The Fort Fasteners Bronze Upholstery Tacks are designed for DIY enthusiasts and furniture restorers looking to add a professional, vintage aesthetic to their projects. These 10.5mm decorative pins provide both secure fastening and an elegant antique finish, making them ideal for headboards, ottomans, and chair reupholstery; however, users should note that they require careful manual installation to prevent damage to the decorative finish.

The decorative head measures 10.5mm in diameter.
The nail shaft is 16mm long.
While these are designed for furniture, they are intended primarily for indoor use. Outdoor use may lead to oxidation of the metal finish.
There are 100 pins included in each pack.
A standard upholstery hammer or a rubber mallet is recommended for best results.
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.
Switch to a rubber mallet and ensure the hammer face is clean and free of debris or grit.
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.
