Good quality nails

[Nygge72]

Hi, could I get some tips on good quality nails for a nail gun to assemble a house frame?

I assume there are some here who have tested different brands.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, I agree with that. I'm mostly wondering if there is a brand and model of nails to look for or avoid that have good quality.

 

[FredrikR]

Yes, I'm aware of that. I'm mostly wondering if there's a brand or model of nail to look for or avoid that maintains good quality.

I don't think there's a large selection from each manufacturer/dimension.
Go with a branded nail and it will work out fine. 👍

So this should work well then?

How many do you think will be needed approximately for a regular house of 110 sqm and 1 1/2 story?

Yes, it works. Are you going to buy all the nails at once, I assume you need 3" as well.

Yes, it works.

Are you going to buy all the nails at once, you'll need 3" as well, I assume.

What is 3" used for then?
