Product details
DBN901ZK — 18V LXT Brushless 3-1/2" Framing Nailer, 21° Round Head (Tool Only)
The Makita DBN901ZK 18V LXT Brushless Framing Nailer delivers pneumatic-like performance for heavy-duty framing applications without the need for a compressor, hose, or gas cartridges. Built on the versatile 18V LXT lithium-ion platform, this cordless nailer is capable of driving 2" to 3-1/2" (50–90 mm) round-head nails with smooth responsiveness thanks to its air spring mechanism and purpose-built brushless motor.
Featuring both bump and sequential fire operating modes, the DBN901ZK offers flexible nailing options for both rapid fastening and precise placement. An adjustable depth dial, built-in LED with pre-glow and after-glow, anti-dry fire protection, and a visible nail quantity window make this tool reliable, easy to use, and ideal for professional framing jobs on lumber, sheathing, and structural projects.
Compatible with Makita 18V LXT lithium-ion batteries and chargers (sold separately), except BL1815 and BL1815N (1.5Ah). For best performance and runtime, Makita recommends BL1850 (5.0Ah) or higher capacity 18V LXT batteries.
