Q195 Big Head 2.5X11 Polish Common Nail

 
Common nails, commonly referred to as common nails or construction nails, are a type of fastener widely used in various building and woodworking projects. They are characterized by a smooth shank and a flat, broad head, which provides a larger surface area to apply force during hammering and helps to hold materials securely in place. The sharp point at the tip allows for easy penetration into wood and other materials.

These nails are typically made from steel and may be coated with materials such as zinc to enhance their resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. Ordinary nails come in a range of sizes, measured in pennies (denoted by the symbol 'd'), to accommodate different thicknesses of materials and the requirements of specific tasks.

Due to their simplicity and effectiveness, ordinary nails are a staple in construction sites, used for framing, attaching sheathing, and general carpentry work. They are favored for their strength and durability, ensuring that structures and wooden assemblies remain firmly connected over time.
