Galvanised Nails (Loose)

These are galvanised nails, loose and ready for use in any number of site tasks. Built to resist rust, they're ideal for outdoor projects like fencing, decking, or roofing where longevity matters. After days of exposure to the elements, these nails hold firm, providing a durable solution for your fixings.

What Are Galvanised Nails Used For?

• Fixing fence panels and posts securely, even in damp conditions where untreated nails might fail.
• Attaching roofing felt or shingles, ensuring a weatherproof finish that stands up to the elements.
• Constructing decking frameworks, providing a rust-resistant solution that supports the structure for years.
• General carpentry work outdoors where moisture exposure is a concern, preventing nail corrosion over time.

Who Uses Galvanised Nails?

• Builders and carpenters working on outdoor structures like pergolas, sheds, and garden furniture.
• Roofers needing reliable fastenings that withstand rain and wind exposure.
• Landscapers securing features and enclosures in gardens and outdoor spaces.

Choosing the Right Galvanised Nails

Consider these factors to select the best galvanised nails for your project:

1. Nail Length

Choose longer nails (e.g., 75mm or more) for thicker materials like fence posts, while shorter nails (30-50mm) are better for thinner boards or roof shingles.

2. Shank Type

Ring shank nails provide extra grip in applications where nails might be subject to movement or stress, such as decking or flooring.

3. Coating Thickness

For high-exposure areas, thicker galvanisation is crucial to prevent rust over time, ensuring the longevity of your work.
