About This Project

HEADS :

FLAT HEAD: The most common, providing a large striking surface and solid holding power; larger head prevents the nail from pulling through.

LARGE FLAT HEAD: Larger than standard flat head; provides greatest striking surface and holding power

CHECKERED FLAT HEAD: Textured to prevent slippage of the hammer.

COUNTERSUNK HEAD: Head has a conical shape and is designed to be pushed below the surface . (countersunk), which allows them to be concealed with putty for a nail-free finish; designed for finishing.

DUPLEX HEAD : Double-headed to make nail removal easier; for temporary nailing.

CUPPED HEAD: Heads are concave to facilitate concealment and are often used on drywall.

BRAD HEAD: Smaller head allows nail to be concealed more easily; reduced holding power; used for finish and trim work.
