Faster installation – thanks to paper collation and clipped head
Paper collation holds nails together in strips that feed smoothly through compatible collated nail guns, while clipped heads help align and seat nails in the magazine. Diamond point tips reduce splitting and aid initial bite into timber.
Quicker, uninterrupted runs on site, with fewer reloads and reduced misfeeds when using compatible nail guns.
Secure fixes in timber – with plain shank and diamond point head
Plain shanks lower penetration resistance so nails drive more smoothly, and diamond point heads concentrate force for deeper entry into wood. The combined geometry helps the fastener seat firmly without excessive splitting.
Dependable holding power for joinery and framing tasks, delivering consistent results across common timber types.
Corrosion protection for indoor use – with Firmagalv electro-galvanised plating
Firmagalv is an electro-galvanised plating applied to the nail surface to reduce surface corrosion risks in interior environments. Conformance with Eurocode 5 Service Class 1 indicates suitability for indoor applications.
Reduced staining and adequate protection for interior projects, making the nails appropriate for household and trade indoor work.
