FAQs

Are these nails compatible with all framing nailers?

They are specifically designed for 34-degree clipped head framing nailers, such as the Fischer FGW 90F.

Can I use these for outdoor construction?

Yes, they feature corrosion resistance that exceeds Eurocode 5 standards, making them suitable for many exterior structural wood applications.

What does the 51x2.8mm specification mean?

This refers to the nail length of 5.1 cm and a shank diameter of 2.8 mm.

How many nails are in one pack?

Each pack contains 3300 individual nails.

Will these work in freezing temperatures?

Yes, they are tested to perform reliably in temperatures as low as -15°C.

Troubleshooting

Nailer jamming frequently

Ensure the nail strip is properly aligned in the magazine and check that the magazine track is free of debris or old paper scraps.

Nails not sinking flush

Adjust the depth-of-drive setting on your framing nailer and ensure the air compressor pressure is set to the manufacturer's recommended PSI.

Paper collation breaking prematurely

Store the nails in a temperate, dry location; humidity can weaken the paper collation, making it prone to breaking before entering the nailer.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets and exceeds Eurocode 5 corrosion resistance standards
  • Reliable operation in sub-zero temperatures as low as -15°C
  • High-quality waxed paper collation prevents frequent jamming
  • Excellent holding strength for permanent wood-to-wood framing

Cons

  • Specifically designed for clipped head nailers
  • Ring shank can be difficult to remove once driven
  • Not intended for non-wood materials

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, verify that your framing nailer is compatible with clipped head style nails. These nails measure 5.1 cm in length, making them ideal for standard structural timber thicknesses. Load the strips carefully into the magazine to ensure the waxed paper does not tear or bunch, which could cause a dry fire or jam. Store the product in a dry environment to maintain the integrity of the adhesive paper collation. While these nails feature high-grade corrosion resistance, avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or direct moisture for prolonged periods to maintain the galvanized finish.
