1. Recall Summary
This recall involves the RIDGID 18Volt Brushless 21-Degree Framing Nailer and the RIDGID 18Volt Brushless 30-Degree Framing Nailer. The recall was initiated by TTI Consumer Power Tools, Inc., of Anderson, South Carolina. The nailers were manufactured in China. The recall was published on July 31, 2025. Approximately 64,000 units were sold in the United States, and an additional 6,575 units were sold in Canada.

The recalled products are:
– RIDGID 18Volt Brushless 21-Degree Framing Nailer (Model Number R09894)
– RIDGID 18Volt Brushless 30-Degree Framing Nailer (Model Number R09895)

The model and serial numbers are located on the data plate found either on the side of the nail tray/magazine where the fasteners are loaded or on the bottom of the nailer where the battery is inserted. Only nailers without either a black ink mark or a punched hole next to the serial number on the data plate are included in the recall.

3. Hazard Information
The dual action engagement system on the nailers can malfunction and involuntarily discharge a nail by pulling the trigger alone. The nailer should require both the work piece contact element (nose-piece) to be depressed and the trigger to be pulled at the same time in order to discharge a nail. This malfunction poses a laceration hazard to consumers. As of the date of the recall notice, no injuries have been reported.
