The Max CN565S3 delivers what Montana siding contractors need most: a 5-pound magnesium body that holds 400 nails and runs all day without internal maintenance. At 5 lbs weight with 400 nail capacity and magnesium housing construction, this nailer solves the two biggest headaches of high-volume siding work — constant reloading and tool weight fatigue.
The maintenance-free, patented self-cleaning end-cap filter sets this tool apart from the competition. No more stopping mid-job to clean out debris. No more performance drops from clogged internals. The filter traps contaminants automatically while the tool keeps firing at 0.05 SCFM air consumption — remarkably efficient for a coil nailer.
Technical Performance That Matters
Users report it performs better ‘all around’ compared to Bostitch and Hitachi models. One contractor loved the first one so much, they ordered a second one within a month for daily high-volume use.

The slim guide contact arm for reduced nail bending and precise placement proves its worth on cedar siding where every misfire shows. Combined with the no-mar contact tip to eliminate driver marks on siding, this nailer protects expensive materials while maintaining speed.
Built for Montana’s Demanding Jobs
Applications include siding (high-volume installation), fencing, exterior trim, decking and roof decking, sheathing and sub-flooring, and furring and strapping. That covers 90% of what Montana contractors tackle from April through October.
The tool accepts both wire-welded and plastic-sheet collated fasteners, giving contractors flexibility based on local supply. Standard 1/4” NPT pneumatic connection with recommended operating pressure 70-120 PSI means it plugs into any job site compressor.
Safety features include the anti-double fire safety trigger for enhanced user safety — no accidental double shots when working on ladders or scaffolding. The 360° easy-twist adjustable air deflector keeps exhaust away from your face regardless of nailing angle.
Real-World Performance
“The only coil siding gun I’d ever use now… performs the best all around compared to Bostitch and Hitachi” says one reviewer who put the tool through daily commercial use. That’s contractor validation that matters more than spec sheets.
The integrated dial allows for precision depth adjustment without tools, critical when switching between different siding thicknesses. No fumbling with Allen wrenches while balanced on staging.
5-Year Limited Manufacturer Warranty backs the tool against defects. But the real warranty is in the field reports — contractors buying second units after seeing how the first one performs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What nail types work with the CN565S3? The nailer accepts 15 degree coil nails from 1-1/4” to 2-1/2” length in .083” to .099” diameter, both wire-welded and plastic-sheet collated.
How does the 5-pound weight compare to other coil nailers? At 5 lbs with magnesium housing, it’s among the lightest full-capacity coil nailers available. Most comparable tools weigh 6-7 pounds.
