Glue-collated 18-gauge brad nails for finish nailing of trim, molding, casing, cabinet assembly, and panel work. The brown finish blends with stained wood, and the slim 18-gauge shank leaves a small hole that needs little or no putty.

• Gauge: 18
• Length: 1"
• Finish: Brown coated, for stained or natural-wood applications
• Collation: Glue strip, straight
• Quantity: Sold by the box (bulk pack)
• Fits: 18-gauge straight-strip brad nailers from Bostitch, DeWalt, Porter-Cable, Senco, Paslode, Hitachi/Metabo HPT, Ridgid, Ryobi, Makita, and most other brands
• Applications: Door and window casing, baseboard, crown molding, picture frames, cabinet face frames, and other finish carpentry

Tip: Match brad length to the workpiece - a brad should penetrate the substrate by roughly 3 times the thickness of the trim. For 3/4" trim into a stud, 2" brads work well; for 1/2" panel into furring, 1" brads are right.
