What Customers Are Saying

The Grip-Rite 9-gauge deck nails have received mixed reviews. Many customers found the nails to be strong, durable, and effective, with a ring shank design that helps them grip the wood tightly. However, a significant number of customers reported issues, describing the nails as too soft and prone to bending, even when used with pre-drilled holes. Some felt the nails were not suitable for harder, denser lumber and worked better with softer wood. Customers should carefully consider the specific requirements of their project before using these nails.

Ring shanks

Would Recommend

They are for outdoor projects and the ring shanks don't work their way out over time like some nails do.

Reliable deck nails

Good holding power. Nails began to buckle sooner than other types with errant strikes.

Strong and grip tight!

Would Recommend

I used these 3 1/2” 16 penny nails to frame up two 16ft studded walls for my cabin in Nevada. I used Lowes 2x4 Douglas Fir strong and dense lumber. Must have pounded at least 150 of these durable nails. They are hard to drive in, very strong and only bend if you hit a knot. Although they are not easy to get out. If grip and strength is what you want, these 3 1/2 nails are killer!
