During your construction and decoration work, the nail gun will prove to be an indispensable tool for working with wood pieces and surfaces. And speaking of nail guns means talking about nails and nail gun pins... Thanks to ManoMano, make your choice from a wide range of nails and pins at low prices. Choose from brands such as SPIT, BOSTITCH or SENCO and among all the models offered.
Depending on the work you have to do, the choice of nail will be crucial. Indeed, the use of the nail gun and therefore of the nails is different according to the task to be performed. You can work on parquet flooring, frames, or simple decorative elements. From then on, the choice of nail will be influenced by your needs.
If you need to lay parquet flooring, you will find special nailers such as the BOSTITCH parquet nailer type MFN-200 and will therefore have to choose parquet nails. For smaller tasks, you can use nails compatible with staplers. This allows for using a simpler and lighter tool. Other nails and pins will be adapted for work on framing.
This adaptation of the nail to the task to be performed will also allow you to choose the diameter and length of the piece. The larger the element on which you will work, the larger the nails and pins you will also need to choose. Indeed, the diameter of the tip in particular will influence the robustness of the assembly.
Thanks to ManoMano, you also have a wide range of finishes available. These will also influence the solidity of the piece and should be taken into account when making your choice. Four different materials are used for nail gun nails: steel guarantees resistance to pressure and longevity; aluminum offers solidity but also lightness; resin allows for a nail of good hold and great strength; as for stainless steel, it provides real support despite humidity and temperature variations as well as resistance to corrosion. For steel tips, you can choose between different finishes: galvanization gives increased resistance to abrasion thanks to zinc, ringing enhances robustness… The choice of finish will therefore depend on the environment in which the nail will be used and the characteristics you wish it to have.
Finally, another element to consider in your choice will be the packaging. Nails are sold in bulk, in rolls or in strips. In this context, the selection will primarily be practical; bulk packaging offers great adaptability, while strips and rolls allow for great ease of reloading.
By taking into account all these points, you should be able to find the nail, the pin you need! Happy DIYing on ManoMano!
