DA identifies a widely used family of 15 gauge angled finish nails. DA-style nails are arranged in an angled strip so compatible finish nailers can place the nose of the tool into corners and other restricted spaces encountered in professional finish carpentry.
DA-style nails should not be selected solely by gauge. The nailer must accept the correct angled-strip system, nail dimensions, head geometry and length range.
KYA DA-series finish nails use a 34-degree angled strip. This matches the established DA-style format used by professional finish-fastener systems.
When replacing another brand of 15GA finish nail, check whether the nailer requires DA style or another finish-nail system. A 15GA nail with a different collation angle or head configuration should not automatically be substituted.
SENCO's professional 15GA DA-series range includes 1-1/2-inch 34° angled-strip finish nails with chisel-point configurations. This makes SENCO DA-series dimensions a useful reference when distributors or tool users are identifying the required fastener class.
| Reference | Gauge | Length | Collation | Point |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| KYA DA38 | 15GA | 38 mm / 1-1/2" | 34° DA Style | Chisel |
| SENCO DA17 Series | 15GA | 1-1/2" | 34° Angled Strip | Chisel or specified alternative depending on SKU |
Matching gauge, nominal length and angle indicate the same general DA fastener class, but exact tool compatibility should still be confirmed from the nailer's specified head, collation and dimensional requirements.
| Fastener System | Identification | Selection Guidance |
|---|---|---|
| DA Style | 15GA angled finish-nail family using the DA-style magazine and strip configuration. | Use only in tools specified for the DA-style fastener system. |
| FN Style | A separate 15GA angled finish-nail system with different fastener geometry. | Do not assume interchangeability with DA-style nails even when gauge and length are similar. |
DA38 is intended for compatible 15GA DA-style angled finish nailers. The following tool and fastener families are useful references when checking an existing production setup.
| Tool / System Reference | DA38 Guidance |
|---|---|
| SENCO F-15XP / FinishPro DA Platforms | SENCO specifies 15GA 34° DA angled-strip nails within this tool family, including 1-1/2-inch fasteners. |
| BOSTITCH 15GA DA Style Platform | BOSTITCH distinguishes its DA-style angled finish nailer and DA-style fasteners from the separate FN platform. Confirm exact tool model and fastener geometry. |
| Duo-Fast DA | Listed by KYA as a DA-style tool reference. Confirm the specific tool's angle, length range and magazine requirements before use. |
| FASCO BA | Listed within the KYA cross-reference information; verify the exact tool model before production use. |

The 38 mm / 1-1/2-inch DA38 provides a mid-range length within KYA's 25–64 mm DA series. It offers greater penetration than 1-inch and 1-1/4-inch nails while remaining shorter than 1-3/4-inch, 2-inch and 2-1/2-inch finish nails.
This makes DA38 useful for many casing, molding, furniture and cabinet applications where a 15GA fastener is required but a longer nail would provide unnecessary penetration.
DA38 15GA angled finish nails are used in suitable professional finish carpentry and woodworking operations including cabinet components, furniture, trim, baseboard, molding, door and window casing, decorative woodwork and panel assemblies.
For flooring, cladding or other specialized assemblies, confirm that the project or material manufacturer permits a 15GA finish nail and that the selected 38 mm length provides appropriate penetration.
15GA finish nails are commonly selected for trim and molding applications that require a heavier fastener than an 18GA brad. The 38 mm DA38 can be used where its length provides suitable penetration through the trim and into the supporting material.
For thicker molding or connections requiring more penetration, select a longer DA-series nail based on the workpiece thickness and substrate.
DA38 can be used for appropriate cabinet face frames, furniture components, decorative trim and other woodworking assemblies where a 15GA angled finish nail provides the required fastening capacity.
Fastener selection should consider board thickness, wood density, edge distance, required penetration and whether adhesive or another mechanical connection is also used.
| Shank Type | General Characteristic |
|---|---|
| Smooth Shank | Standard finish-nail configuration for trim, molding, furniture and cabinetry applications. |
| Ring Shank | Shank deformations increase mechanical engagement with suitable wood and can increase withdrawal resistance compared with a comparable smooth-shank configuration. |
| Material / Finish | Selection Guidance |
|---|---|
| Galvanized Steel | General finish carpentry and woodworking where the specified galvanized configuration provides adequate corrosion protection. |
| 304 Stainless Steel | Applications requiring greater corrosion resistance than standard carbon-steel fasteners. Confirm environmental and project requirements before selection. |
| Fastener | General Characteristic | Typical Selection |
|---|---|---|
| 15GA Angled Finish Nail | Heavier finish-nail profile with angled magazine system. | Baseboard, casing, molding, cabinetry and heavier finish work. |
| 16GA Finish Nail | Intermediate finish-fastener size. | General trim, molding and woodworking. |
| 18GA Brad Nail | Smaller profile and smaller fastening mark. | Light trim, cabinet details, decorative molding and furniture components. |
| Selection Factor | What to Check |
|---|---|
| Workpiece Thickness | Select enough nail length to pass through the finish material and provide appropriate penetration into the substrate. |
| Substrate | Consider solid wood, engineered wood, MDF or other receiving material. |
| Tool Range | Confirm that the DA-style nailer accepts the selected nail length. |
| Fastening Capacity | Select the gauge and length required by the actual connection rather than choosing a longer nail automatically. |
| Environment | Choose galvanized or stainless material according to corrosion exposure and project requirements. |

DA and FN are different angled finish-nail systems. Although both can be 15 gauge, their head, collation and magazine geometry differ. Use the fastener system specified by the nailer manufacturer.
SENCO publishes 15GA 34° DA-style tools and a 1-1/2-inch DA-series fastener class. DA38 therefore belongs to the same general gauge, angle and length class. Confirm the exact tool model and fastener profile before changing brands.
Both are 15GA, 1-1/2-inch, 34-degree DA-style finish nails. SENCO offers several DA17 configurations with different finish and point specifications, so compare the exact SKU and tool requirements before substitution.
BOSTITCH offers a dedicated 15GA DA-style finish-nail platform in addition to its separate FN-style system. Confirm the exact BOSTITCH nailer model and required DA fastener before cross-brand use.
Yes, where a 38 mm 15GA finish nail provides the required penetration into the supporting material. Thicker baseboards or different substrates may require another nail length.
Yes. Door and window casing are typical applications for 15GA angled finish nails when the fastener length and substrate are appropriate for the assembly.
DA38 can be used for suitable cabinet face frames, trim and other woodworking components. Check board thickness and required penetration before use.
Ring-shank deformations increase engagement with suitable wood and can increase withdrawal resistance compared with a comparable smooth-shank fastener. Actual performance depends on the material and connection.
KYA currently lists 304 stainless steel as an available material option within this DA finish-nail product family. Confirm the required length, shank configuration and current availability when ordering.
Suitability depends on the actual galvanized coating, moisture exposure, wood treatment and project requirements. For demanding exterior or corrosive environments, specify the required corrosion-resistant material instead of assuming every galvanized finish is equivalent.
No finish nail can guarantee that wood will not split. Wood species, density, moisture content, edge distance, grain direction, nail location and drive depth all influence the result.
DA38 is a finish fastener intended for suitable trim and woodworking applications. It should not replace structural framing nails, screws or engineered connectors where a structural fastening specification is required.
Yes. Check strip feeding, magazine fit, head position, drive depth and fastening performance in the actual nailer and workpiece before full-volume production.
