21 Types of Nails (Fasteners)

1. Common Nails

Ordinary nails are suitable for common fastening tasks, such as framing and structural assembly in a building, as well as woodworking tasks. These nails work well for fastening tasks when strength is more important than aesthetics. A typical nail has a rounded head and a strong shank for support.

2. Framing Nails

Frame nails may be used for craft and framing projects, much like regular nails. These are frequently seen collated for use with frame nailers. Depending on the nailer they use, they may have round, ring, spiral, or smooth shanks as well as clipped or unclipped heads.

3. Sinking Nails

Sinker nails usually feature a checkered head to keep the hammer from slipping off the nail head. The heads are designed to drive flush with the workpiece. The shank of a sinker nail is frequently coated with vinyl to make it easier to drive and grip, although the coating does not give corrosion protection.

4. Box Nails

The design of box nails is similar to normal nails; however, the shank is smaller. With a smaller diameter, there is less chance that the nail will break the wood as you drive it. It also implies the nails don’t have the strength of ordinary nails; therefore, they aren’t suited for structural applications.

5. Deck Nails

Deck nails, like sinker nails, frequently feature a checkered head for better contact with the hammer. To reduce splitting, they may have lower diameter shafts. The shanks are frequently adorned with rings or a spiral flute to aid in the retention of the nail. Deck nails are corrosion-resistant, allowing them to be used outside and with treated boards.

6. Roofing Nails

Asphalt shingles, roof felt, and nails secure roof decking or sheathing. Because they are exposed to the weather, they may be constructed of aluminum or have a corrosion-resistant coating. Some have a weather-resistant seal created by a gasket under the head. Roofing nails have bigger heads for their shank diameter, and ring or spiraling shanks are stronger for their length.

7. Masonry Nails

Masonry nails secure wood to brick, mortar, concrete block, or uncured concrete. They’re built of hardened steel so that they can be driven into these materials. Some are flattened and singularized. Extruded masonry nails are often short and thick, with round, fluted, or grooved shanks. As the nail is pushed, the flutes rotate it, making driving simpler.

8. Siding Nails

Siding nails hold wood and fiber cement siding together. They are built of corrosion-resistant material or have a corrosion-resistant coating since they are exposed to the environment. Siding nails may have tiny heads to hide them after installation and ringed or spiral shanks to increase gripping force.

9. Duplex Nails

This type of nail, often known as double-headed nails, is intended for use in temporary constructions such as scaffolding. When driven into a substance, the higher head stays accessible for simple removal once the building activity is over.

10. Joist Hanger Nails

Joist hanger nails are used to secure joist hangers to wooden studs. These nails have a strong shank and are frequently hot-dipped galvanized for external usage and use with treated timber.

11. Pole Barn Nails

Pole barn nails are used in building projects that employ wood poles put in the ground to form the structure’s foundation. Pole barn nails include ring shanks for added gripping power and a corrosion-resistant coating suitable with pressure-treated wood.

12. Connectors Nails

A smooth-shanked hot-dipped galvanized connection nail. Connector nails secure structural hardware like framing angles and rafter ties.

13. Cap Nails

To fasten house wrap, felt, or foam insulation and avoid tear-out, cap nails include a plastic cover immediately under the nail head. The spiral shank of the nails keeps the fastening in place.

14. Finish Nails

Finishing nails are used in fine woodwork and cabinetry and perform well for molding. A narrow diameter shaft (typically 16- to 10-gauge) lowers the possibility of the workpiece separating. Finish nails feature tiny heads that can be driven flat to the workpiece or countersunk (driven below the surface using a nail set) to hide them.

15. Trim Nails

Trim nails are intended for usage on the outside of houses. They protect home gutters, fascia and soffit boards, and outside trim.

16. Brad Nails

Brad nails are miniaturized counterparts of finish nails. They lack the gripping power of finish nails but are useful for woodworking, cabinetry, and craft work. Brad nails, like finish nails, have heads that are slightly bigger than the diameter of the shaft to allow for countersinking.

17. Pin Nails

Pin nails are intended for use with nailers. These are incredibly tiny (23 gauge) and have no head. They don’t have much-holding strength, but they’re discreet and may be used in conjunction with glue to fix thin veneer and small molding and trim pieces.

18. Drywall Nails

Drywall nails feature big, spherical heads that can be dimpled or countersunk. These characteristics enable them to be readily pushed beneath the surface of the wallboard for hiding while minimizing drywall paper ripping. Long diamond-shaped tips are also used to prevent wall studs from separating. To aid their retention, drywall nails with smooth or ringed shanks are available.

19. Flooring Nails

Flooring nails include nails designed for pneumatic nailers to install certain types of wood flooring, as well as small spiral nails used to fix flooring trim and nails with longer, ringed shanks used to install underlayment or subflooring.

20. Panel Board Nails

Panel board nails secure wall panels to studs or furring and feature tiny, circular heads. Some include ring shanks for strength, frequently available in various colors to match the panels you’re installing.

21. Furniture Nails

Furniture nails, also known as upholstery nails, are little nails with big, ornamental heads. Their main use is to hold upholstery fabric to a timber frame.
