KYA 2.87×64mm 21-degree plastic strip nail-screw fasteners are threaded construction fasteners designed to combine rapid pneumatic installation with the ability to engage a compatible drive bit for adjustment or removal when the selected head and drive configuration permits.
The featured size uses a nominal 2.87mm core diameter and 64mm / approximately 2-1/2" length. KYA lists the product within a 21-degree plastic-strip system with carbon steel construction, threaded shank options and 20–25 fasteners per strip.
The current product specification identifies electro-galvanized steel as the featured finish. Other drive, thread and finish configurations belong to the broader nail-screw family and should be confirmed separately when ordering.

Unlike a conventional smooth or ring-shank framing nail, a nail-screw fastener uses a threaded shank. It is driven rapidly with a compatible pneumatic framing nailer, while compatible drive-head versions can subsequently be rotated with the corresponding bit when adjustment or removal is required.
This design is useful in production environments where installation speed is important but the assembly may also benefit from a threaded fastener profile or later disassembly.
The featured fastener uses a nominal 2.87mm core diameter, approximately .113". KYA's family specification lists a core diameter range of approximately 2.8–2.9mm.
Because the fastener uses a threaded shank, the maximum outside diameter across the threads is larger than the steel core. KYA currently lists approximately 3.2–3.5mm for the family.
Both core diameter and maximum thread diameter should be considered when evaluating tool feeding and application requirements.
The exact product shown on this page is 64mm long. Choose the fastener length according to attached material thickness, required penetration and the fastening specification for the assembly.
The fasteners are collated in a plastic strip for compatible 20–22 degree framing-nailer systems. The actual nailer must also accept the length, core diameter, thread outside diameter, head geometry and strip configuration.
Plastic collation should not be described as completely debris-free or universally jam-free. Feeding performance depends on strip quality, tool design, fastener geometry, loading and tool condition.
The screw-style thread creates a different wood engagement profile from a conventional smooth nail. Final holding performance depends on thread geometry, wood species, density, moisture content, embedment depth and installation conditions.
KYA lists Phillips, Torx T25, Pozi and Square drive configurations within the nail-screw family. Specify the required drive style when ordering rather than assuming every 2.87×64mm version uses the same head.
The drive feature is useful where the installed fastener needs to be adjusted or removed later. Removal performance depends on the exact head design, drive recess, installation depth and condition of the fastener.
| Feature | Threaded Nail-Screw | Conventional Framing Nail |
|---|---|---|
| Shank | Screw-style thread | Smooth, ring or conventional screw-shank nail profile |
| Installation | Driven with a compatible framing nailer | Driven with a compatible framing nailer |
| Drive Recess | Available on specified nail-screw head configurations | Normally not provided |
| Adjustment / Removal | Selected drive-head versions can be rotated after installation | Normally removed by pulling or prying rather than unscrewing |
| Selection | Useful when threaded engagement and potential removability are desired | Use where the project specifies conventional framing nails |
A nail-screw should not automatically replace a code-specified structural nail or structural screw. Fastener substitution in structural assemblies should follow the applicable design, evaluation or project requirements.
The 64mm threaded plastic-strip configuration is suited to wood fastening applications where its dimensions, thread style, finish and tool system match the assembly requirement.
Wood framing and component assembly
Wall sheathing
Subfloor and flooring-related fastening where the system permits nail-screws
Pallet manufacturing

Millwork and timber-component assembly
Temporary or serviceable wood assemblies where a removable drive-head fastener is useful
Do not treat this 21-degree nail-screw as a roofing nail for asphalt shingles or metal roofing solely because the previous page listed roofing as an application. Roofing systems generally require specific head geometry, corrosion protection, washers or dedicated roofing fasteners.
The current technical specification for this product identifies electro-galvanized carbon steel as the featured finish. Electro-galvanizing provides a zinc-coated surface, but it should not automatically be treated as a heavy exterior corrosion-protection system.
