KYA DA57R 15 gauge 34° ring shank finish nails are 57mm / 2-1/4 inch angled finish fasteners designed for compatible DA-style 15GA finish nailers. The fastener uses an approximately 3.10mm head width, 1.76 x 1.76mm shank profile, ring shank and chisel point for professional trim, molding, cabinetry, furniture and finish-carpentry applications.
The ring shank introduces annular deformations along the fastener body, increasing mechanical engagement with suitable wood fibers compared with a comparable smooth-shank fastener. Actual withdrawal performance depends on wood species, density, moisture content, penetration depth and the complete joint design.
The 34° angled DA strip allows compatible finish nailers to work around corners and confined trim locations while the 57mm length provides deeper penetration than shorter DA25, DA32, DA38, DA45 and DA50 sizes.

15 Gauge DA Style: professional angled finish-nail format for compatible DA-style nailers.
57mm / 2-1/4" length: longer DA-series fastener for applications requiring deeper penetration.
34° angled collation: DA-style strip configuration for compatible angled finish nailers.
Ring shank: annular shank profile provides additional engagement with suitable wood fibers.
1.76 x 1.76mm wire: approximately 0.069" x 0.069" 15GA fastener profile.
3.10mm head width: compact finish-nail head for professional trim and woodworking applications.
Chisel point: standard finish-fastener point configuration for wood applications.
Galvanized and 304 stainless options: select according to the required service environment.
100 nails per stick: KYA DA-series strip packing.
4,000 nails per box: bulk packaging for distributors and professional users.

The table above shows the wider KYA DA-series size range. This product page specifically focuses on the DA57R 57mm / 2-1/4-inch ring-shank configuration. Confirm the required shank, material and exact size when ordering.
A conventional smooth-shank finish nail relies mainly on friction between the shank and surrounding wood. A ring-shank fastener uses annular deformations that increase engagement with surrounding wood fibers.
This makes ring-shank DA nails useful for selected woodworking assemblies where additional resistance to withdrawal is desirable. The benefit varies with the substrate, ring geometry, penetration and joint conditions, so no fixed percentage increase should be assumed.
| Shank Type | General Characteristic | Selection Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Ring Shank | Annular deformations create additional engagement with wood fibers. | Selected trim, cabinetry, furniture and woodworking applications where additional withdrawal resistance is desired. |
| Smooth Shank | Straight conventional finish-nail shank. | General finish carpentry where the specified smooth DA nail provides sufficient holding performance. |
DA57R uses the established 34° DA-style angled finish-nail format. The angled magazine geometry helps compatible finish nailers reach corners and restricted spaces around trim, casing, molding and cabinet assemblies.
DA-style nails should not be confused with other 15GA angled finish-nail systems. Matching gauge alone does not establish compatibility.
| Fastener System | General Format | Interchangeability |
|---|---|---|
| DA Style | 15GA angled finish-nail family using approximately 34° DA collation. | Use only in tools specified for the DA-style fastener format. |
| FN Style | Separate 15GA angled finish-nail geometry. | Do not substitute solely because gauge and length appear similar. |
SENCO identifies its 2-1/4-inch 15GA 34° DA fastener class as DA23. KYA DA57R uses the same nominal 2-1/4-inch length class together with the 15GA and 34° DA format, making SENCO DA23 useful as a market reference for buyers identifying this general fastener class.
| Reference | Gauge | Length | Angle | Shank |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| KYA DA57R | 15GA | 57mm / 2-1/4" | 34° DA | Ring Shank |
| SENCO DA23 Class | 15GA | 2-1/4" | 34° DA | Depends on exact SENCO SKU |
A similar gauge, length and collation angle do not automatically establish interchangeability. Confirm the exact head, shank geometry, strip construction and nailer specification before changing fastener brands.
DA57R is intended for compatible 15GA 34° DA-style angled finish nailers. KYA lists several DA-family cross-reference systems, but the exact nailer model should be checked before production use.
| Tool / Fastener Family | Selection Guidance |

