Nails are the simplest, but, oddly enough, the most reliable type of fastener. They have been used by mankind for many thousands of years, and the fact that they have survived to our times only speaks of the significance of these small, but very important and irreplaceable details. Today, a huge variety of different types of nails are made, and all of them are designed for use in certain situations.
Mainly nails are used in construction and in the assembly of various equipment. They are both very long and thick, and too thin and short. There is nothing to say about the variety of rods and hats. The most common are construction nails, slate nails, self-tapping nails. Screw, roofing, roofing and liquid nails are also widely used. Properly selected fasteners make the structure very strong and durable, but the wrong part completely violates strength. That is why you should carefully select not only the type or size of the nail, but even its hat.
All nails are made on special equipment from hard steel wire. Machinecuts the wire, on the one hand, sharpening it, and on the other, flattens it, forming a hat. Screw nails are made from thermally untreated wire. These fasteners are used for strong and durable fastening of a wide variety of building structures, as well as in the assembly of various equipment. When fixing floors, wooden containers, euro pallets, screw nails will help out a lot. They are also used when fastening flexible structures.
During construction work, such nails are practically indispensable, especially they play an important role in fixing the roof. Screw nails are ideal for fastening a structure with a rigid interface of parts or if the structure is subject to vibration and dynamic loads. An ordinary construction nail can’t do it, but a screw nail is just right.
Compared to smooth nails, such as construction nails, screw nails or knurled nails win out a lot, as they have many advantages. It is very easy to fasten wood with a screw nail, because it practically does not damage its integrity and safety, gently screwing into the board. Smooth nails often split wood, while screw nails go in easily and hold wood very firmly.
Many specialists have found from their own experience that screw nails fasten parts much better, and such fastening is more durable than smooth fastening. Fasteners come out five times stronger. If necessary, screw nails can be purchased withhidden hats, this will further increase the strength.
Twisted or screw nails are delivered to specialist shops in corrugated cardboard boxes. Depending on the packaging, the weight of one box can be from 12 to 20 kilograms, this is also affected by the type and size of fasteners. All nails of the same type and size are packed in a box, so there can be no mixed types.
