Review on πŸ”¨ Grip Rite Prime Guard GR034HG1M Galvanized Collated Framing Nails: 21 Degree Plastic Strip, Round Head, Exterior - 3-1/4" x 0.131 by Bob Randles

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very good nails, packaging could be better

These are the main nails for the frame and are also galvanised. They perform as expected, look as advertised and unlike many other brands are REALLY hot dip galvanized to comply with regulations. These are by far the best framing nails I've used. Not everything is so good: the plastic that connects them is weak and brittle and breaks easily. You must be careful not to break the rod when loading it into the nailer. This is probably a compromise for good nailer performance and no plastic debris jams. Also, the packaging is not very good. Probably only intended for sale in large stores, it offers no shipping protection and a couple of sticks were broken on arrival. Overall: they ride well, hold up like nails and I repeat, they are indeed galvanized. .

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • The list goes on.
