4.9/5 (27731 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from Nails and Spikes in Hickory It is an old practice to wax the points of nails to facilitate driving them into hard woods. Test data indicate that even small amounts of wax materially decrease the force required in nail driving and can reduce nail buckling as well as lumber splitting. However, such application of wax can reduce the nail - holding power In light of this potential loss in holding power, preference may be given to the use of especially slender, improved nails instead of waxing the heavier common wire nail. Under certain conditions, particularly when large nails and spikes have to be used, predrilling of hickory may be necessary. It can be relatively time-consuming, and hence expensive. For this reason, pre drilling should be employed only in cases where no other more satisfactory nailing procedure can be used.
