- 2- to 3-1/2-inch clipped head stick framing nailer
- Driving power : 1050-inch-pounds; pushbutton depth of drive

- Sets up as sequential- or bump-fire trigger
- Length : 20-inches; 7-year manufacturer warranty
Framing, siding, decking, attaching wood to masonry, you name it, this versatile and lightweight framing nailer from Bostitch does it all. This clipped-head nail gun is equipped with a patented pushbutton adjustable depth guide that sets the nail to desired depths quickly and conveniently. A depth-of-drive control of course means there’s no adjusting compressor pressure, but also that you don’t have to fumble for tools when you’re standing on a steep roof. Just set the compressor at 80 psi and adjust the depth as needed.
Weighing just 7.6 pounds, the tool handles great in tight quarters like attics and during otherwise shoulder-burning overhead tasks. The innovative design is a big plus when nailing top plates to floor joints or when crawling under that low deck to reinforce the new hot-tub. A factory installed sequential trigger and Bostitch’s exclusive Smart Trigger ensure optimal control and faster production. The trigger works as either a sequential or bump fire trigger. A notched, 16-inch layout indicator on the magazine helps achieve correct distance between studs in a matter of seconds. And, a lightweight magnesium housing means easy handling and unsurpassed durability.
The unit drives 2- to 3-1/2-inch wire-collated framing nails. One of the most powerful framers on the market, this nailer features 1,050 inch-pounds of driving power for tackling even toughest engineered lumber applications. And, bolt-on, steel wear guards with integrated rubber skid pads protect the tool from bumps and drops for durability and years of use. –Brian D. Olson

Having been in the construction buisness for almost a decade now I’ve had the opportunity to use 3 different models of the Bostitch 28 degree framing nailer, the N80, the N88, and the F28, I have to say that although this gun has many eye catching features as the rafter hook and shiny buttons, the gun just doesn’t perform like its predecessors. We have 2 F28s and they don’t seem to fire as well, the safetys seem more finnicky causing erratic firing and dangerous operations. The entire crew prefers the N88 over the newer guns. We have had Bostitch SWAT reps check out the guns and say they are operationally fine. I would trade an 88 for my 28 any day of the week. Its still a Bostitch which means its a great gun, but nothing like its predecessors
This is my first Bostitch product and I like the feel of it, and it has just the right weight for me and seems to do a good job. The one thing I don’t seem to care for is you are very limited on the different brands of nails you can buy for it. As far as the quality of the product it seems to be very good. I had a harbor freight nailer before and the quality was very poor, It lasted for 3 years, but was hit and miss and I would think twice if you are considering buying contractor series harbor freight because the bitterness of the quality last a lot longer than the sweentess of the price.
This is my second. Great gun but mine did not come with both triggers so I had to purchase the black for an additional $15. Works and looks like it should.
This product has saved me lots of time. I have not had a single problem with this nail gun. No misfires and the claws on the side really grab the wood. I wish I would have purchased one years ago.I love that the F28WW will shoot both clipped head and round head nails. This makes it very easy to find nails as some counties do not allow for clipped head nails. This gun will do both.
This is a great gun! I’ve used it for lots of stuff like building a shed, repairs and new remodeling projects. It’s got plenty of power to drive fasteners into engineered lumber and even the old dense wood used to build my house decades ago. The operation is simple as you might expect, and it is reasonably priced. Mine is made in the USA, and hopefully they still are made here.
My only complaint is that it doesn’t include a 1/4″ plug with it, and it doesn’t come with a case. Not that it’s a bad thing, but this thing is pretty heavy and it will give you a good workout. I’d take it over anything else on the market except the Max SN883RH framing nailer, but that thing cost almost 50% more.
