Ordered the new Bostich N66C to nail my siding but haven’t found the SS fastners. Checked at the big boxes and one local lumber who was calling Bostich but hasn’t gotten back to me…any suggestions?
Thanks,
D

To prevent moisture buildup and improve performance, install a continuous air barrier—such as drywall or specialized membranes—under tongue-and-groove boards or other interior wall paneling.

Unless you're the lead dog, the view just never changes.
Maze nail is one, but you'll be able to find them at local building supply houses or siding supply houses. Check out the coils that are plastic rather than the wire.

Here's a siding/roofing supply house that has locations nationwide. They really do not like to sell to the general public, most they deal with contractors but you might talk them into it.

Thank DDay,
What's the preference for the plastic vs. wire...I've used the wire in my shingle nailer w/o problems and they cost significantly less
Thanks
I hate the plastic collated nails for my MAX Siding nailer, too much trash to deal with, and often nails coming loose are wasted. Spheramid Enterprises Architectural Woodworks
