Product Information

Full details

The Timco Clout Nails (50 x 2.65mm) are engineered for professional roofers, contractors, and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable solution for securing roofing felt, slate, and shingles. These nails offer a key benefit of a large-diameter head for increased holding power and medium-duty rust protection, though users should note they are specifically designed for service class 2 environments rather than high-salinity or coastal areas. This 50-piece pack provides a balance of precision, durability, and compliance with Eurocode 5 standards for your construction and repair needs.

FAQs

What is the length of these nails?

These nails are 50mm in length.

Can I use these near the ocean?

No, these are rated for Service Class 2 (sheltered/damp) and do not offer the high-level salt-spray protection required for coastal environments.

How many nails come in a pack?

Each pack contains 50 individual nails.

Are these nails threaded?

These are standard clout nails featuring a smooth shank, which is ideal for securing sheet materials.

What standard do these nails meet?

They conform to Eurocode 5 and service class 2 standards.

Troubleshooting

Nails bending during installation

Ensure you are using a hammer of appropriate weight and striking the nail head directly. If the timber is hardwood, try pre-drilling a small pilot hole.

Nail pulling through the roofing material

The nail head may have been driven too deep. Ensure the nail is flush with the surface but not countersunk into the felt.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Large head design prevents material pull-through
  • Reliable rust resistance for sheltered outdoor use
  • Meets Eurocode 5 building standards
  • Appropriate length for standard roofing felt applications
  • Durable construction ensures consistent driving

Cons

  • Not suitable for extreme coastal or highly corrosive environments
  • Limited pack size may require multiple purchases for large roofs
  • Not intended for heavy structural load-bearing connections

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, ensure the timber substrate is sound and free from excessive rot before driving the nails. These nails are compatible with softwood and standard construction-grade lumber. When installing in damp-prone areas, consider pre-drilling if the timber is particularly hard to prevent splitting. Since these nails are designed for Service Class 2, they should be kept in a dry storage area in their original packaging until use to maintain their anti-corrosion coating. If the nails are exposed to mud or debris during a project, wipe them clean before driving to ensure a smooth entry into the substrate.
