DA finish nails are a family of 15 gauge angled strip fasteners used with compatible DA-style finish nailers. The KYA version uses a nominal 34° collation angle, allowing the nailer magazine to approach corners and confined trim locations at an angle.
DA nails are commonly used for professional interior finishing because 15 gauge wire provides more holding capacity than thinner brads while still producing a substantially smaller fastening point than framing nails.
A 15 gauge finish nail has a heavier wire section than 16GA or 18GA finish fasteners. This makes it suitable for substantial molding, casing, baseboard and cabinet components where greater fastening strength is required.
The angled DA format is useful when fastening around corners, cabinet interiors, door frames and other locations where a straight magazine can be more difficult to position.
The chisel point supports controlled penetration into suitable wood. Correct tool orientation and depth adjustment are important for reducing splitting, nail deflection and excessive head setting.
The approximately 3.1mm head provides a useful bearing area for finish work while still allowing the driven head to be set below or close to the wood surface for filling and finishing where required.
| Item | Length | Nails / Strip | Nails / Box | Boxes / Carton | Cartons / Pallet |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DA/25 | 25mm / 1" | 100 | 4,000 | 4 | 120 |
| DA/32 | 32mm / 1-1/4" | 100 | 4,000 | 4 | 120 |
| DA/38 | 38mm / 1-1/2" | 100 | 4,000 | 4 | 90 |
| DA/45 | 45mm / 1-3/4" | 100 | 4,000 | 4 | 80 |
| DA/50 | 50mm / 2" | 100 | 4,000 | 4 | 60 |
| DA/57 | 57mm / 2-1/4" | 100 | 4,000 | 4 | 60 |
| DA/64 | 64mm / 2-1/2" | 100 | 4,000 | 4 | 60 |
Select nail length according to the thickness of the trim or workpiece, the receiving substrate and the required penetration. The longest nail is not automatically the correct nail because excessive length can increase the risk of breakthrough or deflection.
| DA Size | General Selection Guidance |
|---|---|
| DA25 / 25mm / 1" | Short finish work and thinner components where the nailer specifically accepts a 1-inch DA nail |
| DA32–DA38 / 1-1/4"–1-1/2" | Light-to-medium trim, paneling and smaller woodworking components |
| DA45–DA50 / 1-3/4"–2" | General baseboard, cabinetry, casing, furniture and molding applications |
| DA57–DA64 / 2-1/4"–2-1/2" | Thicker molding, substantial trim and applications requiring greater available penetration |
These are general selection guidelines. Always check the material thickness and the fastener-length range specified by the finish nailer manufacturer.
| Finish / Material | Corrosion Protection | General Selection |
|---|---|---|
| Bright Finish | Not intended to provide the corrosion protection of galvanized or stainless fasteners | Dry interior trim, cabinetry, furniture and protected finish work |
| Galvanized | Zinc-based corrosion protection depending on coating specification | Applications requiring more corrosion protection than bright finish; verify exterior suitability by specification |
| 304 Stainless Steel | Higher corrosion resistance | Moisture-sensitive or corrosion-sensitive applications where 304 stainless steel is specified |
The featured products use a Bright Finish for dry interior and protected finish-carpentry applications. Buyers requiring galvanized or stainless steel DA nails should specify the required material and service environment when requesting a quotation.
15GA DA nails provide a heavier finish fastener for substantial baseboards, crown molding and decorative profiles in dry interior environments.
The 34° angled strip format helps the nailer access corners around door jambs, window casings and other finish-carpentry details.
DA finish nails can be used for suitable cabinet face frames, built-in cabinetry, drawer fronts and related woodworking assemblies where a 15GA fastener is appropriate.
Furniture manufacturers and woodworking shops can use DA nails for appropriate frames, decorative components and assemblies where more holding strength is required than a thinner brad provides.
Selected DA lengths can be used for interior paneling, wainscoting and wood trim when nail length, substrate thickness and surface-finish requirements are suitable.
