Plasterboard nails are specialised fasteners designed to securely attach plasterboard to walls and ceilings. Their unique design ensures a strong hold in various construction and home improvement projects. This category features a range of plasterboard nails suitable for different applications and preferences.

Plasterboard Ring Nails

These nails are available in 10Kg boxes and come in various sizes to suit diverse plastering needs. Plasterboard ring nails are characterised by their ringed shanks which provide extra grip and holding power. This makes them ideal for use in areas where the plasterboard might be subject to movement or vibration. They are also suitable for heavier or thicker boards, offering enhanced stability.

Aluminium Nails - Clout

Aluminium clout nails, sized at 30mm x 2.65mm, are sold in 1kg packages. These nails are lighter than traditional steel nails and are resistant to rust and corrosion, making them a good choice for moisture-prone areas or external use. The clout design features a flat head, ensuring a larger surface area for holding the plasterboard. These nails are particularly useful for delicate plasterboard installation where minimal surface disturbance is desired.

Practical Uses and Selection Guide

  1. Ring Nails: Ideal for areas with potential movement or where additional holding strength is needed. Best suited for heavier or thicker plasterboards.

  2. Aluminium Clout Nails: Perfect for environments susceptible to moisture, such as bathrooms or outdoor installations. They are also great for situations where a more discreet nail head is preferred.

     

When selecting plasterboard nails, consider the environment where they will be used, the thickness and type of the plasterboard, and the desired finish. In moisture-rich environments, aluminium nails are preferable, while ring nails are more suited for heavy-duty applications. Always ensure that the length of the nail is appropriate for the thickness of the plasterboard to achieve optimal holding power.
