These products are coated fasteners with a medium level of corrosion protection, making them suitable for use in some exterior and
corrosive environments and with some preservative-treated woods. For higher exposure applications, consider 300 series stainless-steel
fasteners for superior corrosion resistance. See pages 10-13 for addition important information.
Bright nails are not for use in exterior or preservative-treated wood applications.
