What moulding thickness is the 5mm corner nail designed for?

The 5mm corner nail is best for mouldings 8–12 mm thick, providing secure mechanical joining without risk of the nail breaking through the frame face.

Is the 5mm nail compatible with Mitre-Titre machines?

Yes, the Nail for Frame series is compatible with frame joining machines that accept glued-wedge style V-nails, including many Mitre-Titre compatible machines.

Can I use 5mm nails on MDF mouldings?

Yes, 5mm nails work well with thin MDF mouldings (8–12mm wide). For thicker MDF profiles, move to 7mm or 8mm nails for better hold.

The 5mm corner nail for picture frame is the smallest V-nail in our Nail for Frame series, purpose-built for thin and delicate moulding profiles where larger fasteners would break through the wood face or cause splitting.

Applications for 5mm Frame Corner Nails

Small photo frames (4×6, 5×7), miniature artwork frames, thin decorative borders, and slim contemporary mouldings are all ideal applications for this petite fastener.
