Bullet Head Nails Bright 50mm

Bullet head nails are the flush-finish nail for timber work where the head needs to be countersunk and covered. These 50mm nails come in a 15kg trade bucket with a bright, uncoated finish, and the small rounded head countersinks easily into the timber so the fixing can be filled and painted over. They are a staple for carpenters, builders and joiners.

How To Use Them

Drive the nail so the bullet head sinks below the surface of the timber, then fill the hole and sand it flush for a clean finish. The bright finish keeps the cost down where the nails are going to be covered, and it makes them suitable for indoor work and joinery where appearance matters. Use a nail punch to set the head below the surface for filling.

Applications

• Framing and general timber construction
• Joinery and cladding where a flush finish is wanted
• Projects where the nails are filled and painted over
• Indoor construction work

What You Need To Complete The Job

Pair the bullet head nails with the other fixings and tools on the job. Use galvanised clouts where outdoor corrosion resistance is needed, and a hammer stapler for quick sheet and insulation fixing. Browse the Roof Fixing Supplies range for more.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are bullet head nails used for?

They are used for timber work where the nail head needs to be countersunk and covered, such as joinery, framing and cladding. The small rounded head lets the nail sit below the surface for filling and painting.

Why choose a bright finish?

The bright, uncoated finish is cheaper than galvanised and is suited to work where the nails are covered by filler and paint. For outdoor exposure where rust is a risk, use galvanised nails instead.

How many nails are in a bucket?

A 15kg bucket holds approximately 3000 to 3500 nails, depending on gauge. That gives ample supply for framing and joinery jobs of a reasonable size.

How do I get a flush finish?

Drive the nail with a hammer, then use a nail punch to set the head just below the timber surface. Fill the recess with timber filler, sand it flush, and the fixing is ready to paint.
