CORDLESS BRAD NAILER MARKET OVERVIEW

The global cordless brad nailer market was valued at USD 0.87 billion in 2025 and is expected to grow to USD 0.91 billion in 2026, reaching USD 1.26 billion by 2035, with a projected CAGR of 4.3% during the forecast period.As of 2024, North America accounted for approximately 38.5% of the global cordless brad nailer market share.

To insert brads (tiny nails) into wood or other materials, one sort of power instrument is called a cordless brad nailer. Cordless brad nailers are battery-operated, which makes them more portable and practical to use on job sites than standard brad nailers that need an electrical outlet and an air compressor. This device is used to drive nails rapidly and effectively in building, woodworking, and other related tasks. The cordless design gives the freedom to move around the work area without being constrained by a power line or air hose, and the battery-powered motor delivers enough force to drive the nails, negating the need for an air compressor.

There are various reasons why the cordless brad nailer market growth is expanding. The rising demand for power tools that are more portable and convenient is one of the primary factors driving growth. Users of cordless brad nailers won't have to worry about locating a power supply or lugging a large air compressor about. Cordless brad nailers' battery-powered construction gives users additional mobility on the job site, facilitating access to confined locations and obstacle-avoiding manoeuvres. Additionally, cordless brad nailers are getting cheaper, making a wider spectrum of users—including DIY enthusiasts and professional contractors—able to use them. The cordless brad nailer market is expanding as a result of the development of stronger, longer-lasting batteries that allow users to operate for extended periods before needing to stop and recharge them.

KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Halt In Operations Impeded Market Development

Since the COVID-19 virus first appeared, the global markets have suffered a tremendous loss, which has harmed the global economy. The lockdown that followed the outbreak caused markets all across the world to endure its terrible effects. Due to the restrictions imposed by the lockdown, some industries were compelled to temporarily cease all of their activities, which resulted in a lack of products despite a high level of demand. Similar to how the cordless brad nailer market suffered from the suspension of production and the scarcity of raw materials brought on by the disruption of the global supply chain.

LATEST TRENDS

Mobility Of Tools Facilitates Market Growth

There is an increasing demand for cordless brad nailers that may be used without being connected to a power source as customers and contractors become more aware of the advantages of cordless tools, including more mobility and flexibility. The launch of new cordless brad nailer models as well as the development of more advanced cordless technology, such as batteries with greater capacity and tools with better power-to-weight ratios, is this trend influencing both. As users look for tools that offer the most comfort and ease of use on the job site, the trend toward cordless technology is predicted to continue.

• Lithium-ion battery pack costs have dropped by 85% since 2010, reaching about $143/kWh, enabling more powerful cordless brad nailers to replace pneumatic systems.

• Remodeling demand remains strong with industry remodeling sentiment recording an index reading of 68 in Q4 2024, boosting adoption of brad nailers for trim and finishing work.

CORDLESS BRAD NAILER MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type Analysis

According to type, the market can be segmented into 18 volts and 20 volts. The segment of 18 volts will pioneer the market by type during the forecast period.

By Application Analysis

Based on application, the market can be divided into commercial and household. The commercial segment of the market will dominate the industry by the application during the forecast period.

DRIVING FACTORS

Convenience Of Usage Proliferates Market Value

The rising need for practical, transportable, and simple-to-use power equipment is what's fuelling the growth of the cordless brad nailer industry. The conventional pneumatic brad nailer can be cumbersome, heavy, and restricted in terms of mobility since it needs an air compressor and a power source. In contrast, cordless brad nailers do not need an air compressor or power supply and are intended to be lighter and more portable. As a result, DIY enthusiasts and contractors can complete projects more easily and adaptably without being bound to a power source.

• Modern brushless motor nailers with Li-ion packs can now fire hundreds to thousands of nails per charge, with leading models reaching up to 1,900 shots, reducing the need for compressors.

• U.S. single-family housing starts were recorded at ~939,000 units (annualized rate), maintaining steady demand for finishing tools such as brad nailers.

Increasing Awareness Regarding Environment Contributes To Market Demand

Since they are powered by batteries instead of compressed air, cordless brad nailers don't produce the same fumes or pollutants as typical pneumatic brad nailers. For builders and homeowners who want to minimize their carbon footprint and environmental impact, they are therefore a more environmentally friendly option. Additionally, since they don't need a constant power source to drive an air compressor, cordless brad nailers are frequently more energy-efficient. This not only aids in lowering energy use, but also operating expenses.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

The Limited Run Time Of The Tool Slows Down Market Expansion

The market for cordless brad nailers is primarily constrained by the lower power and shorter run times of cordless tools than those of classic pneumatic brad nailers. Batteries that power cordless brad nailers have a finite capacity and may need to be often recharged. This may limit the amount of time a user may spend working on a single project and cause disruptions in workflow. Additionally, pneumatic brad nailers might have more power and accuracy than cordless brad nailers, which could limit the adaptability and heavy-duty applications that they can tackle.

• Residential construction showed a 9.8% month-over-month drop in a recent report, highlighting demand volatility that directly impacts tool sales.

• End-of-life handling of lithium-ion batteries remains a challenge, requiring recycling infrastructure that adds compliance and after-sales costs.
