The XNB06 is engineered to drive the most nails per charge in its class with up to 2,750 nails per charge with a 5.0Ah battery and up to 1,100 nails with a 2.0Ah 18V LXT battery (batteries sold separately). It drives a range of 16-gauge brad nails from 1-1/4" to 2-1/2” and features a magazine capacity of up to 110 nails. It features a "tool-less" easy to clear nose for fast nail extraction.

The Angled Finish Nailer features a non-marring rubber nose, and bumpers to protect the wood surface from being scratched or damaged and includes two removable no-mar tips with convenient on-tool storage.

Convenience features include a built-in L.E.D. light illuminates the work area, a belt hook that secures the tool when not in use, and an ergonomically designed handle with rubberized soft grip provides increased comfort. The Angled Finish Nailer was engineered to be cordless for increased convenience to eliminate the need for a compressor and air hose, giving the user greater mobility for a variety of applications.

It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.

For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
