When you've got detailed woodwork to attend to, grab your nail gun and load it up with this strip of brad nails from Tacwise. It has 5000 18-gauge nails that can be used to bind lightweight wood trims. Brad nails are small (these are 15 mm in length) and tricky to drive manually into wood. Placed together as they are in this strip - and combined with the force generated by your electric power tool - they'll penetrate surfaces easily. These nails are galvanised and as a result, highly resistant to rust and corrosion. Their slender profile helps to prevent splitting as you drive them into the wood, and once they're home, they're practically invisible, leaving your work with a neat finish. These pieces are suitable for wooden structures both indoors and outdoors, from kitchen cabinets to garden sheds. Tacwise Brad Nail Strip 15mm 18g (5000 Pack) in Chrome. Premium quality 18G nails for use in the Tacwise C1832V air nailers as well as many other nailers taking 18G nails.
