Review on πŸ”© Galvanized Straight Fasteners in 16 Gauge for Global Applications by Tutan Dennard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality, works great (like brand), great price

I'm a Woodworker and avid DIY enthusiast, so I use a lot of 16ga and 18ga finish nails with my Porter Cable nail guns. This product currently retails for 2,500 nails for $13.49 which is a great value compared to brand name nails at your local supermarket. I hammered about 100-150 nails out of this box on a recent project and they worked great. Not a single jam. Loads easily. No difference to more expensive big brands. On one of the photos I show a close comparison with branded nails. I can't tell any difference visually or in terms of performance. They worked flawlessly for me. The cardboard is better than what you usually get from big brands but still needs clear tape to keep all corners from slipping. The description says they are galvanized but then it says they are for indoor use only. Plus they look the same as all my other ungalvanized nails. So it's a bit mysterious. All in all, these are quality nails at a great price. They've worked really well for me, so I'd definitely recommend them, electroplated or not.

Pros
  • Ideal for crown molding, trim, baseboards, decorative moldings, door and window trim, hardwood floors, cabinets, picture frames, upholstery, etc.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
