Copper rosehead nails are commonly used in wooden boat building and renovation. Their heads are rose-shaped and the nails are made entirely of copper.
Copper is a non-corrosive metal, resistant to rust and corrosion, making these nails ideal for use in outdoor or marine environments where exposure to moisture is a concern. Additionally, copper has antimicrobial properties, which may be beneficial in certain applications where hygiene is a consideration.
These nails are commonly used in boat building, particularly for fastening wooden planks to the frames of wooden boats where they are driven into the wood using a hammer. The rose-shaped heads provide a larger surface area, which helps to distribute the force of the hammer blow and minimize the risk of damaging the wood surface. The nails are driven flush with the wood or slightly below the surface to ensure a neat and finished appearance.
