Copper Nails have a longer life expectancy than other types of nails.
They are Manufactured from 100% hard drawn copper, these square shank nails can be used as a rivet or for face nailing. These copper nails with the square shank provides greater holding "gripping" power than conventional round shank nails.
The raised rose head, as well as being very decorative, is stronger than any common flat headed nails, and assures positive centerline contact when bucking for riveting, providing a greater clamping / riveting force.

Square copper nails are often combined with copper roves to create rivets. Copper rivets are an important component of traditionally-built boats as they are used to fasten the timber planks together and to internal frames. The square shaft of the copper nail is forced through the under-sized round hole of the rove, allowing the rove to grip the nail. The end of the copper nail is then snipped off to length and the excess copper is squashed (or peened) over the rove to create a lasting rivet that will be impervious to sea water and last for many years.
