FAQs
What is the diameter of the decorative head?
The decorative head measures 10.5mm in diameter.
How long is the nail shaft?
The nail shaft is 16mm long.
Can these be used outdoors?
While these are designed for furniture, they are intended primarily for indoor use. Outdoor use may lead to oxidation of the metal finish.
How many pins are included?
There are 100 pins included in each pack.
Do I need special tools to install them?
A standard upholstery hammer or a rubber mallet is recommended for best results.
Troubleshooting
Nail bends during installation
Ensure you are using a soft-faced mallet and driving the nail straight; if the wood is very hard, pre-drill a tiny hole first.
Decorative finish is scratching
Switch to a rubber mallet and ensure the hammer face is clean and free of debris or grit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install these tacks effectively, identify the placement on your furniture frame. If the frame is made of high-density hardwood, consider using a pilot hole or a small nail to guide the placement, preventing the pin from bending. For maintenance, simply wipe the bronze heads with a dry microfiber cloth to remove dust. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, as they may degrade the antique finish over time. Store the remaining pins in a dry location to prevent potential oxidation or corrosion of the metal shafts.
