Dual-handle flooring nailer for hardwood
The NuMax S18GLCNDH is an 18-gauge pneumatic nailer built for 3/8" to 3/4" tongue-and-groove hardwood floors. It drives 1-1/4" to 1-3/4" L-cleats and includes three interchangeable base plates. The dual-handle layout lets installers switch between a short grip and an extended reach to work standing or kneeling. A no-mar foot protects finished surfaces during every shot.
Verify air supply and fastener fit before use
Confirm the compressor delivers the pressure range the tool requires for consistent driving depth. Check that the 18-gauge L-cleats on site match the 1-1/4" to 1-3/4" length window accepted by the magazine. Ensure the three supplied base plates cover the flooring profile being installed. The Proposition 65 notice indicates the product contains chemicals listed by the State of California.
Aluminium body and heat-treated steel resist wear
The lightweight aluminium housing reduces arm strain during long runs while the heat-treated steel components withstand repeated impact cycles. The no-mar foot prevents surface marking even when the tool is dropped against finished boards. Dual handles distribute force evenly so the mechanism stays aligned under sustained daily use on job sites.

Questions about this item
What comes with the NuMax S18GLCNDH nailer and what must I buy separately?
The nailer includes three interchangeable base plates, a no-mar foot, and dual handles; you must supply 18-gauge L-cleats (1-1/4" to 1-3/4") and a compatible air compressor with hose.
Which cleat length should I choose for 3/4" tongue-and-groove hardwood flooring?
For 3/4" flooring, select the longest 1-3/4" L-cleats the tool accepts; shorter cleats are available for thinner 3/8" to 5/8" boards.
How does the dual-handle design affect daily use on a job site?
The short handle lets you work from a kneeling position while the extended handle allows standing operation, reducing back strain during long installations.
