These Forgefix Oval Lost Head Nails are versatile and ideal for use in general joinery. The nail head virtually disappears when punched below the timber surface, making them ideal for decorative type applications. The shape of the nail helps to prevent splitting of hard or brittle timber. The nails have a 'Bright' finish, which is simply the basic raw mild steel material, without any coating or finish. APPLICATION: General cross section of joinery applications. By aligning the nail with the wood grain, splitting is reduced.
