The Unifix galvanised clout nails are made of steel with a galvanised coating for rust resistance.
Each nail measures 75mm in length and has a diameter of 3.75mm.
Each convenient tub contains 2.5kg of nails.
Yes, the galvanised coating provides excellent rust resistance, making them suitable for outdoor and exposed applications like roofing and fencing.
Yes, they are designed for use with standard tools, which can include pneumatic nail guns, provided the tool is set up for this nail size and type.
Store the tubs in a dry, protected area to maintain the quality of the galvanised finish and prevent premature corrosion.
One pack contains four 2.5kg tubs, totaling 10kg of nails.
Ensure you are using a suitable hammer and striking directly. If using a nail gun, check pressure settings and ensure the correct gauge is selected.
While galvanised, prolonged exposure to harsh, wet conditions can eventually lead to surface rust. Ensure stored nails are kept dry. Minor surface rust typically does not compromise structural integrity.
Consider pre-drilling a pilot hole slightly smaller than the nail diameter, especially in very dense hardwoods, to ease insertion and prevent bending.
Setup: These nails require no special setup. They are ready for immediate use with standard hammers or nail guns equipped to handle their size.
Compatibility: Compatible with most common construction materials such as wood, timber, and roofing membranes. They are designed to work with standard hammering tools. Ensure your tool is appropriate for the nail size.
Care: Store the tubs in a dry environment to maintain the integrity of the galvanised coating. Avoid prolonged exposure to highly acidic or alkaline substances, which can degrade the protective layer over time. Clean any dirt or debris from the nails before use if stored for extended periods.
