Galvanised Clout Nails
Clout Nails
🧲 Galvanisation dramatically extends nail lifespan
Clout nails like these are coated in zinc, which forms a protective barrier against moisture. In outdoor structures such as polytunnels, galvanisation can extend nail life by 5–10× compared to untreated steel, especially in damp or coastal UK environments.
🔩 The 2.65mm x 50mm size is a sweet spot for polytunnel work
This specific size offers a balance of shear strength and ease of driving. It’s commonly used for fixing timber battens, securing polythene sheeting, and attaching accessory fittings without tearing the cover.
🛠️ They’re not just for polytunnels
Despite being listed under polytunnel accessories, clout nails are widely used in:
-
Roofing felt installation
-
General carpentry
-
Outdoor timber projects Their broad head makes them ideal for securing softer materials.
