Yes, they make a nail gun for hardi-plank.
To properly install Hardy plank siding on your home, follow these steps: Prepare the surface by removing old siding and ensuring it is clean and smooth. Measure and cut the Hardy plank to fit the dimensions of your home. Install flashing and trim around windows, doors, and corners. Nail the Hardy plank to the wall, leaving a small gap for expansion. Use a level to ensure the planks are straight and secure them with nails or screws. Caulk any gaps or joints to prevent water infiltration. Paint or seal the siding to protect it from the elements. It is recommended to follow the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific guidance.
There is very little to do to maintain Hardy Plank siding. Just spray if off if you desire. There is nothing else that needs to be done.
ones called a nail the others called a screw. Also you hammer in a nail but screw in a screw. Hope this answer helps. :)
A screw holds better than a nail.
Screw A nail can pull out, a screw needs a screwdriver to undo
Which has a greater input force a nail or a screw
a screw works better cues it has threads and a nail is just goes straight in the board. The nail is stronger but the screw holds tighter.
A nail has a smooth straight shaft and a flat head that requires a hammer to pound the nail in. A screw has rivets on the shaft and the head has a shape to it so a screwdriver is needed to screw in the screw.
Generally a lighter color is better because it absorbs less heat so you home will stay cooler. Hardy Plank is low to no maintenance siding.
A screw is a fastener that is similar to a nail, but it has threads.
I'm pretty sure you can't screw a NAIL. A screw maybe...
A screw will have more holding force. As far as shear force, a screw is made from harder material and will break where a nail will bend.
