The head on each nail helps to drive the top bar and bottom bars of each frame into the sidebars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many nails you need is dependent on how you assemble your \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/plastic-foundation-frames-and-assembly-tools\/products\/medium-625-inch-lanstroth-frame\"\u003eframes\u003c\/a\u003e and how many frames you need.\u003c\/strong\u003e For one frame with these nails, you will need at least 4 nails and 8 nails at the most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur frame nails have a smooth shank and are vinyl coated\u003c\/strong\u003e which makes them easier to use and reduces splitting. These nails are not coated with a material to resist corrosion, but it isn't necessary because they will be inside the hive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe coating on these nails helps with two things: easier to drive into the wood and superior grab compared to common nails. The vinyl coating makes these nails perfect for bee frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe highly recommend using \u003ca href=\"\/products\/titebond-3-wood-glue\"\u003ewood glue\u003c\/a\u003e when assembling bee frames. Even with the best nails, frames can come apart easily and it can be a huge mess to try and put them back together when the bees have already built a comb. We carry \u003ca href=\"\/products\/titebond-3-wood-glue\"\u003eTitebond III Wood Glue\u003c\/a\u003e for assembling both frames and boxes; it's what we use and you won't be disappointed with it.
