Description
Description
Bright Cut Clasp Nails are traditional, rectangular-section nails designed for high holding power in timber. The wedge-shaped shank bites across the grain to resist pull-out, making them ideal for fixing floorboards, skirting, door linings, fencing rails, pallets, and general first-fix carpentry. The bright (uncoated) finish is suited to internal applications or locations protected from moisture.
Key Features & Benefits
- High Withdrawal Resistance: Rectangular cut shank grips across the grain for a secure hold.
- Clean Drive & Clamping: Broad head offers strong clamping of timber components.
- Traditional Fixing: Favoured for flooring, skirting, linings, and general carpentry.
- Bright Steel: Ready to prime/paint; ideal where a galvanised finish is not required.
- Trade Packs: Supplied in convenient 1kg bags for site and workshop use.

Suitable Applications
- Fixing floorboards and subfloors to joists

- Timber framing, fencing rails, pallets and crates
- General first-fix carpentry and joinery
Instructions for Use
- Select a nail length that provides 2–3× the thickness of the top piece in penetration into the substrate.
- Orient the nail’s narrow edge with the timber grain to minimise splitting, especially near edges.
- For dense or hardwoods, pre-drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the nail thickness.
Limitations & Precautions
- Bright finish is not corrosion-resistant; not suitable for external or damp environments.
- Wear appropriate PPE and take care when nailing near edges to avoid splitting.
Cut Clasp Nails – Bright – 1kg Bags deliver strong, traditional fixings with excellent holding power in timber, perfect for flooring, skirting, and general first-fix carpentry where a galvanised finish is not required.
