The Fasco/Beck PS1231E nails are heavy-duty framing fasteners designed for efficiency and high-volume use — perfect for framing, sheathing, subfloors, decking, pallet/crate building, and general wood-to-wood construction. Each nail measures 3-1/4" long with a .131" diameter shank, giving excellent penetration and holding power for structural and load-bearing applications.
These nails feature a clipped-head design for compact collation, allowing tighter packing in 31° paper-tape strips. This increases magazine capacity and reduces reload frequency — a major advantage on busy job sites. The diamond-point tip ensures smooth, accurate drives and reduces wood splitting, while the standard steel finish is suitable for typical framing and construction tasks. With 2,500 nails per box, this pack is ideal for large-scale projects, commercial framing, or repeated use across multiple jobs.
