Mounting accessories. Nails.

In order to secure the timber in the construction and finishing of the frame house used different nails, screws, and other types of fasteners and adhesives. In this article we will talk about the nails.

Bond strength using nail depends on several factors:

- the strength of joining the nail into the wood.
- the strength of the nail at the break.
- From the friction of the nail and the board.
- From hats reliability.

Nails are different depending on the type of cap, from the legs.

Nail with a small hat. The most common nail with a small hat. Such a fixture head is flat and smooth leg.

According to the method of manufacturing the nails are shiny, rough, have galvanized nails, which do not rust in wet wood. Nails with a small cap can be manufactured plated or hot-galvanized way. Such a nail, as opposed to simply not Marano hand. It is these fasteners are used for finishing work to the hands of masters have always been clean. The length of the nails can be different, the smallest - 12 mm high - 200 mm. The longest nails are used for fastening the frame, the shorter used in the decoration. When marking nails are taken into account two values: thickness and length. For example, numbers on the packaging 50h2,5 indicate that the nail has a length of 50 millimeters and a thickness of 2.5 millimeters.

Dyugertovy nail. This very small nail head, which allows the fasteners at the inner workings of when to hide the nail driving Blind. Here, a lower bond strength than the standard nail cap.

felt nail It has a smooth and, in some cases, a profiled leg. The cross section of the nail has the shape of circle. Here bonnet and large wide and flat, so this fixture is used for soft textures. Most of these nails treated galvanized or electroplating.

jagged nails occur have a round stem, onto which the grooves. Jagged nails exposed galvanizing. The cap is usually recessed, at least - is flat. Tensile load on the traction significantly higher than that of ordinary nails. This nail length varies, from 25 to 100 millimeters.

threaded nails characterized by the fact that their legs applied sloping thread. They are used in various connections where extra strength is needed due to variable loads. For example, on a wooden floor or for attaching the inner and outer skin.

Threaded nails gear - here on one side is carved, on the other marked teeth. They are typically used in order to nail chipboard, plywood.

bell hat required for attachment of wall plates, and also metal roofing, roofing material.

anchor nail It has a special structure. Leg it round her teeth. This nail is ideal for connecting the various elements of wooden structures. Nail-head has a conical structure, which guarantees tight abutment of the nail to a tree.

In addition to these nails, there are other types that are used for specialized fasteners.

In the next article we will talk about another type of fixture that is often used in modern construction - on the screws.
