Paslode Nails Use Tough Tape™:
Less Scrap, Better Performance, No Flying Plastic

Vernon Hills, IL - Paslode's specially engineered Tough Tape nails eliminate the fragility, waste and mess of plastic collation for contractors. Both Paslode RounDrive® Brite and Hot Dipped Galvanized Plus nails are collated with Tough Tape, which holds up under harsh conditions such as wet weather. And, unlike plastic collated nails, Tough Tape will not break if a contractor drops a strip.

Paslode first engineered its patented paper tape collation method in 1978. Since then, Paslode has continuously improved manufacturing processes to develop nails that provide consistent nail placement within the strip to reduce or eliminate feeding problems, blank fires and jams, and stress on the driver blade. Tough Tape allows professionals to produce less waste and improve productivity which in turn saves them time and money.

The Tough Tape feature is offered with Paslode RounDrive® nails and provides 20% more nails per strip over plastic collated nails. This too saves loading time and improves overall job productivity. Paslode RounDrive® nails with Tough Tape are compatible with all Paslode pneumatic and cordless clipped head framing nailers, and most competitive clipped head nailers.

Paslode environmentally-friendly Tough Tape dispenses nails without littering worksites with discarded pieces of plastic. The use of plastic collated nails produces flying pieces of plastic that may strike workers and cause slippery work surfaces. Paslode RounDrive® won't create this litter and waste, thanks to Tough Tape.

Paslode, a division of Illinois Tool Works, is a leading manufacturer of cordless and pneumatic nailers, staplers, and fasteners. The company's products are widely used by professional remodelers and carpenters for framing, sheathing, trim and finish applications, fencing, floor and roof decking, siding, and insulation.
