FAQs

What is sheradising?

Sheradising is a thermal diffusion process that creates a protective zinc/iron alloy coating on the pins, providing excellent corrosion resistance.

What types of projects are these pins best for?

These pins are ideal for lightweight and decorative tasks, such as attaching trim, moldings, and in craft projects.

Can I use these pins outdoors?

The sheradised finish provides some corrosion resistance, making them suitable for some outdoor use. However, prolonged exposure to the elements may eventually affect the pins.

How do I prevent the wood from splitting when using these pins?

Pre-drilling pilot holes is recommended, especially in hardwoods. Also, gently tap the pin in to reduce the chance of splitting.

What is the length of these panel pins?

These panel pins are 40mm in length.

How are these panel pins sold?

They are sold in 500g bags.

Troubleshooting

Pin bending during insertion

Use a nail punch to set the pin flush and avoid bending. If using in hard wood, pre-drill a pilot hole.

Splitting the wood

Pre-drill pilot holes in harder timbers or use a smaller gauge pin.
