Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the purpose of the rectangular shank?

The rectangular shank provides a stronger grip and enhances the nail's holding power, particularly in flooring applications.

What is the bright finish?

The bright finish refers to the raw mild steel material without any coating or finish.

Can I use these nails outdoors?

These nails are best suited for indoor applications. While they can be used outdoors, their raw steel nature may make them prone to rust and corrosion if exposed to the elements.

What size nails should I use?

These are 65mm nails, ideal for most floorboard installations. However, nail size depends on the thickness of the floorboards and the type of joists being used.

How many nails are in a 500g bag?

The number of nails per bag will vary depending on the exact weight of each individual nail. They are sold by weight, not piece count.

Are these nails coated?

No, these nails do not have any coating. They are made of raw mild steel.

What tools do I need to install these nails?

You'll need a hammer, safety glasses, and optionally, a nail set or pre-drilling tools.

Troubleshooting

Nail bending during installation.

Pre-drill pilot holes, especially in hardwoods, or use a nail set to drive the nail straight.

Nails not holding securely.

Ensure the nail is driven in straight and flush with the surface. If necessary, use longer nails or adjust the nailing angle for better grip.

The rectangular shank design enhances grip and stability.

Cons

The bright finish is not coated, so it may be susceptible to rust in certain conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure you have the necessary tools, including a hammer and safety glasses. Position the floorboards correctly before nailing.
Compatibility: These nails are compatible with most types of wood used for flooring. They may not be suitable for very dense hardwoods without pre-drilling.
Care: Store nails in a dry place to prevent rust. If nails are exposed to moisture, consider using a rust inhibitor or replacing them.
