Guest Ouch Posted March 27, 2001 Share Posted March 27, 2001 Can anyone tell me what the comparable thickness is to a 16 penny nail in steel bars? Would it be for example 1/8,1/4..... etc???? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Black Posted March 27, 2001 Share Posted March 27, 2001 My 16d finishing nails are 3.5" long and just a bit under 1/8” thick, probably about 3/32”. Nails are much cheaper than bars. If you use 1/8 bars, the hot rolled is softer than the cold rolled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
