From the name of these nails (Bullet Point) it is clear that the tip of these nails has a bullet shape, i.e. not a rectilinear conical thickening from the tip to the main diameter, but a smooth thickening along a curved curve. This shape of the tip is achieved not by stamping - cutting off excess material from the tip of the nail, but by rolling this tip in compression rollers. This process allows not only to achieve a more correct (ballistic) and smooth shape of the tip, but also greater compaction of the nail material in the area of its tip. It is because of this compaction that these nails are called forged. Forged Bullet Point nails, like reinforced Toua nails, have a reduced body shape for more successful penetration into high-density materials and an improved galvanic coating that protects against corrosion, which makes them more suitable for installation outdoors and in humid, aggressive environments (for example, in coastal regions).
These nails have a variable body thickness - the main body of the nail has a diameter of 3.05 mm and then, using the reduction technology, the nail is narrowed to a diameter of 2.7 mm.
Large-diameter nails experience greater frontal resistance when entering the material, and also create greater stress in the material, which increases the number of possible chips and destruction in the material. The reduced body of the nail provides a "softer" entry into the material, increasing the quality of shooting to complex surfaces. The main body of the nail with a diameter of 3.05 mm, in turn, reduces the effects of bending load when driving a nail into a hard material.
