Advanced Paslode Series-i Fuel Cell for IM360Ci Nail Guns [Pack of 1] -

Product Information

At the end of the 20 years patent period, other manufacturers started to enter the market with their own versions of the Paslode impulse cordless nail gun. Very similar copies were launched that fired identical nails with exactly the same design of fuel cell. Special event, club or membership offers, third party promotions or prices not available to the general public This Paslode Framing Nail gun review looks at how the Paslode 1st fix gas nailer has evolved over the years, explores the differences between the latest options – highlighting their advantages and disadvantages – and ultimately helps you decide which model is best for you. Another useful and unique feature of the 360Xi, and other SERIES-i nail guns, is their ability to fire NailScrews. The countersunk ‘screw’ is fired-in like a nail but can be removed and reinstalled like a traditional woodscrew.

It’s apparent that the best innovative ideas have been reserved for the SERIES-i tools, with the aim to encourage users to switch platforms.The improved battery was designed to allow the user to mechanically turn their framing nail gun on or off. With the older models, there was no on/off facility, unless the battery was completely removed. This is opposed to a finish nailer which is used to fix shorter, slimmer nails into wooden trim like skirting boards. This is often referred to as second fix. Paslode IM350+ vs IM360Ci: What’s the Difference? The Paslode IM350 has been the market-leading tool in timber to timber construction for over 30 years! The IM350+ Li-ion is the latest version of the tool. It has all of the same great features as the previous models, but it has been upgraded to Lithium battery technology for even better performance and efficiency! The battery’s charging time is cut by 30 minutes for increased productivity, with a battery on/off switch for optimum runtime per charge. The comparison table below shows the specifications for the two latest Paslode 1st-fix framing nailers. Are you looking to buy a Paslode framing nailer? There’s two models to choose from: the IM350 Plus or the IM360Ci.

The major changes were implemented when the original IM350 was replaced by the first IM350+. New technology improved reliability and increased service intervals. There was also a rubber soft grip handle for user comfort and a more effective nose probe.

After very little change over more than 20 years, the Paslode Gas Framing Nail Guns have evolved considerably more recently. Using a combination of gas from a small fuel cell and the spark from a battery, the patented ‘impulse technology’ produced incredible power, capable of firing a 90mm long nail with no compressors, hoses, or cords. The IM360Ci has the best power -to-weight ratio on the market, with an outstanding 105 joules of impact force. It has an improved aggressive probe for easy access in tight spaces, plus easy depth of drive adjustment without the use of tools. Total Tools reserve the right to terminate or amend the price guarantee policy at any time without notice. For Further Information The IM350+ Lithium provides an impressive 82 joules of impact force with a delivery rate of 2-3 nails per second. It has a multi-angled teeth nose probe which provides extra bite to stop the tool from sliding and ensure positive placement. It also has easy depth of drive adjustment via a pinch and slide action, and a dual-action rafter and belt hook which allows you to keep the tool within reach.

Potentially, the savings you make on purchasing the copy fastenings are lost in the future for additional servicing, repairs, and downtimes. Compared to the IM360, the IM350 has the lightest weight, most compact size, lowest vibration and lowest noise. It also has excellent balance and a non-slip soft grip handle for increased comfort and control. Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA. It works only in coordination with the primary cookie. In addition to a battery on/off switch, the IM360 features a ‘Start & Go’ sensor which automatically cuts off the battery power if there’s no movement of the tool for more than a minute. This intelligent, power-saving technology prevents the battery from losing charge when it’s not being used for up to 25% more shots per charge! It also has a one-touch LED battery and gas gauge which ensures that you never run out of power unexpectedly. You can see below how the two different platforms, IM350 and SERIES-i, have changed with the introduction of new upgraded versions. IM350 PlatformThe latest battery eliminated the potential for accidental firing and was also compatible with other Paslode nail guns, including the SERIES-i framing nailers, brad nail guns, and positive placement nail guns .

Estimated Delivery Timeframes Following the expiry of their impulse patent and subsequent market congestion, Paslode realised that they had to raise the bar, by immediately instructing their research and development team to develop the next generation in cordless nailing technology. The IM360Ci is Paslode’s most advanced 1st fix nailer! Like the IM350, it can be used on wooden materials for a wide range of applications, as listed in the table above. It’s powered by both a gas fuel cell and a 2.1Ah Lithium-ion battery for an unrivalled 13,000 shots per charge! It’s compatible with standard Paslode IM360Ci RounDrive nails (full round head), as well as the manufacturer’s innovative NailScrews for increased flexibility. It uses a Series-i gas cell which provides an extra 150 shots than the IM350+ gas cell.In truth, the nails were interchangeable between old and new, but the gas canisters were most certainly not. To avoid confusion in the marketplace, the obvious solution would have been to kill-off the original IM350 Nail Gun, but concerns over losing market share meant that the two different Paslode first fix platforms were to be produced and made available side-by-side. One word of caution though; many ‘copy’ nails out there contain very poor-quality gas canisters that prematurely clog up the nail gun and compromise performance and reduce service intervals.
