Overview:

Fixman Oval Lost Head Nails 25mm (1 inch) are ideal for finer joinery and detailed interior woodwork where a neat, almost invisible fixing is required. Supplied in a 1kg trade bag, they’re perfect for small trims, beading and light decorative work where longer nails would be excessive.

The oval shank and small lost head are designed to be punched just below the timber surface and filled over, giving a clean, smooth finish. When aligned with the grain, the oval profile also helps to reduce the risk of splitting in more delicate or brittle timbers.

• Oval lost head design for discreet, easy-to-hide nail heads

• Oval profile helps minimise splitting when driven with the wood grain

• Fill the punched hole with a suitable wood filler, allow to dry, then sand and finish as required for a smooth, unobtrusive result.

Fixman Oval Lost Head Nails 25mm – Key FAQs

• What type of work are 25mm oval lost head nails best for?
  • They’re ideal for lighter applications such as small trims, beads and decorative mouldings where you want a secure fixing without a deep or highly visible nail.

• Why choose oval lost head nails instead of standard round wire nails?
  • The oval profile helps reduce splitting when driven with the grain, and the small lost head can be punched and filled so the fixing virtually disappears after finishing.

• Can these nails be used in hardwood?
  • Yes, they can be used in many hardwoods, but it’s good practice to align the oval with the grain and, if necessary, pilot drill very delicate sections to further reduce splitting.

• How many nails are in a 1kg bag?
  • The pack is sold by weight, so quantities can vary slightly depending on batch and wire thickness. You can expect a high count per bag due to the shorter length.

• Are they suitable for both DIY and professional projects?
  • Absolutely. The 1kg bag offers plenty of nails for regular trade use while also providing good value for DIYers working on detailed interior joinery.
