What Size Nails To Use For 3/4″ Plywood Sheathing?

When using 3/4″ plywood for sheathing, it’s important to select nails that provide both strength and stability. The recommended size is 10d nails, which are approximately 3″ long (76 mm). These nails are long enough to penetrate the plywood and anchor securely into the framing beneath, ensuring a firm attachment.
