Simpson Strong-Tie T18N200FNB Straight, Adhesive Collation, T-Style Head, 18-Gauge Brads — 2 in. Type 316 (500-Qty)

They work well. No problems. I used a couple thousand nails. I bought them because I wanted to make sure I did not see any corrosion over time. I probably could have saved money and bought the 304ss.I did not have one jam. I am using a pneumatic Bostitch Smart Point nailer that is a couple years old, but has several projects on it already. I was using 7/8" cedar boards and did not see any splitting. All nails were driven into the wood the same depth (cedar top layer and pressure treated lumber bottom layer).I do not have any complaints.

So I have a Old Black and Decker 12 volt cordless nailer that I have used consistently for a few years and it has performed flawlessly using bostich brad nails. So I am starting to do some work that requires stainless steel brads and I purchased these in 2". The B&D shoots these in Bostich steel all day long and with no jambing. I don't even get into my second stick and these things misfire and after clearing the jamb, put a new stick and shoot about 7 nails and another jamb. But this time it screws up my B&D plunger in the gun and it won't finish firing. So I go get a Bostich Air Brad Nailer and these brads jamb it as well constantly but have not bent the plunger yet so buyer beware. This is the first time that this has happened in my guns and I fully blame these nails. As soon as I finish this required project. I will trash the remainder of nails and attempt using another brand of brads if need be in stainless steel. I lost the use of a nice tool and I hope that I can get it repaired because of these nails.'t

A few of the nails jammed in my brad nailer, I haven't had this problem with standard brads so I believe the brand might be the issue. Too soon to tell if they'll stand the test of time but so far they seem good.

As expected. Not sure what else to say!

I use these to install pvc trim, other types will turn black or rust then bleed onto the trim. Don't be cheap, buy once, cry once.

I bought these before shopping around. $35 ish dollars for 500 nails seemed steep and after buying a pack and needed more I realized these are way way over priced. Found some for $8 at Home Depot for double the amount. Both stainless steel 2” nails.
