand when reloading or changing pin sizes.
    Tapered Tank Design
    Looking at the top of the tool you’ll see that the nitrogen tank tapers, back toward the front. This keeps the business end of the tool narrower and more compact, allowing better maneuverability, something we appreciate in a finishing tool.
    Non-Marring Tips
    Another nice feature is the non-mar contact tips. The reserve tip is clipped on the rear of the magazine. If you look closely at it you’ll notice it is a “half” tip. The half tip takes an already nicely designed front end of the tool and makes the tip area more visible. The half-tip is for the carpenters that argue that the tip blocks their line of sight of the feed-lips. [the area where striker and pin feed-thru tool]
    Depth of Drive
    The M12 pin nailer has a tool-free depth of drive knob. This is something that I immediately noticed and appreciated since all of my pneumatic pinners needed an Allen wrench to move the nose back and forth. The depth knob is faster to dial in and obviously way easier.
    Dryfire Lockout
    The M12 pin nailer has a magazine reload indicator which I never seem to notice or look at. It does have a dry-fire lockout which is useful for prevent unnecessary holes in our workpieces.
    Gas Tank - Power
    The pin nailer, and all of our Nitrogen Gas Spring Nailers, work very similarly.
    The cylinder has two parts that make up the tank: an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder. The space between those two cylinders is the area that is filled with Nitrogen. The striker & piston travel within the inner cylinder, using the pressure in the tank to provide driving power for the fastener. Each style of nailer (23GA, 18GA, Framing Nailers, etc.) are filled to different PSI’s.
    There are two reasons we use nitrogen instead of compressed air, and limiting condensation is one of them.
    1) when we fill the tools, during manufacturing or service, we pull a vacuum so the tank is completely cleared. We then fill them with 99.9% nitrogen so there’s essentially no condensation in it. We could do this with air using a compressor that separates condensation/moisture out of the air, but it’s easier and more effective & repeatable to do this with pure 99.9% nitrogen
    2) second reason we use nitrogen is to limit any seal permeation. Any sealed, pressurized vessel will experience some small level of permeation through the seals over time. Nitrogen permeates much slower than air. By using nitrogen we can keep permeation so minute that it would be many years (if ever) that a user/owner would ever experience degraded performance due to permeation
    ThxThis pin nailer, comes with a 3-year warranty and was designed to provide a user 3-4 years of heavy use without the need for service. That should equate to 50 to 70k barads installed.
    Runtime
    Runtime: This pin nailer can fire up to 750 pin nails, per charge, when equipped with a 1.5 Ah battery.
    LED Light
    In the past, I’d scoff at the idea of light on a nailer, especially a pinner. After using this on a project with mediocre lighting, I actually have to eat crow and admit that I really like this feature.
    Price
    The Milwaukee M12 Cordless 23 Gauge Pin Nailer 2540-21 sells for $249.00 as a kit at Ohio Power tool.
    The Kit Includes:
    • M12 23 Gauge Pin Nailer,
    • M12 CP 1.5Ah Battery Pack,
    • M12TM Charger
    • Contractor bag
    Using the Milwaukee M12 23 Gauge Pin Nailer
    I used the M12 pin nailer in the shop building a cabinet to cover a stove hood and also on a cabinet crown molding installation project.
    Besides the fact that this pinner is cordless and eliminates the hose, there are three things I like about this pin nailer:
    1. Well-Designed: items like the depth or drive, magazine magnet, LED light show thought and care went into this design. They look at this tool, innovated it, and tried to eliminate pain points for the user.
    2. Precision: It’s accurate! The double-action trigger and non-marring precision point tip provide sequential driving and accurate pin placement, with a great line of sight.
    3. Performance: When I think of performance I’m thinking of size, weight, and power. The M12 pinner is pretty close to my pneumatic nailer in size and punches pins into hardwood like nobody’s business.

      I prefer my cadex 23ga brad nailer. I keep looking @ other 23ga specs, but i think cadex's patent must still be viable.
      The cadex can shoot headless pins or brad nails up to 2 1/2" long. The brad nails are suprisingliy strong too. Its way better holding power than a headless pin.
      I had one recomended to me by an old colleague that i called up a few years ago for a consultation on a wood staircase. Dudes a master woodworker @ this point.

      On air tools, an adjuster like that is an add on that bolts in with the air connection. Its pretty much required if your running multiple guns off 1 air compressor.
      The one thing i never see on any 23gs except my cadex, is the ability to use 23ga headed brad nails. They must have a patent or something. It also shoots up to 2 1/2" like the big boy finish nailers. It was a game changer for me.
      I just picked up a m18 fuel 15ga V2, i do like the battery deal. 10x faster setup. Feels like a framing nailer compared to the 23ga! I like the grip rite nails too, they have a half round head for better holding power, instead of a t shape.