Suitable DA lengths can also be used in heavier picture-frame, mirror-frame and decorative wood assemblies where a 15GA finish nail matches the material dimensions.
| Shank | General Characteristic | Selection Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Smooth Shank | Straight shank for conventional finish-nail driving | Common trim, molding, cabinetry and finish carpentry |
| Ring Shank | Annular rings provide additional engagement with surrounding wood fibers | Selected woodworking applications requiring increased resistance to withdrawal |
KYA lists smooth and ring-shank options within the DA Series. Confirm the exact shank configuration, length and availability when ordering rather than assuming every DA size is stocked in both versions.
| Feature | DA Style | FN Style |
|---|---|---|
| Gauge | 15 Gauge | 15 Gauge |
| Typical Collation Angle | Approximately 34° | Different angled format, commonly around 25° depending on system |
| Tool System | DA-style 15GA angled finish nailer | FN-style 15GA finish nailer |
| Interchangeable? | No. Do not substitute DA and FN nails unless the tool manufacturer explicitly specifies compatibility. | |
A compatible nailer must be designed for the 15 gauge 34° DA-style fastener system. Exact nail length is also important because not every DA nailer accepts the complete 1"–2-1/2" KYA family range.
| Tool / Tool Family | Compatibility Guidance |
|---|---|
| SENCO 15GA DA Tools | SENCO identifies its 15GA DA platform as a 34° angled strip system; verify the individual tool's accepted length range |
| DEWALT DA-Style 15GA Nailers | DEWALT offers 15GA DA-style angled finish nailers; check the exact model's minimum and maximum nail length before selecting a KYA DA size |
| Metabo HPT NT65MA4 / NT1865DMAS | Metabo HPT lists these tools within its 15GA angled finish-nailer range; confirm the exact length and strip specification before substitution |
| Other 15GA Angled Nailers | Confirm gauge, DA/FN style, collation angle, head geometry, strip format and nail-length range in the tool manual |
Important for DA25: the KYA DA family includes a 25mm / 1-inch nail, but many 15GA DA nailers begin at approximately 1-1/4 inches. Confirm that the tool accepts 25mm DA nails before ordering.

They are 15 gauge angled strip finish nails designed for compatible DA-style finish nailers. The KYA DA Series uses a 34° collation angle and is available from 25mm / 1 inch to 64mm / 2-1/2 inches.
Bright finish nails are primarily suitable for dry interior and protected finish-carpentry applications such as trim, molding, baseboards, cabinetry, casings, furniture and paneling where additional corrosion protection is not required.
No. Bright and galvanized should be treated as different finish specifications. Buyers requiring zinc-based corrosion protection should order the appropriate galvanized DA nail rather than assuming the Bright version provides equivalent protection.
Bright finish should not be used as a generic recommendation for exterior or moisture-exposed trim. Select galvanized or stainless steel according to the service environment, wood treatment and project requirements.
The KYA DA Series uses a 34° angled strip format.
KYA lists DA25, DA32, DA38, DA45, DA50, DA57 and DA64, covering approximately 25–64mm / 1"–2-1/2".
KYA packaging data lists 100 nails per strip.
KYA packaging data lists 4,000 nails per box for the DA25–DA64 range.
KYA specifies an approximately 3.1mm head width.
KYA specifies a nominal 1.76mm width × 1.76mm thickness for the DA Series.
The DA Series uses a chisel point.
DA and FN are different 15 gauge angled finish-nail systems with different collation and tool geometry. DA is commonly associated with an approximately 34° format, while FN systems use a different angled configuration. They should not be treated as interchangeable unless the nailer manufacturer explicitly states otherwise.
No. The tool must accept 15GA 34° DA-style strips, and its permitted nail-length range must include the selected KYA size. Gauge alone does not establish compatibility.
No. Many 15GA DA finish nailers have a minimum fastener length around 1-1/4 inches. Check the tool manual before ordering DA25.
KYA lists smooth and ring-shank options within the broader DA Series. Confirm the selected length, finish and shank configuration when requesting a quotation.
The correct length depends on molding thickness and the required penetration into framing or backing. DA50, DA57 and DA64 may be considered for thicker profiles, but the actual assembly and nailer range should determine the final size.
Baseboard thickness and wall construction determine the required length. Medium and longer DA sizes are commonly relevant, but select the fastener according to the actual trim thickness and required substrate penetration.
Contact KYA Fasteners to confirm sample availability. Test the selected DA size with the intended nailer and actual wood assembly before placing a large-volume order.
