11" Nail Puller Pliers - NP11,Red/Black

I have a LOT of tools. If I need a tool for a project I do some research and buy it. I hadn't used one of these before but it looked like a good design, and I own quite a few Crescent tools. All I can say is this is the best tool over for pulling nails. I've used it for demo work, remodeling, tearing apart pallets for disposal, and it just keeps working and working. It's very quick to use and I haven't met a nail yet I couldn't pull with this thing. If you're going to be pulling nails for a project do yourself a favor and just buy it! Wish I'd found it a few decades earlier.

I bought these to use in tearing down an old house. The house was full of old ship-lap lumber in the walls, teardrop wood siding, tongue and groove ceilings and floors, etc. that I am using in my house remodel. What isn't used will be sold for reclaimed wood to other folks with similar projects. This kind of aged lumber is valuable, but anyone that's ever gutted an old house knows how difficult it can be to get the wood out without tearing it all to pieces. A cats paw-type pry bar and framing hammer is what I was using at first. That leaves gouges in the wood, is more likely to chip out, and is not very fast. With these specialty pliers I can pull down a board and have all of the nails out in a couple of minutes, with much less damage to the wood than with any other tool I've tried. They just work. If any part of the nail is sticking out 1/16" of an inch or so, it's coming out. It does a much better job and can get to nails that a framing hammer or even a thin pry bar can't. And it doesn't mar the wood nearly as much either. You still have some tear-out around some of the nail holes, but that is to be expected with nails and wood that have been in place for 80+ years. It's less tear-out than with the other tools I was using. These pliers paid for themselves in the first 10 minutes in just the lumber saved and cut the time in half of pulling and de-nailing a board.

It takes a little time to learn how to use it, and I’m not a natural when it comes to using carpentry tools. I’m a 73 year old retiree who likes to tinker and do as much as I can to maintain our home. I’m using this tool to pull nails from 2X4s in my 30 year old deck. Every summer I replace some 2X4s that aren’t wearing well and this year I’m replacing 13 that are on average about 10 feet long. That’s a lot of nails. What do I like about the tool? It’s self contained. I don’t need to use it with anything. It grips the nail head, provides leverage to make the extraction possible, and is very heavy duty. It is so well designed and I love the feeling that it’s been in use, probably not very different from what I bought, since the 19th century. And it’s priced right. Thanks to YouTube I can watch it in action and since I’m removing approximately 250 nails, getting to learn how to use it in about an hour is a definite plus. I had never heard of a slide hammer before, and now I’m an advocate. In 2 days I’m nearly done with the job and I’m looking forward to next summer when I get to do it again!

great nail puller

I break down pallets that use twisted nails. And it pulls them out with very little difficulty. I am often surprised at how easily the nails come out.

It takes a couple times to learn how to use it but once you do it speeds up removing sunken nails. I am pulling up OSB flooring in the attic to air seal and add insulation and it worked great for this. I did a section without it and it took around 2 hours to remove nails and with this tool it took around 30 minutes to do the same amount of nails. I just worry about how long the tool will last since you are banging it into wood all of the time but so far so good. How to use it: Angle it so that the jaw without the kickout lever is angled towards the wood and nail but far enough away for it to come at an angle. Use the impact portion of the tool and pound the one jaw section under the nail head at an angle. Once the one jaw edge is under the nail head use shift the angle of the kickout level down which should then grab the nail head and pull it out. The only issue I ran into was if I didn't put the one jaw edge far enough away from the nail edge before starting it you will pound the nail head in further instead of getting the jaw edge under the head.

Muito bom. Resistente. Consegue retirar pregos grandes enterrados na madeira e sem cabeça.

Der Nagelkopf muss anderweitig freigelegt werden, damit die Zange greifen kann. Nur mit Einschlagen funktioniert es nicht, nicht mal in Fichtenholz. Ich habe zum Freilegen des Nagelkopfes eine Holbohrkrone, Durchmesser 20 mm verwendet. Einsatz von Stechbeitel ist auch möglich, aber mühsam.

Arrived on time but packaging was broken open. Used one of these nail pullers when I was 18 years old, now in my 60's and using them again. Quality has not changed in 40 plus years and are just as solid now as they were then. Best nail puller I have ever used and without causing too much damage to the surrounding wood. They pull nails of any size, shape and even without heads. I have a deck to repair this spring and have to pull a lot of nails, but with the price of lumber right now, I have to save as many 2 X 6 X 8 boards as I can and this definitely will do the job with no issues. Well worth the money spent and would definitely recommend to anyone.

This is an amazing tool, my Father had one when I was a boy and I was exposed to using it early in my young life. I always said I would buy one someday. This tool is not hard to use and it is very strong and works great. I have put it through the test and it's amazing. I've read a lot of reviews of people trying to use this Crescent Nail Puller. A Lot of them are complaining about its functionality, to be honest it functions just fine. The first time I used it, I drove a 3½ Nail in a 4x4 pressure treated post just slightly below the the wood and extracted it pretty easily. Its like everything else it dosent work by itself. My last words are for the people who are having issues with this Puller. It's ok to be stun, but it's not very handy!! Hahaha 🤪😆

ممتازة جدا لفك المسامير والدبابيس 👍🏻
