AirCraft Brad Nails — 16 Gauge × 38 mm (Box of 2 500)
When the job needs more bite, these 16-gauge, 38 mm brads deliver strong holding power with a neat finish. The heavier shank grips well in thicker trims, casings and cabinet assemblies, while the small head keeps surface repairs minimal. Supplied in a contractor-friendly 2 500-count box and compatible with the AirCraft AT0002 and most straight-strip 16 g brad nailers.
Features
- 16-gauge (T-type) brads — stronger shank for tougher fixings.
- 38 mm length — deeper penetration for thicker stock and layered materials.
- Electro-galvanised (GEL) finish for standard indoor corrosion resistance.
- Straight strip collation — fits AT0002 and most straight-magazine 16 g nailers.
- 2 500-piece bulk pack for efficient site work.
Benefits
- Higher pull-out strength: 16 g shank secures dense woods and wider mouldings.
- Clean finish: low-profile head reduces filling and sanding.
- Fewer reloads: generous pack size keeps workflows moving.
- Versatile: ideal for skirtings, architraves, door jambs and thicker trims.
Extra Information
- Best for dry, interior applications; for exterior or wet areas, use stainless or heavy-coated fasteners.
- Test on offcuts to set depth-of-drive; avoid over-driving on softer timbers.
- Store dry and boxed to preserve the galvanised finish and strip collation.
Pro Tip
- For wide skirting boards, angle alternate brads slightly to improve withdrawal resistance without stepping up to finish nails.
- Near edges or end-grain, reduce air pressure and use multiple lighter shots to minimise splitting.
