I bought a pack of BOSTITCH 18 Gauge 2" Coated Nails, 1000pcs. in carton (BT1350B-1M). I use Brad Nails in my Porter Cable 20v 18 Gauge Bad Nailer to install a quarter round bar. The pins penetrated a quarter of the circle without splitting or damaging the surface of the molding. However, I noticed that the nailer started to stick halfway through the first cartridge. I'm not sure if it was nails or a nailer. The nailer came off with no problems and most of the other nails worked fine. I'll have to look for another nail brand that is also compatible with the Porter Cable Brad Nailer and see if the experience is the same. Overall good value for money.
