Cladding battens seem to be getting smaller and smaller and this is causing some issues when coming to fixing the cladding boards.
What issues are they?
A typical scenario is when 38mm battens are used, no longer can 51mm Paslode nails be used without hitting the wall behind which often pushes the cladding off leaving it all wobbly, or where an infill panel is being made for the brickwork. So the normal solution? Use 40mm loose ring shank nails. What kind of solution is that? Who uses a hammer these days?
