Copper Clout Nails for Boat Construction

Clout nails in cu are often used with copper washers, to create a traditional copper rivet, similar to clinch or clench nailing. Copper rivets are often utilized in classic planked wooden boat construction. The sheathing nails have a large clout-like head (around 8mm) and a short round smooth shank.
