thanks for that, but they're galvanised and I'm looking for stainless steel. The same company have them, but only 64mm. Any further clues?

The fuel cell is what gives the paslode nail gun its force to fire the nails in , the gas fills a litle chamber in the machine and when ignited inside the gun forces the nail out like a bullet.

If it isnt broke dont bloody touch it until it bloody well is and if it is broke then make drawing of the connections before you remove the broken one and replace with a new one LoL

So the nail gun your using would be sort of like a regular gun that you shot bullets in? The same princples, only yours is gas.

Why use a fuel cell nail gun? Why not electric or cordless?

They are cordless but the explosive force is better with gas they use a battery too.

The alternative is air guns and that requires a compressor and noise.

Ok I get it now. Just never heard of using a fuel cell. US uses air guns besides the cordless and electric stuff. Would be interesting to see one in action.
