has a head, shank, and tip. It also has a specific purpose. Here’s what you should know about nail design, materials, and finishes:
Head
A flat, circular head provides a broad target, maximum hold, and will make the nail easier to remove.
Shank
The shaft or body of the nail. A smooth shank drives easily; shanks with annular rings, threads, grooves, or twists have more surface area to deliver a stronger, more permanent hold.
Common nails are used for general construction and specifically for framing and other structural work. They have a thick shank, a wide head, and a diamond-shaped point. They are most commonly used with 2 x dimensional lumber. Their thickness makes them strong but also more likely to split wood than when compared to thinner nails. Some carpenters actually dull the nail tip to prevent splitting the wood, though to do so means the tip will tear the wood fibers, thereby slightly reducing the holding power.
To avoid splitting when nailing in hardwood, drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the nail diameter.
If you can’t drill a hole, blunt the point of the nail with your hammer.
