Concrete Nails Has anyone ever used a powder driven tool for driving nails into the concrete? My one small problem. Half the time, the nails are recessed into the concrete the whole way. Instead they bend, and the chip on a small piece of surrounding concrete. I am using a level 4 charge, where 5 is highest. a company called red head is a masonry screw with a hexagonal head 5 / 16 (the actual color of the screw is in blue), im an electrician I used them to secure high-intensity lights wall concrete block walls with brick and red. I know that Home Depot (dump) has uh no.But my father, he does not drive them into does.But Concreate Try to pre-drill before driving nails calliber try the next lower Different types of concrete have different levels of hardness. The kind we used was like a cannon and used as a shell 22 to fire the nail into concrete, has always worked for us. All that I know. How much wood do you go? First, follow the instructions. If you think this does not work, you can buy new cartridges and go for more power higher. Are you using the right type of nail concrete? Nail Concrete does not bend and do normal nail folds??? Try less formula / power.Me I do it all the time with just a hammer, but frameing nails should be concrete nails (as hard as you can find) Ask someone who knows what they are doing before you hurt, these tools are not amateurs. Well I speak generally here .... Old concrete is more difficult. Period. So, if you drive nails into concrete, very old, you might need the hardest shot. Also the length of the nail will cause problems if its too long. I have another idea for you. Simply use glue. A good line of PL Premium construction adhesive or other cool place once it heals. Remember the use of treated wood in contact with the concrete strip to prevent damage from moisture - and Canada is the code. Posted on March 16, 2010.
