FAQs

What are sheradised panel pins?

Sheradising is a heat treatment process that diffuses zinc into the steel, providing a layer of corrosion protection.

What materials can these panel pins be used with?

These panel pins are suitable for use with wood, plywood, and certain plastics. Always test on a small section.

How do I choose the right size of panel pin?

Select a pin length that is at least twice the thickness of the material being fastened. This provides sufficient grip.

Can I use these panel pins outdoors?

While the sheradised finish provides some corrosion resistance, prolonged exposure to the elements may still cause some degradation. Consider using stainless steel pins for outdoor projects.

How do I remove a panel pin?

Use a claw hammer or pliers to gently lever or pull the pin out. Be careful not to damage the surrounding material.

What if the panel pin head breaks off?

Try to remove the remaining portion of the pin using pliers or a small pry bar. If it is flush with the surface, you may need to drill a small hole next to it and insert a new pin, or fill the hole.

Where can I buy ForgeFix Panel Pins?

They are available at most hardware stores and online retailers.

Troubleshooting

Pin bending when hammering.

Use a pilot hole, or consider a different type of pin or fastener for harder materials.

Pin not holding securely.

Ensure the pin length is sufficient for the materials and consider using more pins or a different fastening method.

Panel pins are corroded.

Store unused pins in a dry location and replace corroded pins with new ones.