For continuously wet conditions, coastal exposure, pressure-treated lumber or other corrosive environments, confirm whether a different coating or stainless steel configuration is required.
| Finish | General Selection Guidance |
|---|---|
| Electro-Galvanized | Featured configuration on this page; suitable where the specified zinc finish meets the environmental requirements |
| Bright | Separate family option for dry, protected applications where corrosion protection is not required |
| Hot-Dip Galvanized | Separate family option where a heavier galvanized coating is required; confirm exact availability and specification |
| Mechanical Galvanized | Separate coating option; confirm coating specification for the required size |
| Stainless Steel | Separate material configuration for applications requiring stainless steel corrosion resistance, when available |
The 2.87×64mm nail-screw falls into the same general dimensional class as common .113" × 2-1/2" plastic-strip framing fasteners. However, a threaded nail-screw can differ from an ordinary framing nail in maximum thread diameter, head geometry and drive recess.
For this reason, published framing-nailer dimensions should be treated as a first compatibility check rather than an unconditional approval.
| Reference Tool / System | Published Fastener Range | 2.87×64mm Guidance |
|---|---|---|
| FASCO F58AC RHN20-90B SCR | Dedicated 20° plastic-strip nail-screw system; comparable .113" × 2-1/2" threaded fasteners published | Strong industry reference for this fastener class; compare exact strip, head, core and thread dimensions |
| Metabo HPT NR90AES1 | 21° plastic collated; 2"–3-1/2"; .113"–.148" | 64mm length and nominal .113" core fall within the published framing-nail range; confirm nail-screw head and thread clearance before use |
| MAX SN883RH3 | 21° plastic/paper strip; 2"–3-1/4"; .113"–.148" | Basic dimensions are within range; confirm head diameter, drive-head shape and plastic-strip geometry |
| BOSTITCH F21PL | 21° plastic-collated framing nailer platform | Do not claim universal compatibility without confirming the exact nail-screw head and strip geometry |
| Other 20–22° Framing Nailers | Varies by manufacturer | Check length, core diameter, maximum thread diameter, head shape, drive recess and strip angle before use |
A threaded nail-screw has at least two important diameter measurements. The core diameter represents the steel body beneath the threads, while the thread outside diameter represents the maximum diameter across the thread crests.
| Nominal Product Diameter | 2.87mm |
| Core Diameter Range | Approximately 2.8–2.9mm |
| Thread Outside Diameter Range | Approximately 3.2–3.5mm |
This distinction is especially important when checking a nail-screw against a framing nailer originally designed around conventional smooth or ring-shank nails.
KYA lists fine-thread and coarse-thread versions within this plastic-strip nail-screw family. Thread selection should be matched to the wood material and required fastening behavior.
| Thread Type | Selection Guidance |
|---|---|
| Fine Thread | Common nail-screw configuration used in a wide range of wood assembly, framing, sheathing and pallet applications |
| Coarse Thread | Alternative thread profile for applications where a coarser engagement pattern is required |
Do not assume that fine and coarse thread versions provide identical withdrawal values. Performance depends on the exact thread geometry and receiving material and should be validated for performance-critical assemblies.
Drive-head configurations are relevant when the fastener needs to be adjusted or removed after pneumatic installation. KYA currently lists several drive options within this family.
| Drive Type | Ordering Guidance |
|---|---|
| Torx T25 | Specify T25 when a Torx drive configuration is required |
| Phillips | Available within the family; specify the required Phillips drive configuration |
| Square | Common drive format in comparable plastic-strip nail-screw systems |
| Pozi | Alternative family option where required |
The drive recess should not be described as completely eliminating cam-out. Correct bit fit, screw condition, applied torque and installation depth all affect removal or adjustment performance.
