The GCN150 gas-actuated concrete nailer is a portable fastening tool for attaching light-duty fixtures such as drywall track, furring strips, hat track and angle track to concrete, steel, CMU and metal deck. The GCN150 has a portable gas fuel supply that does not require electrical cords or hoses. The GCN150 sets up quickly and offers maximum productivity. With a 500 shot-per-hour capacity and a pin jam release door, the GCN150 makes fastening pins fast and easy. Additional attributes include two-step pin loading into the magazine, light and well-balanced weight, a battery indicator light and a sure-grip rubber handle pad.

GDPSGDPS STEEL PINS
The GDPS pins are designed to work in the GCN150 and GCN-MEPMAG gas-actuated nailer tools for installation into A36, A572 Grade 50 and A992 structural steel. The step-shank pin, with smaller-diameter tip, facilitates easier penetration into the steel, while the larger diameter upper shank provides more shear resistance and successful installation.

GDPSKGDPSK Spiral Knurl Gas Pins
GDPSK gas pins are designed for attaching plywood and OSB to cold-formed steel studs. The spiral knurl provides a positive lock and resists back out. Installed with the GCN150 concrete nailer or GCN-MEP (with magazine) concrete nailers, the GDPSK-138 gas pin provided faster installation and set up times, which contributes to lower labor costs. The hardened pins quickly and cleanly pierce the cold-form steel and leave the pin head flush with the wood fixture. The 1 3/8" length pin can be used for 1/2"–3/4" thick plywood, and 14–22 gauge steel.

GWL-100 Lathing Washer and GMR-1 Magnetic Ring
The GWL-100 lathing washer is used with the GCN150 tool and attaches lath to the wall surface for overlaying scratch coats, brown coats and stucco. The washers are held onto the nose of the tool with the GMR-1 magnetic ring and are attached to the substrate (including concrete and CMU) with GDP pins, which fasten through the washer. No extra tools are needed to install the magnetic ring to the nosepiece of the tool.
Lathing Washer and Magnetic Ring
Lathing Washer and Magnetic Rings are sold seperately.
