Would RecommendObv. 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 RecommendVery "flimsy" nails. Hard to drive without bending.

Cheap but effective
Would RecommendThey 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 RecommendI 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
