Abstract

See full text

A guide bushing for a reciprocating nailer includes a body having a cylindrical portion and a tapered portion. An aperture extends through the body for receiving a driving rod. The tapered portion of the guide bushing extends from the nailer and is configured to fit into tight spaces, such as corners and along the tongues or grooves of, for instance, tongue and groove flooring, to fully support a nail as it is driven into the tight space. The guide bushing can be a multiple part or multiple stage bushing for more flexibility and utility. The aperture through the center of the bushing can also be stepped to cooperate with a stepped driving rod for closer holding of narrower nails. A boot can be placed at the tip of the guide bushing to provide a cushion and further retention of a nail held by the nailer.
