About this product
Description
Getting a clean, split-free fix for skirting boards, architraves and door linings requires bright oval nails designed specifically for second-fix carpentry. Timco Bright Oval Nails 40mm are oval-section wire nails with a bright, unplated finish that sits low against the timber surface and can be punched below for a seamless result after filling and painting.
Key features
- Oval cross-section shank: cuts through wood fibres rather than forcing them apart, dramatically reducing the risk of timber splitting during nailing
- Bright finish: no surface coating keeps the nail self-coloured and low-profile, accepting filler and paint directly
- 40mm length: the correct size for fixing standard 18-25mm skirting boards and architraves to timber grounds and battens
- Approximately 470 nails per 500g bag: sufficient for a typical room’s full perimeter of skirting and door surround work
- Suitable for softwood and MDF: the oval shank profile works effectively in both traditional timber and modern sheet materials
Bright oval nails in the 40mm size are the standard fixing for second-fix joinery across Irish housing. Carpenters use them for fixing skirting boards and architraves to plaster or timber surfaces, nailing door stops and beading into position, and securing dado rails and picture rails. The oval shank leaves a smaller entry hole than a round wire nail of the same gauge, making it easier to fill and achieve an invisible surface finish when decorated. They are also used in furniture assembly and lightweight framing where splitting risk is high with traditional round nails.
Irish building practice has relied on oval nails as the standard second-fix fastener for generations, and modern renovation projects continue to demand them in quantity. The 500g bag format provides enough nails for a full room installation while remaining easy to transport and store in a site bag or toolbox. Having a reliable supply of the correct size on hand keeps finishing work moving efficiently through a project.
