Choose an option to view item availability.
Still made the same way as they were in 1819, these traditional square-cut steel nails are produced by Tremont, the oldest nail manufacturer in the United States. Besides being historically accurate for reproduction work and period restoration, they are superior to conventional wire nails in two ways.
First, they are near constant thickness but taper in width. When the parallel sides of the nail are aligned with the grain, the square tip shears fibers, which are then bent downwards and compressed as the nail is driven. The fibers then act like a featherboard on a table saw, preventing the nail from withdrawing. Second, because the square tip shears the fibers, there is no wedging action across the grain; this lets you nail near the end of a board with no splitting.
The decorative wrought-head nails have a black oxide finish and are ideal for rough-sawn siding, face-nailed floors, batten doors and framing.
Available in 1 lb boxes in 3 lengths. The approximate nail count per box is 190 for the 1" nails, 120 for the 1 1/2" nails, and 65 for the 2" nails.
