A long, long time ago we took a look at the Paslode CF325. Today we are going to show you the next generation, the Paslode CF325XP.
For me and others, Paslode has always been a top brand for nailers. Their roofing, framing, finish and other nailers are one of the best nailers around. The reason they got this image is because they have always made very dependable and quality nailers. Now they just released their next generation nailer, the CF325XP. As you can guess by the model number being pretty close to the same, the tool is pretty much the same with a couple of differences.
The new nailer produces 15% more power, which means more work and less hassle when nailing into harder wood. One of the main complaints with their older model was the weather. When temps got down low, you would have to warm up the tool or it wouldn’t work. With the new model this will even work down to temperatures of 14F. With the new nailer they say you get 9,000 shots per battery charge. While we haven’t tried this, we will take them for their word.
When combining this tool with their new framing nails and fuel packs, you can have a pretty nice system that will allow you to get a whole bunch of work done. I know some people don’t like a fuel system, but that is something you will have to decide for yourself.
Gas has a shelf life lithium ion batteries don’t. I’m in the battery nailers are best camp.
I like the fuel in the nailers, maybe it’s just the sound but I feel like it kicks some major you know what, not knocking the Dewalt nailers either but them paslodes are just cool.
I love this nailer, it is wonderful. I like the fact that it uses gas, there is no loud air compressor, or you don’t find your self running out of hose length. This tool is one of my favorites.
I loved Paslode when they first came out. I thought this tool was going to free me the coord and hose. And it did. I never moved on beyond the framer because I was always running back to,the store for more consumables. Then the battery ones arrived, and with any new tech you move on.
The pasloads are awesome but I would rather go with a Dewalt battery powered nailer

I love this nailer
Being from the north I personally wouldn’t be the first to try this gun based on the previous model’s performance in the cold. Call me old school but I still prefer the power and reliability of the tried and true pneumatic nailers.
The first gen was so ugly, this one looks some much better great styling
I used this nailer to finish a basement. It was great, I don’t think this will put pneumatic nail guns in there grave but I think it is the framing nailer of my Choice. Paslode nail guns make some of the best tools
really love Paslode as they are powerful and nail through even old OAK easily DEWALT DONT!!
What I don’t like is they are the most expensive gun of all and the first fix gun misfires a lot including the newer version which by Paslode is not supposed to.
