15° Wire Collated Coil Nails

For pallet deckboards, match the nail to the timber joint and nailer. For wooden crates and packing cases, tell us the panel and batten thicknesses and how they are fastened.

Products and selection tasks for Pallets & wooden packaging

Product starting point

Task and selection logic

Deckboard-to-stringer or block assembly

A collated coil supports repeated fastening with a compatible nailer. Specify the joint, shank pattern and coil geometry together.

Established specifications that call for individual fasteners

The catalog does not approve an end use. If the buyer’s existing drawing calls for an uncollated nail, specify its actual dimensions, driving method and required bulk pack.

Light wooden case panels

Trial panel attachment on the actual case substrate and intended handling duty.

Timber-backed protective sheets / Supported crate-liner trials / Protective-pad retention samples

Evaluate a broad crown on protective material supported by a timber fixing rail.

Wooden case batten assemblies / Box-component joint trials

Check driving and edge splitting in the densest timber used for the specified case component.

Manual pallet assembly stations / Crate-side fastening access / Nailer-and-coil sample checks

Choose the nailer around the approved nail size and access to the pallet joint.

01

Describe the timber and joint

Provide species, board and block thickness, moisture conditions and the approved joint drawing. Nail length follows the connection, not the overall pallet dimensions.

02

Match the assembly process

For hand-held nailers, check length, diameter, head and collation against the exact manual. For an automatic line, review the dedicated jumbo-coil application and machine feeding requirements.

03

Define sample acceptance

Check drive depth, timber splitting, feeding and any required joint performance on your normal material. Keep the approved fastener and packing reference for repeat orders.

ISPM 15 applies to wood packaging material, not to the metal nails used in it.
