Buying Guide: Nails, Staples and Nailers
Framing, Siding and Roofing Coil Nails
Angled coil framing nails come in 3 in. and 3-1/4 in. lengths, and angled coil galvanized roofing nails come in 3/4 in. with a 14 Ga. gauge. Stainless steel wire coil siding nails offer corrosion-resistant performance in pressure treated lumber and exterior applications. Match the nail length, gauge and degree rating to your nailer, and check the tool manual before you buy.
Staples and Brad Nails
Staples come in wide crown, medium crown and flooring styles, plus galvanized wire staples. The 18 Ga. coated steel brad nails are for interior use only, and the coated finish eases penetration. Match the crown width, gauge and length to your stapler, and check the stapler manual before you order.
