15 Gauge DA Brads

DA series brads are 15-gauge, angled, collated strip nails designed for second-fix carpentry, such as trimming, moulding, and cabinet making. Featuring a ~1.75mm diameter, these fasteners offer superior holding power for timber, architraves, and door casings. They are available in electro-galvanised or stainless steel finishes, typically in lengths from 25mm to 65mm.

Frequently Asked Questions About 14 Gauge ND Brads

 

Q1:When do we use the DA brads?

A: DA brads (15-gauge, 34-degree angled) are primarily used in finish nailers for second-fix carpentry, trim work, and cabinetry, where a strong holding power and access to tight spaces are required. Their angled design allows for easier manoeuvring in corners, making them ideal for installing baseboards, crown moulding, door jambs, window casings, and assembling furniture.

Q2:The difference between DA nails and Finish nails?

A: While both are 15-gauge, DA nails typically have a 34-degree angle with a distinct “D-shaped” head, often used in Bostitch-style guns, whereas FN nails (often ~25-degree) have a different angled profile.

Q3:What tools can we use with it?

A: Designed to work specifically with angled finish nailers (e.g., Senco or Bostitch brands).

Q4: What are the common materials?

A: Available in stainless steel for exterior or rust-sensitive projects (like kitchens/bathrooms) and galvanised for interior, non-exposed applications.

Q5. How to choose the right length?

A: Choose DA brad lengths that are two to three times the thickness of the material being fastened. For example, use 1½-inch nails for ½-inch moulding. Ensure the nail penetrates the base material but does not exit the other side, generally aiming for a total length of roughly 1/4 inch less than the combined thickness of the materials.
