Troubleshooting
Nail bending during hammering
Ensure you are using a sturdy hammer and striking the nail head squarely. For harder woods or tougher applications, consider using a thicker gauge nail if appropriate for your project.
Nails rusting
These nails are recommended for internal use. Store them in a dry place and ensure the project where they are used is not exposed to moisture or high humidity.
