The TIMCO Extra Large Head Clout Nails (40mm x 3.0mm) are engineered for professional builders and DIY enthusiasts seeking reliable fastening for roofing felt and plasterboard. Their defining benefit is the extra-large diameter head, which provides superior surface area for secure material retention. While they offer excellent medium-duty protection via a galvanised coating, users should note that they are designed for Service Class 2 environments and are not intended for heavy-duty structural marine or highly corrosive coastal applications.

No, these nails have a Corrosion Rating 2 and are designed for sheltered or rural environments, not high-salt coastal conditions.
These are loose nails designed for manual hammering; they are not collated for use in pneumatic nail guns.
The tub contains approximately 1,050 pieces.
They are specifically designed for roofing felt and plasterboard installations.
Yes, they comply with Eurocode 5 and Service Class 2 standards for fastening performance.
Ensure the hammer strike is level and avoid over-driving the nail flush into soft materials like felt.
Ensure you are using a pilot hole if driving into exceptionally dense or seasoned hardwood.
To ensure optimal performance, ensure you are using a standard hammer with an appropriate face size to avoid slipping. When installing, drive the nail perpendicular to the surface; do not over-drive the head, as this can compress the material too deeply and compromise its integrity. These nails are primarily compatible with timber substrates. For care, keep the 2.5kg tub sealed in a dry location when not in use to preserve the integrity of the galvanised coating. If the nails are stored in high-humidity areas, inspect them for signs of surface oxidation before use.
