Specialist Collated Nails
Specialist collated nails are made for precision, speed and volume. Whether strip-fed or coil-loaded, these nails are engineered to drive fast and hold strong — making them perfect for decking, panelling, pallets, cladding and industrial carpentry.
Where Are Specialist Nails Used?
They're optimised for high-speed nailing where consistency and strength are key:
- Decking & Cladding – Secure boards quickly with coil-fed nails on heavy gauge timber
- Pallet & Packaging – Fasten cratework and boxes in bulk without reloads
- Fencing & Outdoor Framing – Galvanised options resist rust in exposed conditions
- Sheeting & Panel Install – Strip nails ideal for repeat fixings and wide surface coverage
Used By:
- Carpenters working high-speed site fit-outs
- Pallet builders and joiners in volume fixings
- Outdoor contractors fitting fencing or cladding
Choosing the Right Collated Nail
Match by tool system, finish and nail type:
1. Collation Type
Strip nails feed in rows — fast reload and ideal for structural joinery. Coil nails come on drums for high-volume, low-interruption nailing.
2. Nail Finish
Galvanised for exterior, bright steel for dry conditions. Check for resin or ring shank options to boost grip.
3. Nailer Compatibility
Ensure the angle (15°, 21°, 34°) and magazine type (coil or strip) match your nail gun model.
Specialist Nail FAQs
What’s the difference between coil and strip nails?
Strip nails load in linear magazines, best for mobility and access. Coil nails feed from a drum, holding more nails for fewer reloads — great for high-volume tasks.
Are collated nails universal?
No — match the angle, collation type and size to your specific nail gun. Check your manual or spec sheet.
Can I use these outdoors?
Yes — galvanised or stainless collated nails are rust-resistant and ideal for outdoor timber projects.
What nails are best for pallet work?
Use ring shank or resin-coated coil nails — they deliver excellent holding strength and rapid reloads in pallet assembly lines.
