BOSTITCH PAPER TAPE FRAMING NAILS, BRIGHT - 3" x .120"Paper-collated full-round-head framing nails for 30 to 34 degree paper-tape pneumatic and cordless framing nailers. Paper collation burns clean on the jobsite and leaves no plastic litter on the slab, and the offset full round head meets IRC requirements for structural framing in all regions.

- .120" smooth shank (10d common-equivalent) for fast drive and easy removal
- Bright basic finish (uncoated carbon steel) -- for interior dry framing only; not rated for exterior, treated lumber, or weather exposure
- Full round head, offset paper-tape collation (code-compliant for structural framing)
- Diamond point reduces splitting on dense or knotty lumber
- 30 to 34 degree paper tape; polymer top coat reduces jam in cordless framers
- 2,500 nails per box

- Compatibility: Bostitch F33PT, N90PT, LPF33PT; Paslode F350-S; DeWalt DCN690/DWF83PT; Porter-Cable FR350B; Senco FramePro 701XP/702XP; Max SN890CH3.
Where to use 10d 3": 10d common-equivalent workhorse for general dry interior framing -- 2x4 stud assembly, top plates, double sole plates, partition walls, and header build-up where 16d hand-driven would be substituted. Bright finish is interior dry only; for any exterior, treated-lumber, or moisture-prone assembly step up to the galvanized version.
Tip: Run a depth test on a scrap of the actual framing stock before driving the first wall. Heads should sit flush to a hair below flush; over-driven heads in shear-wall and hold-down patterns can be cause for failed inspection.
