FAQs

What are JCP Fixings Drive Pins used for?

They are used for secure and durable fastening in construction and DIY tasks, typically attaching materials to concrete, steel, or wood using powder-actuated tools.

What size are these drive pins?

The drive pins measure 72mm in length and 3.7mm in diameter.

Do I need a special tool to use these drive pins?

Yes, these drive pins are designed for use with powder-actuated fastening tools.

How many drive pins are in a box?

Each box contains 100 drive pins.

What is the benefit of the washered head?

The washered head provides a larger surface area, distributing the holding force and preventing the pin from pulling through softer materials.

Can I use these for interior decoration projects?

While they provide a clean silver finish, their primary use is structural fastening. For lighter decorative items, manual fasteners might be more appropriate unless a powder-actuated tool is necessary for the substrate.

How should I store the drive pins?

Store them in a dry environment, keeping the packaging sealed to protect against moisture and corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Drive pin does not penetrate the material.

Check that the correct power level is set on the powder-actuated tool. Ensure the tool is functioning correctly and the pin is seated properly. Verify the substrate material is suitable for drive pin fastening.

Drive pin bends or breaks upon impact.

The power level may be too high for the material, or the material may be too hard. Try a lower power setting or a different type of fastener if the material is unsuitable for drive pins.

Powder-actuated tool misfires or jams.

Consult your powder-actuated tool's manual for troubleshooting specific to the tool. Ensure the tool is clean, properly maintained, and loaded correctly. Always follow safety procedures.

Inconsistent fastening depth.

Ensure the power setting on the tool is consistent for each shot. Check for any debris or obstructions on the tool's nose piece or the fastening surface.
