  • Patent number: 4971503
    Abstract: A molded nail pack for use in an automatic nail gun that has a feeder for delivering nails in sequence into a chamber and a hammer for driving a nail in the chamber into a receiving member. The molded pack includes a plurality of nails that are supported in a spaced apart relationship by a first upper web and second lower web molded integrally with adjacent nails. In a second embodiment of the invention, the nails are connected by a vertically disposed web extending between overlapping heads of adjacent nails in the pack. Each web has a weakened section located so that a nail positioned in the gun chamber separates cleanly from the pack when struck by the gun hammer thereby preventing the gun from becoming jammed.
