Description
Description
Bright Oval Nails are traditional oval-shank nails designed to minimise timber splitting while delivering strong holding power—ideal for interior joinery and finish carpentry. The oval cross-section should be aligned with the grain during driving to reduce the risk of cracks near edges. The bright (uncoated) finish suits dry, internal applications where galvanising is not required.
Key Features & Benefits
- Oval Shank: Reduced splitting when driven with the thin edge parallel to the grain.
- High Holding Power: Tapered profile and generous length options for secure fixes.
- Neat Finish: Small head can be set with a nail punch and filled for discreet appearance.
- Trade Packs: Supplied in 1kg bags with clear approximate piece counts.
- Versatile Use: Suitable for skirtings, architraves, casings, floorboards and general interior joinery.

- Type: Oval nails
- Material: Low carbon steel
- Finish: Bright (uncoated)
- Pack Size: 1kg bags

Instructions for Use
- Orient the nail’s thin edge with the grain to minimise splitting, especially near edges/end-grain.
- Choose a length providing 2–3× penetration into the substrate.
- Drive nails square; set heads slightly below the surface with a nail punch and fill as required.
Limitations & Precautions
- Bright finish is not corrosion-resistant—use galvanised or stainless nails for damp or external environments.
- Wear appropriate PPE; pre-drill pilot holes in dense hardwoods if needed.
Oval Nails – Bright – 1kg Bags provide strong, discreet interior fixings with a shank profile that helps prevent timber splitting—ideal for refined joinery and second-fix work.
