Bostitch 28° Bright Ring Shank Stick Nails 2.8 x 50mm (2000 Pack)

The Bostitch 28° Bright Ring Shank Stick Nails offer a robust solution for framing applications, specifically designed for use with Stanley Bostitch Wire Weld Framing Nailers. Their traditional wire weld collation enhances rigidity and provides excellent resistance against damp environments, making them suitable for various construction conditions.

These nails feature a 28° collation angle, which is ideal for optimised tool operation. Designed with the construction market in mind, stick nails are lighter and easier to manage, particularly in overhead or high-access scenarios. With fewer nails per stick (approximately 25) compared to coiled nails, the overall tool weight is reduced, improving user comfort and efficiency—essential when working on ladders or extended surfaces.

Features & Benefits

• Ring shank design – Provides superior holding power compared to smooth shank nails, making them ideal for applications requiring strong, long-lasting fastening.
• Bright finish – Economical and suitable for one-way applications such as disposable pallets. Note that they are untreated and may rust over time.
• 50mm length & 2.8mm diameter – Ideal for medium-duty framing tasks, ensuring secure penetration and grip.
• 2000-nail pack – Convenient packaging for large-scale projects, ensuring you have ample supply.

Comparison with Smooth Shank Nails

• Ring shank nails – More resistant to withdrawal but require higher driving energy and air consumption than smooth shank nails.
• Smooth shank nails – More economical and easier to drive but offer reduced holding power.

Applications

These ring shank stick nails are perfect for general construction, framing, and pallet assembly, especially in applications where strong bond retention is critical.
