Flat Head Spikes

Flat head spikes, also known as cut nails, are ideal for general concrete anchoring and roofing applications, as well as fastening insulations and single-ply membranes to structural concrete roof decks. They are often preferred over common nails because their rectangular shape allows them to resist pulling out of the wood, making them more secure.

Features

Flat head spikes have a rectangular-shaped head that is wider and flatter than the heads of common nails.
They have a strong holding power and are ideal for use in framing and flooring applications.
They offer high resistance to pull-outs.
Flat head spikes can cater to a wide range of applications, from small finishing nails to heavy-duty spikes used in construction.
They are available in 8, 10 and 12-inch models to accommodate different applications and wood thicknesses.
These flat head spikes are made of steel to handle structural rigidity and handle tough environmental conditions.
