brad nailer

Thin nail shooter

A brad nailer is a power tool that drives thin, small-gauge nails called brads into wood or other materials.

Used for finish carpentry, trim work, and delicate assemblies where larger nails would split the wood or leave visible holes.

Brad nailers are typically pneumatic or battery-powered: I used the brad nailer to attach the cabinet molding.
