These nails work PERFECTLY!

28 degree angle skeletal nails are very hard to find these days. Most hardware stores do not carry and are becoming obsolete. I have a 1980's CRAFTSMAN air nailer that is 28 degrees and says to use clipped nails. The truncated head with code no longer appears in many places (easy to pull out). These are offset head nails that match the codes and will work in MOST cut head nailers. Since there are no SEARS to buy replacement nails, they looked so accurate that I used them. Built a garage and used 1000 frames and skins of all sizes with no jambs and misfires. AMAZON is currently the only place you can find these nails. THANK GOD FOR AMAZON. As an aside, AMAZON sent me another box of these that didn't explode, leaving behind nails, shredded BOSTITCH boxes, and wrapping paper that was supposed to contain 35 pounds. Steel in a big box with no movement. Many orders I have received are less than half the nails. Most of them ripped open their shipping boxes and ended up in the truck on the floor of the UPS operating room. The boxes are torn open and re-taped without many nails. Replaced AMAZON But the replacement was the same.

Pros
  • skeletal nails
Cons
  • Not sure
