GCN0 Concrete Nailer Fasteners and Accessories Spiral Knurl Gas Pins GDPSK gas pins are designed for attaching plywood and OSB to cold-formed steel studs. The spiral knurl provides a positive lock and resists back out. Installed with the GCN0 concrete nailer or GCN-MEP (with magazine) concrete nailers, the GDPSK-8 gas pin provided faster installation and set up times, which contributes to lower labor costs. The hardened pins quickly and cleanly pierce the cold-form steel and leave the pin head flush with the wood fixture. The " length pin can be used for ½" ¾" thick plywood, and 22 gauge steel.
