## Description

Product Description Use this Metal Connector Nailer STRAPSHOT with metal framing hardware. Application is quick and precise. BOSTITCH framing nailer is lightweight and easy to maneuver. Depend on this Metal Connector Nailer strength and durability. desertcart.com Todays homes are stronger than ever. More knowledgeable homeowners, natural disasters, and stricter building codes have led the industry to adopt better ways of building houses. One important result of this has been the massive rise in the use of metal connectors. These metal connectors, whether it is in the form of a hurricane tie, joist hanger, or stud plate tie are used to strengthen the weaker joint areas of a home. Their popularity has given rise to a new necessity on the jobsite, the nailer to attach all of these metal connectors. The Bostitch STRAPSHOT Metal Connector Nailer (MCN-150) is the perfect tool for all types of metal connectors. Its exposed nail tip places the fastener point directly into connector holes for a faster, more precise application. It has a built in safety that prevents the tool from firing when not placed properly into the connector hole. The Bostitch STRAPSHOT Metal Connector Nailer (MCN-150) drives 1-1/2-inch, 35 degree Paper Tape Metal Connector Nails to secure any type of metal connector plate. These nails come specially hardened to ensure that if there is a misfire it can still drive through the metal connector plate safely. One of the features that set the Bostitch STRAPSHOT Metal Connector Nailer (MCN-150) apart from similar nailers is its size. Its compact design fits easily into hard to reach spaces including 12 inches on center studs (MCN150 only 10-1/2 inches tall). The tool is up to 50% lighter than competitive models for reduced fatigue and added maneuverability. The in line magazine also helps maneuverability by fitting into corners easily. Its low nail lockout feature prevents jams by preventing cycling with less than 5 nails for added safety. The tool also comes with hardened steel wear guards to protect the tool and adjustable exhaust to conveniently direct air away from the user. Finally, Bostitch has included a carrying case and our exclusive 7-Year Limited Warranty.

Review: Worth every penny - Awesome tool! Purchased for a deck project and was amazed at how well it worked. The nails protrude from the end so you can easily line them up with the hanger holes. Slight pressure against the nail 'unlocks' the gun to fire. It has very little recoil and being lightweight and small meant I could position it in tight spots while using my left hand rather than right and still put the nails where I wanted them. Work with all the various brackets including single joist concealed hangers. The gun was slender enough to fit in and set all the nails. The hanger on the gun works well and is tapered just enough that it slips over the beam without much effort but tight enough to hang securely. The only small issue which other have discussed as well is that the last few nails don't fire until another stick is put in to prevent jamming. Once I was aware of that feature, not really an issue. It comes with a nice case that actually has a depression for a palm nailer as well. Good combination since the gun only drive 1-1/2" nails and I used the palm nailer for longer nails in tight spots. Now I can keep them both in one place. So far I have gone through two cases of strip nails without a hitch. In the end it actually made the project fun and made quick work of all the hangers and hurricane straps.
Review: Did not disappoint. - Great product. Currently building my own home and installed over 200 rafter ties and joist hangers and this thing really was a time saver. For the money it was beyond worth it. Once you figure out what pressure setting puts the nails in properly, you’re well on your way. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND getting air tool oil for these types of tools and only putting in 2-3 drops in it before and after use. I have several air tools and have had them for years without issue because of putting recommended oil for each tool. Don’t waist your time nailing in anything by hand if you can avoid it. Work smarter, not harder. I’m a 15 yr power lineman and know all to well the effects of manual labor to the body and this tool was a welcomed addition to the toolbox. Unless you just are the lucky one to end up with a lemon, you won’t regret this purchase. Highly recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used for deck joist hangers and hurricane straps?  Is there enough nail selection to insure I find what will meet code?  Thanks.  
Scooter**
A: You may need to but use the mcn-250 for the toe nails on the hangers.  those are 2 1/2 inches as required by code and also wherever 2 1/2 inch ones are needed.   the model 250 accepts 1 1/2 inch as well so you might only but one gun    I find having both far better because you can have a second installer working    there are far too many nails to install in all these tecos.  get it on  go go go

**Q: Can you use this nailer with Hardi Plank siding driving 1.1/2” nails?**
A: This nailer is built to do a specific task. Attach metal ties. If you need to do siding I would suggest buying a siding gun.

**Q: what brands of nails will fit in the MCN150?**
A: I've only used the BOSTITCH PT-MC14815-1M 1 1/2-Inch x .148 Paper Tape Collated Metal Connector Nails (1,000 per Box) as found on Amazon.  They are black, not silver.  Haven't tried any others.

**Q: Does it still come with the rafter/belt hook?  Photo shows no hook and other questions regarding this are almost 3 years old**
A: Each gun I have ordered comes with a hook.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great strap nailer. Earns its cost in less than a day!
*by T***S on April 21, 2024*

Great work multiplier. So much more productive. But... hopefully nobody is learning how to use one from the pictures in this ad. Amazon shows a picture where they are using the 1.5" strap nailer for the diagonal on a joist hanger. Those got to be 3.5" nails according to Simpson.
