FAQs

What is the purpose of the bright finish?

The bright finish provides a traditional look and is suitable for applications where painting or staining is desired.

What types of wood can I use these nails with?

These nails are suitable for use with both soft and hard timber materials.

What size bag do these nails come in?

This specific variant comes in a 500g bag.

Can these nails be used outdoors?

While suitable for some outdoor uses, the lack of coating may cause rust over time. Consider using a rust inhibitor or other nails for prolonged exposure to the elements.

How do I prevent the nails from bending?

Ensure the nail is driven straight, and pre-drill pilot holes in harder woods.

Are these nails suitable for heavy-duty construction?

These nails are suitable for a wide range of joinery and construction, though may not be appropriate for all heavy-duty applications. Consider the load requirements of your project.

Troubleshooting

Nail is bending when hammered.

Try pre-drilling a pilot hole, or use a nail with a smaller diameter.

Nail head is not flush with the surface.

Use a nail set to countersink the nail head.

Store nails in a dry environment. Consider using a rust inhibitor or painting the nails if exposed to moisture.
