Product Information

Full details

The Unifix Bright Round Lost Head Nails are designed for professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts who require reliable fasteners for framing, roofing, and general carpentry projects. These 65mm nails provide a strong, secure hold due to their specialized head design, which allows for a clean, flush finish in wood applications; however, because they lack a protective coating, they are best suited for indoor use where moisture exposure is minimal to avoid rust.

FAQs

Can I use these nails outdoors?

No, these are bright steel nails and lack protective galvanization, meaning they will rust quickly if exposed to weather.

What is the primary benefit of a 'lost head' nail?

The head is smaller than a standard nail, allowing it to be punched below the surface of the timber for a clean, invisible finish.

How many nails are in each 1kg bag?

While the exact count varies by manufacturing batch, these are sold by total weight (5kg total), ensuring you have plenty for large framing jobs.

Do I need to use glue with these nails?

While not strictly required, using wood glue in joints combined with these nails creates a much stronger, permanent bond.

Are these compatible with a nail gun?

Yes, provided the nail gun supports 3.35mm gauge round-head nails and has a magazine capable of handling 65mm length.

Troubleshooting

Nail bends while being driven into hardwood

Drill a small pilot hole that is slightly smaller than the diameter of the nail shank.

Nail head leaves a visible depression that is hard to fill

Ensure you are using a nail punch of the correct size to minimize the footprint left in the timber.

Nails are showing signs of surface oxidation

Ensure storage containers are sealed tightly and consider using a desiccant pack in your toolbox.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lost head design enables a clean, flush finish
  • Generous bulk packaging for heavy usage
  • Sturdy 3.35mm thickness resists bending during installation
  • Suitable for a wide range of woodworking tasks

Cons

  • Not intended for outdoor or high-moisture environments
  • Bright finish requires protection to prevent oxidation
  • Requires professional-grade hammering precision to avoid surface damage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, ensure the nail is driven straight into the wood grain. To achieve the 'lost' look, use a nail punch once the head is close to the surface to drive it exactly 1-2mm below the wood line.

Compatibility: These nails are compatible with all standard claw hammers and pneumatic nail guns that accept 3.35mm gauge round head fasteners.

Care: As these are 'Bright' steel nails, they possess no galvanized or anti-corrosive coating. Store them in a cool, dry place inside their original plastic bags. If they are exposed to humidity, they will develop surface rust rapidly. If using in humid internal areas, consider applying a light coat of machine oil or wood stain over the entry hole after filling.
