TOOL SPECIFICATIONS

All screws and nuts are metric.
MODEL
BRT130
FASTENER SPECIFICATIONS:
BRT130: Uses a 21° plastic collated stick nail in lengths of 3-1/2" to 5-1/8" (89 - 130mm) and shank diametes
of .148" to .165" (3.8 - 4.2mm)
TOOL AIR FITTING:
This tool uses a 3/8" N.P .T. male plug. The inside diameter should be .275" (7mm) or larger. The fitting must be
capable of discharging tool air pressure when disconnected from the air supply.
OPERATING PRESSURE:
70 to 120 p.s.i.g. (4.9 to 8.4 kg/cm
DO NOT EXCEED THIS RECOMMENDED OPERATING PRESSURE.
AIR CONSUMPTION:
The BRT130 requires 13.7 cubic feet per minute (388 liters per minute) of free air to operate at the rate of 100 nails
per minute, at 80 p.s.i. (5.6 kg/cm
required. For instance, if your fastener usage averages 50 nails per minute, you need 50% of the 13.7 c.f.m. (388
liters per minute) which is required to operate the tool at 100 nails per minute.
OPERATION
BOSTITCH OFFERS ONE MODE OF OPERATION FOR THIS SERIES TOOL.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP (Gray trigger):
The Sequential Trip requires the operator to hold the tool against the work surface before pulling the trigger. This
makes accurate fastener placement easier, for instance on framing, toe nailing and crating applications.The
Sequential Trip allows exact fastener placement without the possibility of driving a second fastener on recoil. The
Sequential Trip Tool has a positive safety advantage because it will not accidentally drive a second fastener if the
tool is contacted against the work – or anything else – while the operator is holding the trigger pulled.
MODEL IDENTIFICATION:
Refer to Operation Instructions on page 8 before proceeding to use this tool.
