DIN 68163 Ring Shank Nail

Ring shank nail to DIN 68163 made of carbon steel with zinc coating, diameter 4.2 mm, length 50–90 mm. FLOK supplies fasteners for Euro pallets and furniture.

The German standard DIN 68163 covers the ring shank nail — a special type of fastener for joining wooden parts. It gets its name from the notches on the shank, which provide a stronger connection. This type of nail is widely used in the production of Euro pallets and is also used for assembling furniture and other wood products. The product has a flat head of increased diameter, which provides a larger clamping surface.

Material, characteristics and use

Ring shank nails are made of carbon steel with a zinc coating that resists corrosion. To enhance the clamping effect, transverse notches are formed on the surface, providing a firm fixation of parts in the required position. These fasteners are designed for single use: when pulled out, they usually break.

Products of this type have the following characteristics:

  • The standard shank diameter is 4.2 millimeters.
  • Length can vary from 50 to 90 mm.
  • The product has a pointed tip for easier penetration into the material.

Ring shank nails drive securely into wood and hold firmly in place, allowing pallets to withstand heavy loads.
