BOSTITCH® Introduces Smart Point™ Nailers for Precision and Accuracy

Towson, MD – October 27, 2014- BOSTITCH® announces the introduction of the Smart Point™ family of finish nailers. Product Manager Jorge Silveira said, “After extensive research, our team of engineers developed a nailer that allows for quick and accurate nail placement through a tool nose design which integrates the contact trip.” The noses on these new finish nailers are 80% smaller than previous BOSTITCH nailers, and eliminate the need to push against the work surface to actuate. This allows users to fit the nose into narrow spaces, improving visibility for accurate nail placement compared to previous BOSTITCH nailers. Smart Point™ technology is available on four BOSTITCH finish nailers: 18 GA Brad Nailer, 16 GA Finish Nailer, 15 GA “DA” Style Finish Nailer and 15 GA “FN” Style Finish Nailer.

Designed for finish and trim work, the new Smart Point™ nailers tout a variety of additional features including an oil-free design to provide long life, and to help prevent staining the work surface. They also feature a selectable trigger system for sequential or contact actuation, rear exhaust to direct air away from the user, tool-free nail jam release for easy nail removal and Dial-A-Depth™ control for precise countersinking of nails. For ease of use, these nailers are also equipped with an air fitting, adjustable belt hook and pencil sharpener.
