Of course you need to make sure this size is suitable for your nail gun. Luckily, they work great with both of the 18-gauge nail guns available here. Straight and strong nails work just as well as fashion brands. The box is a lot sturdier than the flimsy ones that come with some, and a lot more convenient to use than those nasty plastic clams some brands use. Sometimes a plain cardboard works best. Good galvanizing quality, correct shape and clean firing. I love it.
