What Customers Are Saying

The steel cap nails are generally effective for securing house wrap, insulation, and tarps. Customers found the nails easy to install and appreciated the strong grip and durability against wind and rain. However, some reported issues with the nails bending or breaking, especially when used with harder materials. The product appears to be a good value, but the quality and consistency could be improved.

Easy to handle, holds up well

Would Recommend

Obv. went through insulation easy, didn’t go into the wood as easy, but means, it shouldn’t come out easily either.

Not for Hard Wood!

Would Not Recommend

Very "flimsy" nails. Hard to drive without bending.

Cheap but effective

Would Recommend

They do work but sometimes hard to drive in straight. I had to reinforce several which didn't tap in straight.

Weak/ Bend way too easily

Would Not Recommend

I bought these to install foam board insulation panels on the rafters in my attic. My house was built in 1943, so the wood is nice and dry and hard. These nails are so weak that most of the ones I used crumpled like paper and 100% of the ones I left in were bent in some way. I got so angry and frustrated with them I finished the project by removing the caps from the nails and putting them on drywall screws I had laying around

Dependable but easily bends

Would Recommend

These nails are easy to handle and hold well. Downside is that they bend easily with the slightest off-center hit.
