STANDARD
A steel cut nail with a dark, powder gray finish which can be clinched; not a hardened nail. HARDENED
A nail which has been heat-treated and tempered for special hardness. HOT-DIPPED GALVANIZED
A zinc-coated nail, hot-dipped in molten zinc, to resist rusting. Can usually be clinched. These are not hardened nails. WHEN SHOULD I USE GALVANIZED NAILS?
A galvanized nail should be used when you do not want the nail to rust. All outdoor applications usually require galvanized nails. If the nail is not galvanized, it will rust if exposed to the elements. However, the 'streaking' effect achieved with ungalvanized nails outside is sometimes preferred to the matte silver color of the galvanized nail. NOT SURE WHAT NAIL YOU NEED?
In addition to the 1 lb, 5 lb and 50 lb quantities, we sell all nails and sizes (except galvanized) in smaller 4oz (1/4 lb) quantities. As far as we know, we are the only company to offer 20 different nail types in this quantity. Our nails are grouped below according to their most common uses. Use the links at the top of the page for information on uses and sizes available. (# = LB) |
