Professional Air Punch Nailer Nail Remover, Pneumatic Nail Puller for Denailing & Recycling Wood

On nails that are really really stuck, the tool will fail and then the hooks do not fully retract. Just press the trigger and they'll reset back in place. I only had issues with really, really stuck nails. I just used a pry bar to get them unstuck by a few millimeters and then used the nail remover to pull them out. I've extracted dozens of nails so far, and overall, I love love love this tool. Pulls out the nails with lots of force and violence. :) I'm using a small pancake compressor, 2 gallons, with 100PSI. No issue.

Wow... This WAY exceeded my expectations. I had a huge pile of 2x4 & 2x6 boards with nails in them that was impossible to manage and keep neat. The Denailer Tool punches the nails up, so you can easily finish pulling them with the claw. You don't want to have it turned up so high that the nail punches all the way thru.... it tends to crack the wood.

I purchase the nail remover to help disassemble pallets which, because of the twisted shank nails that were hammered into mostly hardwoods, were a royal PIA to disassemble. It was when I had to resort to a 2 1/2' pry bar for the worst nails that I realized I was working too hard. I first bought the nail "shooter" which pushed nails back through from the sharp tip and THAT tool was simply amazing. However, when I only had access to the *head* of the nail it was no good. I then got this tool and here's what I found: (1) You will need to have pryed out the nail at least ½" (preferably more) in order to get this tool's "claw" into position and have a chance at success. (2) Crank up your psi to the tool to the max recommended - 120PSI. Any less and your chances of removing the really stuck nails goes way down. (3) Because the upward ramming against the nail head is what is needed, if you don't have at least that ½" of space, it just won't work. SO, you may need to pry the nails a little more if the tool isn't having any success. (4) Smooth shank nails should be a breeze assuming, of course, a minimum of ½" gap (preferably more). That said, longer nails in harder wood will always be more of a challenge (5), the tool will leave indents in the wood as it "shoots" the nail up and out. Be aware of this if you want to preserve the surface of finer woods. (6) The tool is amazing, truly, if you remove a lot of nails. I was able to complete in 45 minutes what first took me 4 hours and a lot work and pain. SO, it is worth it? I am going to be making crafts with old pallet wood so I anticipate using the tool frequently. For me, the answer is yes. If I were to use it infrequently, the $150-ish price I paid would be a little steep.

This works fantastic, safety guy at work was not at all amused.

This is fantastic for removing nails from old reclaimed wood. It is worth every penny and then some, makes quick work of getting the nails out. So nice, can’t say enough good about this. So glad I found it on Amazon, didn’t even know it existed. Great gift for woodworkers who seemingly have everything, bet they don’t have one of these.

I bought another brand of nail puller which was black and came up first in the list when sorted by average customer review. Shortly after I began pulling nails with it, the piston jammed on a smaller nail that I couldn't remove no matter what I tried, so I had to toss it. It left a bad taste in my mouth having to throw out a brand new tool with hardly any use. After some time passed and I got over my frustration, I looked for another brand, and settled on this one. I have removed about 100 nails of all sizes without a jam or issue of any kind. I won't go into how it works, lots of others have done that - you center it over the nail, hit the trigger and make sure there's something to collect the nail shooting out the other side. I suggest a trash can or cardboard box with something in it like rags, sawdust, trash, etc. because it does come out with force. Also, try to center the nail a bit instead of letting it ride up the side. I suspect that is more likely to cause jams with the pistons. I'm happy that I found one that works because I really did want to have a pneumatic nail remover that I could depend on. So if you had bad luck with the other one that's sold here, give this one a shot. I liked it so much, I bought the other two removers, though I haven't needed them yet.

This tool is a life saver. Cut my work in half.

A very nice tool very powerful and works very well. Most eject and now this will actually pull it if you can get the claw under the head. It is surprising how hard and fast it’ll pop a nail out! I really like having this!
