Made of strong material for a secure fit
What material are 21 gauge microbrads made of? Typically, micro brads are made of high-quality galvanized or stainless steel. If the microbrads are exposed to certain weather conditions, such as salt water, it is wise to use stainless steel mounting hardware. There is a misconception that stainless steel is harder than regular steel, but in reality it is actually slightly softer. Stainless steel fasteners are commonly used in sustainable construction projects. In coastal provinces, where fasteners are also exposed to salt from seawater, the use of stainless steel is strongly recommended.
A disadvantage of stainless steel is that it is considerably more expensive and contains a relatively large amount of nickel. Nickel is considerably more expensive than steel and largely determines the final price of stainless steel. Steel, on the other hand, contains little of this raw material and is therefore less affected. In general, the price of stainless steel is about 4 to 5 times higher than that of steel. In our offer you will find microbrads 21G in galvanized or stainless steel. You also have the option to select various lengths and quantities or order other types of finishing nails.
