help DeWalt DWFP12231 FAQ

Is the DeWalt DWFP12231 cordless?

No. The DWFP12231 is an 18-gauge pneumatic brad nailer, so it needs an air compressor and hose rather than a DeWalt battery.

What size nails does the DWFP12231 fire?

It drives 18-gauge brad nails from 5/8 inch to 2 inches long. That range suits trim such as decorative molding, casing, crown molding, and shoe molding.

What air pressure does the DWFP12231 need?

The DeWalt manual gives a working range of 70 to 120 PSI. Use a compressor that can maintain that range while the nailer cycles, rather than judging compatibility by tank size alone.

What is the DWFP12231 used for?

It is intended for finish carpentry and light trim work, where a thin 18-gauge brad leaves a small hole. It is not a framing nailer, and the 2-inch maximum is far shorter than the fasteners used in structural framing.
