Copper and copper alloys are typically 99 percent copper and very small amounts of silver, arsenic, antimony, phosphorous and tellurium. The corrosion resistance of copper alloys is very good in seawater and excellent in salt atmospheres. Copper is a soft and ductile metal, and has long been used as fastenings in traditional wooden boats with copper clinched nails or nails riveted over roves. Our flat head copper boat nails are sourced from the manufacturer in the UK and are made from annealed copper wire using the same technique practiced over many years.
We have an extensive range of copper boat nails in flat head that are kept in stock and rose head nails that are available by the KG from our supplier in New Zealand at reasonable lead times. With a complementary range of copper roves to suite. Used with Roves or alone by clenching, copper boat nails are the classic nail used to build classic clinker boats.
The table below shows the Copper Nail sizes which are held in Australia. We will sell from 100 grams to 100 kilograms.
