Product Information

Full details

The Timco Polymer Headed Nails (PN65BR) are designed for construction professionals and DIY enthusiasts needing durable, weather-resistant fixings for exterior projects. Their key benefit is the A4 stainless steel construction with a polymer head, offering excellent impact and UV resistance for soffits, fascias, and roofline trims. A potential caveat is that the mahogany colour may not match all wood finishes precisely, requiring careful selection.

FAQs

What is A4 stainless steel?

A4 stainless steel, also known as 316 grade, contains molybdenum which provides superior resistance to corrosion and pitting compared to lower grades, making it ideal for marine or harsh environments.

Can these nails be used for interior projects?

Yes, they can be used for interior projects, but their primary design benefits (UV and impact resistance for exterior use) may be unnecessary indoors. The mahogany colour might also not suit all interior aesthetics.

How do I choose the right nail length?

Select a nail length that penetrates the primary substrate (e.g., timber) by at least 25-30mm for a secure fixing, considering the thickness of any overlay materials.

Are the polymer heads paintable?

The polymer heads are typically designed to match wood finishes and may not be easily paintable with standard paints. Adhesion can be poor unless specific primers are used.

What is the difference between PN65BR and PN50BR?

The '65' in PN65BR refers to the 65mm length, while the '50' in PN50BR refers to its 50mm length. Both are mahogany-coloured, polymer-headed A4 stainless steel nails from Timco.

Will these rust if used near the sea?

A4 (316) stainless steel offers excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion, making these nails highly suitable for coastal applications.

Troubleshooting

Nail head is damaged during fixing.

Reduce the air pressure on pneumatic nailers or use a lighter hammer blow. Ensure the nail is entering the material at a straight angle.

Nails are not holding securely.

Verify that the nail length is appropriate for the combined thickness of the materials being joined. Ensure the substrate (e.g., timber) is sound and not rotten.

Discoloration around the nail after extended exposure.

While rare with A4 stainless steel, ensure no reactive materials are in contact. Clean surrounding surfaces regularly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent corrosion resistance due to A4 stainless steel.
  • Durable polymer head resists impact and UV damage.
  • Aesthetically pleasing mahogany colour for exterior use.
  • Suitable for demanding outdoor applications like rooflines.
  • Reliable performance in various weather conditions.

Cons

  • Mahogany colour may not be a perfect match for all wood tones.
  • Limited to 65mm length, may not be suitable for thicker materials.
  • Polymer head might be susceptible to damage from extremely high-impact tools.
  • Only available in packs of 100, potentially leading to over-purchasing for small jobs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These nails are designed for use with standard hammer tackers or pneumatic nail guns capable of firing 3.2mm shank diameter nails. Ensure your tool is set to the appropriate pressure to drive the nail flush without damaging the polymer head.

Compatibility: Compatible with most common construction timbers and PVC/composite roofline materials. The A4 stainless steel makes them suitable for coastal environments and areas prone to high moisture.

Care: No specific care is required for the nails themselves. However, for optimal longevity of the installation, ensure the surrounding materials are properly treated and maintained. Store nails in a dry place to prevent premature corrosion, though the A4 grade offers significant protection.