The 57mm / 2-1/4-inch length can be useful for thicker baseboards, crown molding and other trim assemblies where a shorter finish nail would not provide sufficient penetration into the supporting material.
The correct nail length depends on molding thickness, wall construction, substrate and required penetration. Do not select DA57R solely because it is the longer option.
Ring-shank DA finish nails can be used in suitable cabinet and furniture assemblies where a 15GA fastener and 57mm penetration length are appropriate.
Check component thickness carefully to prevent excessive penetration or breakthrough. Furniture and cabinetry joints may also use adhesive, screws, dowels or other connections depending on the required joint performance.
The combination of a 15GA finish-nail profile and ring shank gives DA57R a different fastening characteristic from conventional smooth DA finish nails. It is particularly relevant where buyers want a finish-nail head together with increased shank engagement in the wood.
Always test ring-shank finish nails in the actual wood species and workpiece before production because the additional shank deformation can change driving behavior compared with a smooth-shank fastener.

| Material / Finish | General Selection Guidance |
|---|---|
| Galvanized Steel | Suitable for applications where the specified galvanized coating provides adequate corrosion protection. Confirm exact exposure requirements before exterior use. |
| 304 Stainless Steel | Provides greater corrosion resistance than standard carbon steel for moisture-sensitive applications. Confirm the required material and service environment before ordering. |
| Fastener Class | General Characteristic | Typical Selection |
|---|---|---|
| 15GA Finish Nail | Heavier finish-fastener profile. | Baseboards, casing, molding, cabinetry and heavier finish work. |
| 16GA Finish Nail | Intermediate finish-nail profile. | General trim, molding, furniture and woodworking. |
| 18GA Brad Nail | Smaller wire and head profile. | Light trim, decorative components, cabinetry and furniture details. |

Discuss Your DA57R Requirement
DA57R is KYA's 57mm / 2-1/4-inch 15 gauge 34° DA-style ring-shank finish nail.
No. A 45mm DA nail is approximately 1-3/4 inches. The KYA DA/57 size is approximately 2-1/4 inches.
DA57R uses a 34° DA-style angled strip.
The KYA DA Series on this page uses 34° collation. Other 15GA finish-nail systems may use different angles, which is why the exact DA specification should be checked before substitution.
The annular rings increase mechanical engagement with surrounding wood fibers and can increase resistance to withdrawal compared with a comparable smooth-shank nail. Actual performance depends on the material and joint.
Smooth-shank nails are common in the 15GA DA finish-nail market. Ring-shank versions are a more specialized configuration for applications where additional shank engagement is required.
The current KYA DA-series specification lists 100 nails per stick.
The current packing specification lists 4,000 nails per box.
The current DA-series packing table lists 4 boxes per carton.
The current KYA packing table lists 60 cartons per pallet for the DA/57 size.
The current range lists 25, 32, 38, 45, 50, 57 and 64mm, covering approximately 1 inch through 2-1/2 inches.
Both belong to the nominal 15GA, 34°, 2-1/4-inch DA fastener class. KYA DA57R specifically uses a ring shank. Confirm complete head, shank, collation and tool requirements before cross-brand substitution.
The SENCO F-15XP is a 15GA DA-style finish nailer with a published fastener length range that includes 2-1/4 inches. Confirm acceptance of the exact KYA ring-shank fastener geometry before production use.
BOSTITCH offers a dedicated 15GA DA-style finish-nail system, but compatibility depends on the exact nailer model, supported nail length and fastener geometry. Confirm the specific tool before use.
Yes, where a 57mm 15GA finish nail provides suitable penetration through the baseboard and into the supporting material.
Yes, for crown molding assemblies where the molding thickness and backing require a 2-1/4-inch finish nail. Select the actual nail length from the complete joint rather than the molding name alone.
DA57R can be used in suitable cabinet frames, built-ins and woodworking assemblies where the 15GA fastener profile and 57mm length are appropriate.
It can be used in suitable hardwood applications, but driving behavior depends on wood species, density, grain orientation, edge distance and nailer depth setting. Test the actual assembly before volume production.
Ring shanks can increase withdrawal resistance, but no fastener should be described as impossible to pull out. Performance depends on the wood, penetration and connection conditions.
No point geometry can guarantee that wood will not split. Wood species, moisture, edge distance, grain direction and tool orientation all affect splitting and nail deflection.
Outdoor suitability depends on the exact galvanized coating, moisture exposure, timber treatment and project specification. Confirm the required corrosion protection before exterior use.
KYA currently lists 304 stainless steel as an option within this DA product family. Confirm the required DA57R ring-shank configuration and current material availability before ordering.
DA57R is a finish nail intended for appropriate trim, cabinetry, furniture and woodworking applications. It should not replace structural framing nails, screws or engineered connectors where structural fastening is required.
Yes. Test magazine feeding, driving depth, head position, wood surface appearance and withdrawal performance in the intended nailer and actual workpiece before volume use.
