Tools and Hardware Reviews of Porter-Cable FCN200 Pneumatic Flooring Cleat NailerCustomer Review: A great tool!!
I purchased the Porter Cable FCN200 to replace a Grizzly brand flooring nailer that died on the second day. The Porter Cable is a much better product. I have my compressor dialed in at 85psi and it never fails to seat nails properly. The issue that several people have mentioned about the last nail not firing properly is true, but I am keeping an eye on it and refill early to avoid the misfires. I put down 2800 sq feet of 3/4 oak in the first week with no problems at all. The hammer force needed to fire the gun is very light compared to some other nailers I have used.

![]() Durable, lightweight aluminum construction is heavy-duty without sacrificing comfort. |
And because the FCN200 is made from durable, lightweight die-cast aluminum, it's heavy-duty enough to complete tough jobs, yet comfortable enough for extended use.
The FCN200 uses a compressor to provide air at approximately 70-100 PSI. It weighs just 13 pounds and arrives preassembled with an angled air hose nipple.
L-Shaped Cleat Extends Floor-Life
Whereas traditional flooring nailers use staple fasteners that don't allow for wood expansion and can shorten the life of a floor, the FCN200 utilizes an L-shaped cleat as its fastener. This cleat allows the floor to contract and expand naturally, even as it holds the floor in place.
And because standard 3/4-inch-thick solid hardwood flooring requires 2.0-inch cleats for secure installation, the FCN200 accepts cleats measuring from 1.5 to 2.0 inches. This means you can handle flooring materials of various thicknesses, including thinner engineered woods.
Additionally, the hammer head is short enough to allow the compressor to get close to the wall for installation of starting rows.
