Senco PC1195 Mini Palm Nailer

The Senco PC1195 Mini Palm Nailer is billed as a lightweight palm nailer. In fact, the nailer is 50 per cent lighter than the average palm nailer and at only 1.1lbs, that’s a conservative estimate. The nose of the nailer is magnetic so that the nails are held in place before they are driven allowing you to work with one hand in case you need to hold onto a ladder or other support while reaching the place to perform the nailing.

Although it is light in weight it is still capable of driving in nails from 2 to 3 ½ inches in length. Used for nailing in tight situations when fixing joist hangers, roofing or with fencing or decking situations. With the smaller of the palm nailers you might expect to feel a lot of vibration during operation but there is very little noticeable vibration with this model for its size.

Remember, the mini palm nailer is not the tool to use when there is a lot of nailing to be done. As a small nailer it is going to require quite a few hammer strikes to complete each nail and so it would simply not be worth the time or effort exerted to use the Senco PC1195 in place of a full sized palm nailer. This is a tool for particularly tight nail positions.

The Senco Mini Palm Nailer is a low cost nailing solution.

You can expect to pay around $42.00 for this palm nailer.

Cautionary Notes About the Senco PC1195 Mini Palm Nailer

This is a small palm nailer so you are not going to get the striking performance of a larger, more powerful palm nailer. The advantage you are gaining by buying and using this particular model is the ability to get into the spots that other tools cannot.
