ABSTRACT:
In a strip for holding fastening elements, such as nails and the like, as they are fed into a setting device for insertion into a target material, break-off locations are provided in the strip to separate used portions of the strip from portions still containing fastening elements. The holder strip is an elongated flat tape or belt-like member. The fastening elements are secured within holes spaced apart in the elongated direction of the strip. The fastening elements have transversely extending heads which punch out parts of the strip as the elements are driven into the target material. Preferably, the break-off locations are in the form of notches extending inwardly from the longitudinal sides of the strip into the region punched out by the inserted elements. As a result, when a fastening element punches through the strip where break-off locations are present, at least a portion of the strip from which the fastening elements have been driven is separated from the remainder of the strip.
