gun concrete nails

Powerful and precise impacts of power-actuated fasteners, also known as concrete gun nails, concrete nails, or powder-actuated fasteners, are used to affix materials to concrete. A firing pin is triggered to ignite a powder charge that provides sufficient force for these nails to be pushed into the concrete surface.

Hammering concrete nails into place can be used for different jobs, from affixing wood to the hard surface of concrete, binding metal to it, and even attaching insulation for warmth. Those same nails are used to firmly secure concrete during construction too.

Available in a wide array of sizes and varieties, concrete gun nails are a dependable fixing solution for most construction needs. The tried and true round head design can be found in lengths ranging from half an inch to a staggering six inches. Different diameters are also on offer to suit any project, extending from three-sixteenths of an inch up to half an inch.

A range of components – from steel and stainless steel to aluminum – are crafted into concrete gun nails, which can be purchased in a galvanized or non-galvanized state.

The power of a powder charge can effortlessly drive a concrete gun nail into any surface when it is used in conjunction with a powder-actuated tool. All one has to do is load the tool with its components, set it against the concrete wall, and pull the trigger. Then, the nail will be securely embedded in the hard concrete surface.

An array of sizes and styles are available for powder-actuated tools, with the most typical being the hand-held type. These tools are perfect for small tasks, like connecting wood to concrete.

Filled with several strengths, powder-actuated tools are found in many forms and include .22 caliber, .27 caliber, and .32 caliber power levels. The .22 caliber stands out as the most powerful among them, with the ability to take on large scope projects—like binding metal to concrete—that smaller tools may not be able to handle.

When it comes to quickly and securely affixing materials to concrete, concrete gun nails are the way to go. These handy fasteners come in a range of sizes and styles; and require powder-actuated tools to be installed properly. No matter the task, there is a concrete nail tailored to the job.
