Brads for outdoor window mouldings

[Fuga]

Can anyone suggest where I can get 25 mm brads (1.2/1.4?) for outdoor use? They should be hot-dip galvanized according to what I understand. I've searched but only manage to find electro-galvanized ones. I'm going to put up a small number of trims around some windows, so I'm primarily interested in brads to be hammered in manually. It seems a bit overkill to invest in a nail gun for this limited need, unless it's the only possible solution.

Thanks for the response, but when I check it seems to only be type FZB that is offered.

What kind of moldings do you need where you only need 25mm long brads?

it was probably about 10-15 years ago that some manufacturers stopped with VFZ nails under 50 mm due to problems with VFZ of those under 50mm that they stuck together too much

What kind of moldings are you installing that only require 25mm long brads?

They are windows in the basement foundation and the moldings are to cover a gap between the frame and the foundation wall. The moldings are 15mm thick.

Ok. That explains it.

The lists are 15mm thick.

then you should have at least 40mm nails

Ok. Thanks for the info. That makes the selection look better.
