Frequently Asked Questions
What does 'd' in the size of sinker nails signify?
'd' denotes the length of a nail (including the head) by its penny size. 'd' stands for denarius, which is an ancient Roman coin that became connected with the old British penny over time. The longer the nail, the larger the penny size.
What is the difference between box nails and common nails?
- Although box nails resemble common nails, they have thinner shanks. When driven into thin pieces of wood, they are less prone to breaking.
- They lower the possibilities of wood splitting since they cause lesser wood displacement than standard nails.
How do I choose my nail size?
Generally, the nail length should be 21/2 times the thickness of the wood being nailed through. For example, use an 8-penny nail for 1-inch-thick and a 16-penny nail for 2-inch-thick surfaces.