      @@multidinero, other manufacturers have cordless 23 Gauge Pin Nailer, e.g. Makita, Metabo, etc. The problem is that they suck, they’re not consistent in operation.
      If you’re not in the M12 platform this might be a good segue.
      There’s really no reason to wait around for other manufacturers to figure it out. How long will that take? Besides you’re probably not going to be on the same platform.
      Milwaukee has it figured out with the nailers. Their nitrogen charged delivery system is a way better design than Dewalt’s flywheel, besides they probably couldn’t use that system in a smaller tool. Just look at the size of the head on their 18 gauge Brad nailer.
      It just comes down to, do you want to spend an additional $200-$250 for a superior designed, reduced footprint and enhanced/consistent delivery system...or not. Because I doubt anything better will be coming out anytime soon.

      Even if I only used it once or twice a year it would be way better than dragging out the compressor, firing it up, then using my Ridgid 23 gauge nailer!!
      I took back my Ryobi 18 Gauge Nailer. Getting back the $100 I spent on it. Then I used the hack to get the Milwaukee Fuel Gen 2 M18 Brad Nailer, which was on promotion with an 8 amp HO battery. After returning the battery, then applying the $100 from returning the Ryobi nailer, I ended up paying an additional $55 for the Milwaukee Gen 2 Brad Nailer. It has definitely been a game changer for me.

    Great review! I l purchased the 18 guage version 2 months ago and it works great! Much better than the Ryobi where I had to dry fire it 20 to 40 times before it would it would actually shoot a nail. And for punch work, an airless nailer saves alot of time and frustration. I've watched one other review on this tool on you tube, but was waiting for another review since it's a fairly new addition to the Milwaukee line. Glad I came across yours. And if you already use Milwaukee products and have the same battery configuration on different levels, makes sense to stick with them. I am glad to hear that they include battery and charger with the nailer. It's been piece meal with some their tools for awhile.

    I got my first one about 3 weeks ago , overall I love it but , we still find ourselves digging out a Grex gun because of one major misgiving. By FAR our biggest complaint is that it shoots only up to 1 3/8" pins. Our Grex cordless and air both shoot 2" pins and there are so many times that extra 5/8" makes a huge difference with what we use them for. So we still have to smell gas from the Grex gun when we need it. Second problem is the little tips easily fall off of ours so know they will be getting lost a lot, and knowing Milwaukee they will want $20 bucks a tip or more. I hadn't even noticed the time out feature yet because who pushes a tip down for 40 seconds getting ready to shoot. So far other than that we love em so far. Second one arrived a few days ago. Milwaukee,,,, make a 2" model though.

    Very good review, im sold.
    Im new to milwaukee tools, i do a lot of kitchens and case work. Id be interested in getting their 1st and 2nd fix guns also as im tired of leads and compressor.
    I had a question about the 2nd fix gun, if i intended to use it for base/skirt boards and archives which gun should i get?
    Iv heard of 16 and 18 gauge. Im confused. Iv even heard of next generation.???
    Thanks

    Nice. One day it might come the the UK. Wonder if Milwaukee offer a service to re-gas it after a while. HiKOKI did that for my 16g one. It was losing power after a year and they said there's a little valve on board and it can be re pressurised. Came back shooting like new.

    The reason I didn't buy one at Home Depot because they simply did not sell the 23 gauge nails. They have plenty of 15, 16 and 18 gauge plus numerous staple options but not one box of 23 gauge. That's Home Depot for you....understaffed and under stocked

    After much waiting, I finally have this pinner, and it's great. One thing I notice which may be nothing... I seem to have many more pins go askew and poke out the side one way or the other. Maybe it's coincidence, or maybe I'm just noticing everything with a new tool in a way I don't with my tried & true pneumatic pinner.
    But I noticed several going askew in the vid too... do you have the impression you're getting more pokey outies with the new M12?

    The biggest question I have is how long this pin nailer or other Milwaukee Gen II nailers that uses nitrogen will hold up in terms of very light use and shelf life. I don't want to replace something I'm not using a lot every 3-5 years. lets say I only used 10,000 nails over a period of 5 years. Would the tool lose more pressure through age not just nails fired. I heard these things have seals too that can loosen if they get too hot. That's the biggest most important question I can think of when debating whether to buy these nailers. Not everyone will use it heavily.

I see there are indoor/outdoor categories, but I see reviews for some brands suggest they use a much softer material and that leads to more jamming etc, while other brands are harder material or stainless, and less prone to jamming. Are there specific reasons for using different material nails? Colors? Etc?
