Kabara 20mm N5 Upholstery Nails (175pcs)

Kabara 20mm N5 Decorative Upholstery Nails, 175pcs

The Kabara 20mm N5 Upholstery Nails are large decorative furniture studs made for upholstery, furniture manufacture, reupholstery and restoration.

Each nail features a 20mm diameter head and 16mm shank and is supplied in a pack of 175.

Their larger decorative head creates a bold furniture studding effect, making these upholstery nails particularly suitable where the nail line is intended to become a noticeable part of the finished design.

They can be fitted individually or used with the matching 20mm N5 Nail Strip.

Large 20mm Upholstery Nails for Decorative Furniture

The 20mm head gives these N5 furniture studs considerably more visual impact than smaller decorative upholstery nails.

They are well suited to upholstered furniture and decorative applications including:

• Sofas and armchairs
• Wing chairs
• Leather furniture
• Headboards and upholstered bed frames
• Footstools and ottomans
• Upholstered wall and furniture panels
• Traditional and reproduction furniture
• Furniture restoration and reupholstery

These large upholstery studs can create a strong decorative border while also helping secure suitable upholstery materials to sound furniture-frame timber.

20mm Furniture Studs with 16mm Shank

The 20mm decorative head creates a prominent furniture trim, while the 16mm shank allows the nail to pass through suitable upholstery materials before fixing into the timber frame.

This larger size is especially useful where smaller furniture tacks could become visually lost against a sofa, chair or headboard.

The N5 upholstery nail can be fitted as a continuous studded border or used more selectively as a decorative feature.

Choice of Decorative Furniture Nail Finishes

The Kabara 20mm N5 upholstery nails are available in:

Antique Black, Black & Gold, Black Nickel, Brass, Bronze Renaissance, Brown & Gold, French, Nickel and Pewter.

This broad selection makes it easier to coordinate the furniture studs with upholstery fabric, leather, vinyl, exposed timber and other furniture fittings.

Brass, Bronze Renaissance, Brown & Gold and French finishes are particularly suited to traditional furniture and restoration work, while Black, Black Nickel, Nickel and Pewter can provide a stronger contrast or more appearance.

Use with 20mm N5 Upholstery Nail Strip

These loose 20mm furniture nails are also compatible with the matching 20mm N5 Nail Strip.

The nail strip is particularly useful for longer, straighter furniture edges where fitting every individual decorative stud separately would be considerably more time-consuming.

Each N5 strip is 1 metre long and creates the appearance of individually fitted 20mm furniture studs.

The strip is secured using loose fixing nails positioned every three nail heads, with 15 individual nails required for each 1 metre strip.

This makes the two products particularly useful together:

• Use nail strip for longer straight furniture edges
• Use loose N5 upholstery nails to secure the strip
• Use individual loose nails around curves and corners
• Use loose studs for short or irregular sections
• Replace individual damaged or missing furniture studs during restoration

Loose Upholstery Nails for Curves and Detailed Studding

Although nail strip is useful for longer straight sections, individual loose upholstery nails provide greater control around shaped areas.

They are particularly useful around:

• Curved chair arms
• Shaped sofa fronts
• Furniture corners
• Irregular upholstery profiles
• Short decorative borders
• Feature sections
• Existing furniture stud patterns

Individual placement allows spacing to be adjusted where necessary to follow the shape and proportions of the furniture.

Fitting 20mm Decorative Furniture Studs

Accurate positioning is important with large decorative upholstery nails because the 20mm heads make inconsistencies particularly noticeable.

Mark the intended stud line before beginning and check both spacing and alignment regularly as the work progresses.

For final fitting, a Kabara Nylon Tip Hammer is recommended for suitable decorative nails. Its nylon striking surface helps reduce the risk of scratching, flattening or marking the visible nail head compared with direct use of a conventional hard steel hammer.

Where suitable for the application, the Osborne No.777 Quick Nailer for Decorative Nails can also assist with initial positioning of decorative furniture nails.

Always drive upholstery nails carefully and squarely into suitable, sound furniture-frame timber.
