Nails Bostitch BRT 3.8 x 120 mm, 1,288 pcs (KB380120) for framing and construction

Bostitch BRT 3.8 x 120 mm nails in a pack of 1,288 pieces are smooth-shank fastening nails designed for framing, structural carpentry and general construction work. These nails are intended for use where a 3.8 mm diameter and 120 mm length provide secure penetration and holding power in timber elements. Supplied in bulk for jobsite or workshop use, the nails are suitable for nail guns or manual driving when the tool accepts this size.

Advantages

These nails offer consistent smooth-shank geometry for predictable driving and withdrawal resistance in common wood species. The 120 mm length ensures deep embedment for framing members and structural connections, while the uniform size across the pack simplifies inventory and planning on site. The large quantity is suitable for continuous tasks without frequent repurchasing.

How to use

Select a compatible nail gun or use manual driving tools that accept 3.8 x 120 mm nails. Position the workpieces securely and ensure proper alignment before driving. For powered tools, follow the tool manufacturer’s recommended pressure and safety settings. For manual use, pre-drill pilot holes when working near edges or in dense hardwoods to reduce splitting. Verify each driven nail is fully seated or countersunk as required by the application and building practice.

Recommendations

Store nails in a dry place to prevent surface corrosion and handle with eye protection and gloves during use. Choose a fastening pattern and spacing that meet local building codes for framing and structural connections. If corrosion resistance is needed for exterior or treated timber applications, consider using coated or stainless alternatives appropriate for the environment.