Comparable professional nail-screw products show why exact dimensions matter when cross-referencing brands.
| Parameter | KYA 2.87×64mm | Comparable 20° Plastic Strip System |
|---|---|---|
| Nominal Length | 64mm / approximately 2-1/2" | Approximately 63–65mm / 2-1/2" |
| Core Diameter | 2.87mm nominal | Approximately 2.9mm |
| Thread OD | Approximately 3.2–3.5mm family range | Approximately 3.2–3.3mm depending on thread |
| Collation | 21° Plastic Strip | 20° Plastic Strip |
| Finish | Electro-Galvanized featured configuration | EG and proprietary coated configurations commonly available |
These similarities make cross-brand comparison useful, but they do not establish automatic interchangeability. Strip pitch, head geometry, drive recess and tool magazine design also need to match.
| Selection Factor | What to Confirm |
|---|---|
| Fastener Length | 64mm length must provide suitable penetration after passing through the attached material |
| Core Diameter | Confirm the approximately 2.87mm core is within the nailer's fastener range |
| Thread Outside Diameter | Ensure the maximum threaded diameter can pass through the magazine and nose |
| Thread Type | Specify fine or coarse according to the application |
| Drive Style | Specify Torx T25, Phillips, Square or Pozi where adjustment or removal is required |
| Finish | Select the coating according to moisture, treated wood and environmental exposure |
| Nailer | Provide exact tool manufacturer and model for compatibility checking |

The featured fastener has a nominal 2.87mm core diameter and 64mm length, approximately .113" × 2-1/2".
The KYA product is collated at a nominal 21-degree angle.
The core diameter measures the underlying fastener body, while the outside diameter measures across the thread crests. KYA lists approximately 2.8–2.9mm core diameter and 3.2–3.5mm maximum outside diameter within this family.
The current technical table for this product identifies electro-galvanized as the featured finish. Hot-dip galvanized belongs to the broader family and should be specified separately if required.
Do not assume so. Treated lumber can require a specific galvanized coating or stainless steel fastener. Confirm the wood preservative and required fastener specification before ordering.
Outdoor suitability depends on the finish and exposure conditions. The featured electro-galvanized configuration should not automatically be specified for severe weather, coastal exposure or pressure-treated lumber without confirming corrosion requirements.
Drive-head versions can be adjusted or removed with the matching bit when the head remains accessible and undamaged. Specify the required drive style when ordering.
No drive system should be described as completely eliminating cam-out. Correct bit fit, fastener condition, installation depth and applied torque affect removal and adjustment.
No absolute zero-debris claim should be made. Plastic strip systems can release small pieces of collation material during firing depending on tool and strip design.
The NR90AES1 accepts 21-degree plastic-collated fasteners from 2" to 3-1/2" with .113"–.148" shank diameters, so the nominal 64mm length and 2.87mm core fall within its published framing-nail range. Confirm the threaded outside diameter, head shape and plastic-strip geometry before use.
The MAX SN883RH3 accepts 21-degree plastic-collated full-round-head fasteners from 2" to 3-1/4" with .113"–.148" diameters. The basic KYA dimensions fall within that window, but complete nail-screw geometry must be checked before use.
The F21PL is a 21-degree plastic-collated framing nailer platform, but nail-screw compatibility should not be assumed solely from the collation angle. Confirm the head, maximum threaded diameter and strip geometry.
They can be used in compatible wood framing and component-assembly applications where this fastener specification is permitted. Do not substitute them for a code-specified structural fastener without confirmation.
Yes, threaded plastic-strip fasteners are used in pallet and crate manufacturing where their dimensions and holding characteristics suit the assembly.
Do not treat this product as a general metal-roofing fastener. Metal roofing systems commonly require specific screw heads, sealing washers, corrosion protection and substrate requirements.
KYA currently lists approximately 20–25 fasteners per plastic strip within this product family.
The current KYA product information lists 1,000 pieces per carton for this nail-screw family.
Provide the required quantity, 2.87×64mm size, fine or coarse thread, drive type, finish, framing nailer manufacturer and exact model, application, receiving material and delivery destination.
