Black Oxide Square-Cut Decorative Wrought Head Nails

Designed to simulate the hand-forged nails of the late 1700's, our decorative wrought head nails feature a three-sided head, and are ideal for authentic restoration or antique effect. Made of solid steel with a matte black oxide coating, they are useful for attaching rough sawn siding, face-nailing flooring, batten doors, paneling, countertops and cabinet work. Rooted in age-old tradition, our wide array of period restoration square nails are cut much the same way they were 150 years ago. The result? Outstanding durability and holding power, designed to last a lifetime. Once you've experienced the quality and performance of our vintage reproductions, they'll surely become your preferred choice for a variety of applications. Made in the USA.

Square or cut nails are very durable and have been used for over 200 years. They are hard to pull out because their shape causes the wood fibers to push downward and wedge against the nails.
