Over the years, we’ve seen some pretty impressive tools from Porter-Cable.
However, the Porter-Cable FR350A Round Head 2-Inch to 3-1/2-Inch Framing Nailer may well be one of the most versatile tools that this prolific company has ever produced.

A Powerful Nailer
The bottom line for nailers – for most of us – is raw power. After all, a nailer can look great and have all sorts of bells and whistles, but if it doesn’t have sheer nail driving power it’s not worth a whole lot. The Porter-Cable FR350A Round Head 2-Inch to 3-1/2-Inch Framing Nailer more than delivers in this department. Operating between 70 and 120 PSI, this nailer can easily drive in nail after nail, at just the right depth to meet your project’s specs. And since it’s built with an internal piston mechanism, you can expect smooth operation of this nailer every step of the way.
Simple Adjustments
If you’re like us, you probably hate tools that are a pain to adjust. Think about all the time lost on projects due to tools that are a bear to adjust. Thankfully, there’s none of that fumbling around with the Porter-Cable FR350A Round Head 2-Inch to 3-1/2-Inch Framing Nailer. You can quickly adjust the driving depth with the tool free adjustment options. So when you’re changing from one section of your project to another, you can do it without having to fool around with complicated adjustment settings.
