Framing Fasteners Built for Speed

Framing is high-volume fastening — a single house can require thousands of nails driven in a matter of days. The collated framing nails we carry are engineered for smooth feeding through pneumatic nailers, consistent driving depth, and reliable holding power in dimensional lumber. We stock nails for Bostitch, Senco, Paslode, Hitachi/Metabo HPT, and Max framing nailers, in the angles and lengths each tool requires.

For structural connections that exceed what nails can deliver, GRK RSS structural screws provide superior withdrawal resistance and shear strength. These self-tapping screws eliminate pre-drilling and are ideal for engineered connections like holdowns, strap ties, and multi-ply beam fastening. Our team can provide load data for code-compliant structural connections.

Framing crews also need cap staples for house wrap, wall sheathing, and subfloor attachment. We carry cap staple systems that meet building code requirements for sheathing attachment in high-wind zones, along with standard collated staples for general fastening.

Pneumatic Nailers for Framing

Framing nailers are the workhorse tools of any framing crew. We carry pneumatic framing nailers from Bostitch, Senco, and Paslode — the three brands most trusted by professional framers. Each brand offers different weight, balance, and driving power characteristics, and our team can help you select the right nailer for your crew's preferences and typical framing applications.

Proper air supply is critical for consistent nailer performance. We carry air compressors from Rol-Air and California Air Tool that are sized for framing crew demands. A properly matched compressor ensures consistent driving depth without lag or misfires. We also stock air hoses, fittings, and regulators to complete your pneumatic system.

For framing crews that prefer cordless tools, we carry cordless framing nailers that eliminate hoses and compressors entirely. These tools use battery power and, in some cases, fuel cells to drive full-round-head framing nails with performance comparable to pneumatic nailers.

Tool Repair for Framing Crews

Framing nailers work hard — abrasive sawdust, high-volume use, and tough lumber take a toll on internal components. Our repair technicians stock common replacement parts like driver blades, O-rings, and feed pistons for fast turnaround on the most common framing nailer repairs. We understand that a failed nailer can sideline an entire crew, so we prioritize quick service.

We recommend that framing crews schedule preventive maintenance during the winter off-season. Nailers that receive regular cleaning, lubrication, and parts replacement perform more reliably and last longer than tools that are run until they fail. Our batch maintenance service is ideal for framing crews with multiple nailers.
