Why Choose Our Large Flat Head Clout Nails?
- Maximum Clamping Area: The head diameter is typically 3 times the size of the shank, providing superior “hold-down” power for flexible materials.
- 20+ Year Rust Resistance: Our Hot-Dipped Galvanized (HDG) clout nails feature a zinc coating of ≥50g/m², ideal for harsh coastal or high-moisture environments.
- Optional Ring Shank: For permanent fixings, we offer ring shank clout nails which provide 50-70% higher withdrawal resistance than smooth shanks.
- Precision Manufacturing: With a ±0.05mm tolerance on shank diameter, these nails are compatible with both manual hammers and specialized roofing tools.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: When should I use Copper Clout Nails instead of Steel?
A: Copper clout nails are essential for natural slate roofing as they are 100% corrosion-proof and will not react with the minerals in the stone, unlike standard steel.
Q2: What is the difference between clout nails and felt nails?
A: They are essentially the same. “Felt nails” is a common term used in the UK for shorter clout nails (usually 13mm-20mm) used for roofing felt.
Q3: How many clout nails are in a 25kg carton?
A: For a standard 30mm x 3.0mm nail, there are approximately 400-450 pieces per kg, totaling over 10,000 nails per carton.
