Overview:

Fixman Oval Lost Head Nails 65mm are a dependable choice for general joinery, second-fix carpentry and site work where you need a strong but discreet fixing. Supplied in a large 1kg trade bag, they’re ideal for applications such as architrave, skirting, casings and other visible timber where the nail head will be punched and filled.

The oval shank helps reduce the risk of splitting when driven with the grain, while the small lost head can be set just below the surface to give a clean, professional finish that’s easy to hide with filler and paint or stain.

• Align the oval shank so the long axis runs with the wood grain to help reduce splitting.

• Fill over the punched head with suitable wood filler, allow to dry, then sand and finish to achieve a smooth, unobtrusive result.

Fixman Oval Lost Head Nails 65mm – Key FAQs

• What sort of jobs suit 65mm oval lost head nails?
  • They’re ideal for fixing architrave, skirting, casings and other visible trims where you need a strong fixing that can still be hidden and finished over.

• Why use an oval nail instead of a round wire nail?
  • The oval profile, when driven in line with the grain, helps reduce the chance of splitting the timber compared with standard round nails.

• Can the nail heads be completely hidden?
  • Yes. The lost head is designed to be punched just below the surface and then filled, giving an almost invisible fixing once painted or stained.

• Roughly how many nails are in the 1kg bag?
  • You can expect around 230 nails per 1kg bag, though the exact number may vary slightly due to normal manufacturing tolerances.

• Are these nails suitable for both trade and DIY use?
  • Absolutely. The large 1kg bag is ideal for trades on multiple jobs and also offers good value for DIY users tackling larger renovation projects.
