Unifix Brass Panel Pins - 30 X 1.60mm - 500G Pack

These pins are best suited for softwoods and hardwoods. For very hard woods or very thin materials, pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended.

Brass offers good corrosion resistance, making them suitable for many outdoor applications where moisture is a factor. However, for prolonged heavy exposure to the elements, consider specialized outdoor fasteners.

The exact number can vary slightly due to manufacturing tolerances, but a 500g pack of 30 x 1.60mm pins typically contains several hundred pins.

They are ideal for general woodworking, furniture assembly, securing back panels, model making, and various craft projects where a small, durable fastener is needed.

No, standard woodworking tools such as a hammer and a block or nail set are sufficient for inserting these panel pins.

Yes, the pins are made from solid brass, providing durability and strength for their intended applications.

Ensure you are using a standard hammer and striking the pin squarely. For harder woods, consider pre-drilling a pilot hole slightly smaller than the pin's diameter.

Verify the wood is suitable for the pin's size. For very soft woods, a pilot hole may sometimes reduce holding power. Ensure the pin is driven fully into the material.

Store pins in a dry, sealed container. If tarnishing occurs, gently clean with a soft cloth. Brass naturally develops a patina over time, which is a characteristic of the material.
