Screw nails combine the ease of hammer driving with the superior holding power of a thread. They rotate during penetration to grip the wood fibers tightly, minimizing wood splitting and ensuring long-term resistance to loosening under vibration.
Hot-dipped galvanization deposits a thick, corrosion-resistant zinc layer on the surface of the nail. This makes it ideal for outdoor applications and construction using treated lumber, protecting the nail against rust and weathering.
Galvanized steel nails are recommended for any structural projects exposed to atmospheric moisture or high humidity, such as roof framing, exterior siding, fencing, and decking, where rust could compromise safety.
U nails (also known as fence staples) are designed with a double-pointed, U-shaped structure to secure wire mesh, barbed wire, field fences, and tension wires securely to wooden posts and frames.
Framing nails are heavy-duty nails designed with thicker shanks to handle significant shear forces in structural timber framing. They are available in various styles, including smooth, ring-shank, or screw-shank designs, depending on the required grip strength.
Tack nails are lightweight, short fasteners with sharp points and relatively large heads. They are commonly used in upholstery, carpet installations, shoemaking, and securing thin materials to wooden bases.
