Craftsman 16GA Nailer 351-18321-Looking for a part

[Steve Mawson]

I have a Craftsman nailer Model #351-18321 that I need a part for, Sears says no longer available. It is part no. 4365. Controls the air to allow the piston to return to the starting position. Was plastic that did not stand up to oil used to lubricate the tool. Tool is not of much use if I can't find that part. This was the first thing to go wrong with the nailer. Probably won't be purchasing any more Craftsman Nailers. Thanks for any suggestions anyone might have.

I have the same one, I think it is a Campbell Hausfeld. I would try and cross reference it. I thought it was a quick look I was wrong. I will check my manual. Dan

I have had no luck cross referencing this. I think it is http://www.mastertoolrepair.com/campbell-hausfeld-parts-sn162h00av-p-54768.html and the driver kit might have it $25. Otherwise buy a used one for parts. I have a PC I use too, but have liked this one for quite a few years. Dan
