I just picked up an “Atro Helen 90 C” Framing nailer. I’ve looked all over the web and can’t find this model referenced anywhere. Has anyone heard of this beast? Where can I find nails for it? Does anyone have a manual for it?
Thanks
Les

Few people understand it. Nobody agrees what it is, how to learn about it, or who's responsible for it. It has never been more important

Good morning Les:
Try googling on just "Atro Helen", you will get 13 hits including http://www.contractorstools.com/camp_ns_framing_nails_FS288001AV.html and http://www.chpower.com/catalog/cdetail_unit.asp?itemid=200108
These pages list nails for your gun and the Bostich NI00S, N86S, N80S & N16. They are basically clipped head, 28 degree paper collated nails
I hope this helps,
Dennis
Dennis,
Thanks for getting back to me so soon. One thing I've figured out about the Helen 90C is that it requires a Full Round Strip nail, and I'm pretty sure they are 28 degree, although I could be out a degree or two.
I can't seem find anything by that description.
I'll keep hunting....
Les
Try looking up Carlson Systems.
The MaxUSA site also has nail links.
