I’ve been search around for Silicon Bronze brads for my pneumatic bradder but can’t find any. The size is C1 and C Brads (16GA and 18GA) of various lengths. I can find Silicon Bronze staples in shorter lengths for shipbuilding but that’s about it. I can also buy Silicon Bronze individual nails down to 1.6mm / 14 GA and up to inch length. Any idea where to get Silicon Bronze Brads? ---
