Where can I find 40mm nails?

[blork]

I feel like an idiot but I can't find where to buy hot-dip galvanized 40mm nails like these?



Been to Byggmax, Jem&Fix, XLBygg and no one seems to have this?!

(I'm going to nail together 2 pieces of 22mm boards so I need 40mm so that the nails don't stick out. 50mm is plentiful but it won't work well...)

It looks like a nail for a nail gun. Have you looked for those?

I have both brad and regular hot-dip galvanized nails in 40 mm in a box (Gunnebo), but I bought them more than 15 years ago. They should still be available.

Edit: Probably these are the ones I bought: https://www.proffsmagasinet.se/bygg...k-fzv-ce-en14592-40-x-17-mm-1000-pack-3009481

for a few years only 50mm and longer vfz nails have been manufactured

Anchor nails might work

Hmm yeah that might have worked. It's just annoying when you need 50 of them 😅

Buy 50 and cut off one centimeter 👍

Yes maybe? This is to join two fascia boards together. I want it to be relatively separable.

Galvanized does not hold up well outdoors.

Why not screws? They usually work better than nails to join two boards.

I need to nail together two 22mm boards so I need 40mm to ensure the nail doesn't stick out.

I would have used decking/panel screws, easily available. Maybe even something you already have at home.
My favorite is the double-threaded concealed ones that are like small construction screws, but I think Byggmax only has 60 mm.

Byggamx seems to have it on the website at least?

Electroplated doesn't hold up well outdoors.

Eh, will last longer than the fascia boards anyway. In the past, it was just pure iron nails and they still hold up.

Jem o Fix seems to have galvanized in store:

"For indoor and outdoor use" it says, hmmm don't they rust outdoors?

Trim the nails you have to 40mm.
