CLOUT NAILS GALVANISED

Clout nails, also known as roofing nails or felt nails, are short, thick nails with a large, flat head, specifically designed to prevent materials from being pulled through when fixed to timber. They are commonly used for applications requiring a wide load distribution and resistance to corrosion. 

Common Applications
Clout nails are primarily used for fixing thin or soft sheet materials to wood frames. 
Roofing sheets and felt: The wide head provides excellent holding power, securing materials like roofing felt, shingles, and slates, and preventing tears, especially in high-wind or harsh weather conditions.
Sheet metal: They are ideal for connecting external sheet metal, such as flashings or brackets, to timber because the large head prevents pull-through.
Fencing and Trellis: Clout nails are used for fixing timber fence palings and garden trellis to posts.
Insulation and boards: The broad head helps to evenly distribute the holding force when securing materials like plasterboard, ceiling boards, or insulation, minimizing damage.
Signage: Builders and sign writers use them for attaching signs and clips to timber posts or frames.
