D26-ST-18 Steel Framing Nail 1-Box (400pcs)

The ST-18 steel framing nail is the go-to fastener for picture framers who demand precision and consistency. Manufactured from high-carbon steel, each nail features a 17.4 mm total length and a sharp tapered point that drives cleanly into frame stock without pre-drilling.

Why Choose ST-18 Steel Framing Nails?

Frame joining requires a nail that holds firmly without cracking delicate moulding. The ST-18’s 2.3 mm wire diameter strikes the ideal balance between holding power and minimal wood displacement.
