Build with Confidence Using Bostitch Galvanized Metal Connector Nails

Ensure the structural integrity of your framing and exterior applications with the Bostitch PT-MC14825G.5M 2-1/2 Inch x .148 Galvanized Paper Tape Collated Metal Connector Nails. Designed specifically for the rigorous demands of securing metal hardware to wood, these nails are an essential component for any professional builder or serious DIYer. The galvanized finish provides reliable corrosion resistance, making them highly suitable for most exterior applications, including the installation of hurricane straps, seismic clips, rafter ties, and heavy-duty joist hangers. (Note: For coastal construction or highly corrosive environments, stainless steel nails may be recommended).

Engineered for smooth, continuous operation, these metal connector nails feature a robust paper tape collation angled at 30 to 34 degrees. This ensures flawless compatibility and jam-free performance when used with top-tier metal connector nailers, such as the Bostitch MCN150, MCN250, MCN250S, and F33PT (when equipped with the appropriate metal connector nosepiece). The smooth shank design and flat head allow for a clean, flush drive into framing lumber, providing the ultimate holding power required by strict building codes. Each convenient box contains 500 nails, giving you plenty of hardware to keep your project moving without constant reloading.
