Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these nails suitable for outdoor use?

They are galvanised to resist rust, but they are primarily designed for second fix indoor applications. They are not recommended for permanent exterior exposure.

Can I use these in a straight finish nailer?

No. These are angled brad nails and will not function correctly in a straight-magazine nailer.

What does the 16 gauge specification mean?

The gauge refers to the thickness of the nail wire. 16-gauge is a standard thickness for finish carpentry that provides more holding power than smaller 18-gauge brads.

Will these leave large holes in my trim?

The 16-gauge nail leaves a small footprint that is easily concealed with standard wood filler or decorators caulk.

How many nails come in a box?

Each box contains 2500 high-quality angled brad nails.

Troubleshooting

Nails are jamming frequently in the magazine

Verify the nailer is clean of debris and oil. Ensure the nails are not bent in the strip and are correctly seated in the magazine track.

Nail head is not sitting flush with the surface

Adjust the depth-of-drive setting on your nailer. If the nail is still proud, check that the air compressor pressure is set within the manufacturer's recommended PSI range.

Nails are staining the wood surface

Ensure you are using the correct nail type for the wood species; tannins in oak or cedar can sometimes react with metal fasteners, causing discoloration.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduces jamming issues in compatible nailers
  • Galvanised finish prevents unsightly rust streaks
  • Ribbed shank provides superior withdrawal resistance
  • Large pack size is cost-effective for trade use

Cons

  • Specific to 16-gauge angled nailers only
  • Not suitable for heavy structural framing
  • Galvanisation can degrade in highly corrosive marine environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve optimal performance, ensure your nailer is set to the correct air pressure or battery depth setting to allow the nail head to sit flush with the surface without 'dimpling' the wood. These nails are strictly compatible with 16-gauge angled nailers; attempting to use them in straight-magazine nailers will cause immediate jamming. Store the box in a dry, climate-controlled environment to prevent moisture from interacting with the galvanised coating over long storage periods. When loading the magazine, ensure the collation strip is seated correctly at the bottom of the track to maintain consistent feeding.
