Duplex nails are made for work that eventually needs to come apart. The second head remains exposed, making the nail easier to pull when concrete forms or other temporary structures are ready to be removed.
The new Metabo HPT Cordless Pneumatic 18V Duplex Forming Nailer brings that work into a cordless setup.
Made for Forming Work
This nailer is built specifically for duplex forming applications. It gives concrete forming crews, framers and contractors a faster way to install temporary wood structures without driving every nail by hand.
Once the work is finished, the exposed head of the duplex nail makes removal easier.
No Compressor Required
A traditional pneumatic nailer brings a compressor and air hose along with it. This model runs on an 18V T-Power Tabless Battery instead.
No hose means you can actually move around the jobsite without tripping over stuff. Plus, you don’t have to haul a bunch of gear out of your truck just to get started.

A Pneumatic Feel in a Cordless Tool
Metabo HPT made sure this nailer still hits like a pneumatic, fast, powerful, and easy to handle. It’s light enough that your arm won’t feel like you just lost an arm-wrestling match with The Rock after a day of fastening.
The nailer works with 5.0Ah and 10Ah T-Power batteries, giving crews the option to choose between a lighter setup or longer runtime.
Who Is This Nailer For?
This nailer is for the pros who are always building concrete forms or other temporary setups. It’s not here to steal your framing nailer’s job, but it’ll make duplex fastening way faster and way less of a pain.
