Tacwise 0733 Master Nailer 400ELS Pro, Type 500 Electric Angled Nail Gu

Handy piece of kit to have in your tool box.

Doesn`t always fire pins all the way home , if you don`t already have a nail punch you will need one

Accurate and efficient delivery., very few jams and easy to clear when does.
Only down side rubber cap comes loose very easily.

Fab piece of kit, you need to apply a lot of pressure to nail hardwood as the recoil is strong

Keep the head of the tool pressed against your workpiece to ensure nails go in flush.

This is an excellent entry level mailer for small jobs and DIY. I am using it for home decorating as well as for small woodwork projects like building bird tables etc, Some reviewers have commented on the nails not driving flush. It is true that if force is not applied using both hands you may need to give the nail a final tap with a hammer to drive it home. To drive a nail home with the gun you must apply pressure with both hands. But for me this is not a problem as it still saves me a huge amount of time on the occasions when the nail is not flush. Moreover, if this is the price I have to pay for not needing a compressor, then it is worth paying. If it is a problem for you then upgrade to a compressor model.
I have always been put off from buying a nail gun due to the requirement to buy a compressor. With this electric nail gun I don’t need to bother with the hassle and expense of a compressor.
The box is excellent and is a very sturdy plastic. The gun itself is top quality. I have not experienced any nail jamming,
When loading smaller nails into the cartridge, you need to hold them in place when closing the cartridge to avoid them slipping upwards during close. But that is easy to do.
Conclusion:
This is an excellent product and worth every penny. I love it!

Does not come with a sample pack, but I had purchased 2000 40mm. I should have looked at the range as the 35mm galvanised would have been better.

I used this as quick fix and then followed up with screws and saved massive amount if time

I used this refitting a commercial kitchen and it worked really well, and saved me tons of time, securing 18mm ply and 9mm hardboard.
It’s easy to use, you just need to remember to apply enough downward square pressure to countersink the nails.
It’s not heavy, probably weighs less than a cordless drill, and I managed to secure the ceiling boards (although these needed a final whack with a hammer to sink since i defy anyone to put enough pressure with one hand whilst upside-down!)
I did find refilling the nails a little tricky at first but after a couple of goes I now have it down pat.

A good tool, probably not for the pro but for an enthusiastic amateur like myself it’s indispensable…

Highly recommended.

I bought this nailer to build a fire surround in Tulipwood. I used 35mm nails and found no problems unless I didn’t apply enough pressure at the time of firing. One thing to note, this takes the 500 series tacs (<40 mm) which is initially confusing as the gauge is 18ga and tacwise have labled their straight tacs the 18 series.

Great made life a lot easier fitting new skirting and easy to get jammed nails out of the gu

500 nails used 40mm to put up a ship lap fence not one jam, cant fault it, highly recommend this produc

Great tool for what I do in the house, I’ve fitted 3 false ceilings, and in half the time with this nail gun, quite powerful with a good kick when you fire it.
It’s a must for anyone with DIY skills

Love it !!! What a great bit of kit ! Needed to Tongue and Groove whole workshop – without this ,would have taken an age ! Am usually a tool snob and only buy A Brands – took a gamble on this and it paid off – even my neighbour who is a builder by trade , is going to buy one – total timesaver and quality tool – very happy with purchase !!!

Made a big job fantastically easy. Went through over 3,000 nails on one particular job over two weeks. Didn’t jam once and nails so easy to load.
I defy anyone using this machine not to say/think….”lock and load” when re-filling closely followed by “lets roll”

Great little nailer. I use this for fixing scotia beading around laminate floors mostly and glazing in wooden Windows. Works well as long as pressure is applied to the back firmly to stop the recoil stealing all the power. Never jams, can’t complain for the money. No charge time, lightweight and compact. Great in softwood.

Good top-end DIY model. Not sure if I would use if a pro. Best for interior trim fitting for stud walls. NOT a framing device, but doesn’t pretend to be. I used it to attach the planking on a shadow-box fence I built from scratch.

This is a hobbyist/DIY nail gun and not to be compared to Hilti or Paslode guns that retail at several hundreds of pounds. That said, its a handy bit of kit and does well in putting up trellis, skirting board and ply panels. Will take nails up to 40mm, as other reviewers have pointed out you will need to use two hands to get a flush fit with the longer nails, but in practice I haven’t found this to be a problem, and the great advantage is the speed that you can get the job done. It would have been nice to get a “starter pack” of nails with the gun, but you don’t, so you will have to order them separately: do so carefully as some of the smaller sizes are “add-on” items and will need to be ordered together with longer ones to make the most of Amazon’s free delivery.
The gun itself is nicely balanced and isn’t a strain to use. Its well built and has a good finish, it feels like a professional tool, not something built down to a price. The case has empty sections to allow you to carry several boxes of nails along with you. Inserting the nails into the gun is simple (though do take the time to read the instructions!). Other reviewers have spoken of the gun jamming; I haven’t experienced this but I have been careful to only use Tacwise nails as recommended.
For the price and build quality I am pleased with this nailgun. Recommended.

Great product, quick delivery, good price – what more could I ask!

Building an external home office. Have used this nail gun for 32×175 Feather Edge on to 47×75 Sawn Softwood using 40mm nails, 19×100 TGV Cladding internally with 30mm nails and for pinning softwood skirting and architrave.

Haha also just used the 40mm nails straight through 18mm OSB III no problem.

If you simply rest the gun on the workpiece then yes, the nails are left slightly proud. However, with a bit of pressure, and occasionally using spare hand if it’s free, the nails are driven home perfectly.

For this job I didn’t fancy spending a small fortune on a pucker gas nailer or nailing everything by hammer. This tool is saving me loads of time and for me it works just perfectly and I know I’ll use it again and again in the house.

There is only one niggle. The outer packaging card clearly says LONG POWERCORD. We’ll it’s not. Mine is 1700mm, which is too short for anything over shoulder height meaning you really need a single outlet extension lead. A definite design fault, needs to be 2.4-3.0mt as with a hammer drill or the like.

Hope this review helps cos it’s exactly what I was looking for before buying this last week.

I bought this gun to build my dog kennel / run. It saved me loads of time and I was really plweased with the gun. Really light and easy to use in fact the wife helped out and enjoyed using the gun. We found that when firing the longer nails it was best to steady the tool with the other hand by applying a little pressure on top of the rubber pad at the top iof the gun. We opted for the stainless steel nails (500 type) as we didn’t get through that many and wanted a really long lasting job. Tools is angled and really handy to gwet into corners like when I fixed the roof on the kennels.
