ASTM F1667-00

Standard Specification for Driven Fasteners: Nails, Spikes, and Staples

SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers nails, spikes, staples, and other driven fasteners, as listed in Fastener ductility information is presented in and dimensional information in Table 1.
Note—Fastener ductility information is presented in Table 2 and dimensional information in Tables 3-63.
1.2 Fasteners described in this specification are driven by hand tool, power tool, or mechanical device in single or multiple strikes and may be positioned for striking by hand, tool, or machine.
1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
