Tag Archives: Brad Nailer

In our shop, the DEWALT DWFP12231 brad nailer arrives like a quiet little workhorse—no batteries to baby, just clean pneumatic punch from 5/8-inch up to 2-inch brads. We like how it feels in hand: compact enough to weave around baseboards and crown, yet solid where it counts. When we’re chasing tight miters or tacking delicate trim, the depth adjustment helps us dial in a finish that sits flush instead of shouting for putty. It isn’t trying to be flashy; it’s trying to be dependable. In this review, we’ll look at how consistently it fires, how it behaves on different woods, and whether it earns a spot in a trim-focused toolkit.
