Grip-RitePrimeGuard Max MAXB64873, Finish Nail 16GA, 2", 304 Stainless Steel, 1000 Nails, Clamshell Packaged

I have used 'Grip Right' collated fasteners interchangeably with other brands for decades. They have always been a good value.Of note for a few years their regular boxed finish nails came pre bent.These SS 16 gauge collated came packed with no regard for what they where or how pricey they are.Simply stuffing them in an envelope is a joke.The box came chrushed with the contents spilled out and many nails broaken free of the collation.I could have gone to a cheaper brand, but I really wanted this new box, to refill.Any one who has carried collated fasteners in a tool pouch knows why.The odds of gun jams goes up dramatically when you trying to use broken up collated strips. Bad enough on the ground, on scaffolding on an ugly day?Premium price, poor service.

The finish nails were just what I was looking for and worked well in my Porter Cable finish nailer. The plastic box of nails was packaged by placing in a plastic envelope with no packing material. Essentially they were beat around in the shipping process and arrived as shown - nothing in the original package and many of the nail strips broken into smaller strips.

I'm sure the product works and I needed it for a job so no time to return it. I received what was obviously someone's return. Case was broken at the lid, no plastic wrap (so it wasn't new), nails all over inside the package. Didn't mind so much cause I mean they're just nails but I went and counted and there were 150 missing nails. Whoever had this before me took 150 nails and then returned it. 1 star for poor quality control at Amazon for this particular order.

I hate nails, especially if you're using them in the bathroom. I bought these because, to me, stainless steel is the only way to go. More expensive than regular steel nails but you don't have to worry about any rust. They fit perfectly in my Dewalt 16 gauge nail gun and had no problems at all. Definitely worth the money if you hate rust as I do.

Well they work, didn't jam, not much more to say.

I tried using cheap finish nails and they would jump crumple up when driving into Hardie trim. These drive in nice and clean with no problems.As with other reviewers the package came horribly mangled and I got a mailer with loose sheaths of nails.

5 stars for the nails themselves, minus 2 stars for the bad packaging. A 6 inch strip of tape over the top of the package would have kept the top of the case from popping open and spilling the nails all in the bubble wrap envelope. Just an aggravating oversight.

Product as advertised. Exciting to be able to order a broad range of stainless steel fasteners on Amazon. Buyer beware, the plastic case usually comes smashed and a couple of the nail strips broken up. The weight of the nails smashes the case to pieces. Not really designed for individual shipment in padded envelopes.
