Why is my Bostitch GF28WW skipping nails?
- G
  gthomasAug 13, 2025
  If your Bostitch Nail Gun is skipping nails or has an intermittent feed, ensure you are using only recommended nails. Try cleaning and lubricating the tool. If the ribbon spring is weakened or damaged, replace it. Also, a worn or damaged pusher should be replaced. Make sure to pull the trigger all the way. If the temperature is too low, warm up the fuel cell under 120°F (50°C). Other solutions may include replacing the piston ring, piston, or cylinder piston ring. For further assistance, contact Bostitch for a replacement.
