FASTENING MULTIGRIPS
BUILD WITH CONFIDENCE
WHERE POSSIBLE, HAND NAILING WITH PRYDA TIMBER CONNECTOR NAILS IS ALWAYS PREFERRED, WHY?
• Pryda Timber Connector Nails are forged in one piece, unlike clouts that are two pieces soldered together, meaning the head can pop off
• Pryda Nails are the correct diameter, ensuring a tight fit in prepunched holes = a stronger connection
• Design values and testing have all been conducted using Pryda Timber Connector Nails
• Hand hammered nails ensure correct nail positioning and drive depth (not driven to shallow or too deep)
MACHINE DRIVEN NAILS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED FOR FIXING LONG MULTIGRIPS,
MULTIGRIPS AND MINIGRIPS.
