FAQs
Can these nails be used for marine environments?
Copper has excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for many outdoor applications, though exposure to harsh salt spray may accelerate surface patina.
Are these nails compatible with all nail guns?
These nails are designed to be compatible with most standard nail guns that accept 38mm length fasteners with a 3.35mm gauge, but always check your tool's specifications.
Will these nails rust over time?
No, copper does not rust like ferrous steel. Instead, it will gradually develop a natural patina or greenish finish when exposed to the elements.
How many nails are in a 1Kg bag?
The quantity varies based on the specific weight of individual nails, but a 1Kg bag provides a substantial supply for typical residential roofing or cladding repair projects.
Is pre-drilling necessary?
Pre-drilling is recommended when working with hardwoods or near the edges of boards to prevent the timber from splitting.
Troubleshooting
Nails bending during installation
Ensure the nail is being driven straight and check that the timber is not too dense; consider pre-drilling pilot holes.
Nail head sitting proud of the surface
Adjust the depth setting on your pneumatic nail gun or use a nail punch if installing by hand to ensure a flush finish.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent resistance to environmental corrosion
- Provides superior long-term holding power
- Versatile for use in both roofing and exterior cladding
- Suitable for both manual and power-assisted installation
Cons
- Soft metal nature of copper may require careful alignment
- Not suitable for heavy structural load-bearing timber joints
- Specific 38mm length may not be sufficient for very thick insulation boards
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure your cladding material is pre-drilled if you are working with extremely dense or brittle timber to prevent splitting. When using a hammer, strike squarely to avoid damaging the nail head. If using a nail gun, select the correct nail strip feed to match the 3.35mm gauge. Store these nails in a dry area to maintain the integrity of the packaging, though the nails themselves are inherently rust-resistant. No special maintenance is required once installed, as they are designed to weather naturally over time.
