Frequently Asked Questions about 28 Degree D Head Paper Collated Framing Nails
Q1:When we choose the bright framing nails?
A: Bright finishes have no coating to protect the steel and are susceptible to corrosion if in high humidity or water. We do not recommend using it for exterior use or in treated lumber. You should use it only for interior applications where corrosion protection is not required. People often use bright finishes for interior framing, trim, and finish applications.
Q2:When we choose the electric galvanised nails?
A: Electro Galvanised finish has a very thin layer of Zinc that offers some corrosion protection. You should generally use them in areas where minimal corrosion protection is needed, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and other areas susceptible to some water or humidity. However, if you are working in areas near the coast where the salt content in rainwater is higher, you should consider using a Hot Dip Galvanised or Stainless Steel fastener.
Q3:What is the difference between the ring shank and plain shank?
A:
- Ring shank nails offer superior holding power in softwoods, making them excellent for subflooring.
- Plain shank nails are ideal for general framing, offering easy driving, often used in interior work.
Q4:When we choose the hot-dip galvanised framing nails?
A: We apply a layer of Zinc to hot-dip galvanised fasteners to help protect the steel from corrosion. As a result, although these fasteners will corrode over time as the coating wears, they generally last for the lifetime of the application. Therefore, builders typically use hot-dip galvanised fasteners for outdoor applications where the fastener is exposed to daily weather conditions such as rain and snow.
Q5:When we choose the stainless steel nails?
A: Stainless steel finish offers the best corrosion protection available. Consequently, while the steel may oxidise or rust over time, it will never lose its strength from corrosion. For this reason, you can use stainless steel fasteners for both exterior and interior applications, and they generally come in 304 or 316 stainless steel.
