Paper Strip Nails
Rhinails
Factory-direct pricing on paper-collated framing nails — smooth, spiral, and ring shank in 50mm, 60mm, 83mm lengths.
Send InquiryRhinails Paper Strip Nails are paper-collated framing nails designed for use with 28° and 34° framing nailers. Available in 50mm, 60mm, and 83mm lengths with diameters of 2.87mm and 3.05mm, these nails cover the full range of framing applications — from light-duty sheathing and subflooring (50mm) to heavy structural framing and ledger board connections (83mm). The paper collation strip holds nails securely during rapid firing while leaving minimal residue in the tool magazine, reducing jam frequency and maintenance downtime compared to plastic-collated alternatives.
Three shank variants are available to match specific holding requirements:
Smooth Shank — Friction-based retention, ideal for temporary bracing, sheathing, and applications where nails may need removal
Spiral Shank — Threaded grooves that screw into wood fibers, providing enhanced withdrawal resistance for roofing and decking
Ring Shank — Concentric ring grooves that create irreversible mechanical lock, the strongest option for permanent structural framing
Materials include Q235 carbon steel (standard construction grade) and stainless steel (for corrosive environments or exterior applications requiring long-term rust resistance). All variants feature a diamond point tip that penetrates hardwood and engineered lumber cleanly without splitting.

Paper collated nails offer two critical advantages over plastic-collated alternatives in professional framing operations:
Reduced tool jamming — Paper strips break cleanly at the drive point, leaving almost no residue in the nailer magazine. Plastic collation fragments accumulate in the feed mechanism, causing intermittent jams that slow production and require frequent cleaning, especially in cold weather where plastic becomes brittle
No plastic debris in finished work — Plastic collation fragments can embed between the nail head and the wood surface, creating small gaps that compromise joint integrity and leave visible debris on finished surfaces. Paper collation disintegrates during driving, leaving clean nail-to-wood contact
These advantages are especially important for high-volume framing crews where nailer downtime directly impacts project timelines, and for finished woodwork where surface cleanliness affects client acceptance.
Choosing the right length and shank type depends on structural load and permanence requirements:
50mm (2") — Sheathing, subflooring, light-duty bracing, and temporary framing. Best paired with smooth shank for removal flexibility
60mm (2-3/8") — General framing, wall stud-to-plate connections, decking, and roof sheathing. The most versatile length for residential construction
83mm (3-1/4") — Heavy structural framing, ledger board connections, beam-to-post joints, and engineered lumber. Best paired with ring shank for irreversible permanent connections

Get Free QuoteRhinails paper strip nails are designed for 28° and 34° framing nailers — the standard angle configurations used in professional construction. The paper collation strip feeds smoothly through the magazine without plastic residue buildup. Contact us with your nailer model number for specific compatibility confirmation.
Smooth shank nails rely on friction and are easiest to remove — ideal for temporary bracing and sheathing. Spiral shank nails feature helical grooves that screw into wood for enhanced withdrawal resistance — best for roofing and decking. Ring shank nails use concentric rings that create an irreversible lock — the strongest option for permanent structural framing where withdrawal is unacceptable.
Standard MOQ varies by packaging format (bulk boxes, custom-labeled boxes). For sample orders and trial quantities, we offer flexible minimums to help you evaluate product quality before committing to larger volumes. Contact us for MOQ details specific to your packaging preference and destination.
Paper collation breaks cleanly at the drive point, leaving minimal residue in the nailer magazine and no plastic debris between the nail and wood surface. Plastic collation can fragment and accumulate in the tool feed mechanism, causing intermittent jams, and leave colored plastic debris on finished surfaces. Paper collation is preferred for high-volume professional framing where tool reliability and surface cleanliness are critical.
