Nail holding power is one of the main physical and mechanical properties of wood panels. Many experienced woodworkers can tell the service life of a piece of furniture the moment a nail enters the panel. In other words, the strength of the panel's nail holding power directly affects the firmness and service life of the furniture.

The nail holding force of the board refers to the ability of the board to clamp the nail rod and prevent the nail from being pulled out by external force.

A simple explanation

The nail holding strength of the board refers to whether it is easy to fix the nail hole after the nail enters the board, or whether it is easy to loosen and fall off.

For cabinets built during renovation, the strength of the board's nail holding power means whether the cabinet hinges will fall off, the screws will loosen and produce unusual noises, the cabinet structure will deform, etc. during the next ten or twenty years of use. What's more, whether the cabinet can accompany the owner for more than ten years.

Generally speaking, the stronger the nail holding strength of the board, the stronger the furniture cabinet will be and the longer its lifespan will be. The strength of the nail holding strength depends on the wood species, density, moisture content, hardness, elasticity, grain direction, amount of glue applied, production process, nail shape, the size of the nail-to-wood contact surface, and environmental conditions.

How to make royal coconut board?

01. Select high-density and high-quality wood species

We search for new wood species around the world and apply the 5A material selection method to select high-quality wood species with high density and good wood quality. Among them, the density of Nanxiang wood is imported from Southeast Asia. The logs are selected when they are in their golden age. The density is as high as 500kg/m³, the structure is stable, and it has higher strength and more perfect nail holding power.

02. Ensure stable moisture content of the board

The boards are dried at a constant temperature for 10 days, and the curing process is carried out many times during the production process. The quality inspection process is carried out throughout the process to detect in real time whether the moisture content of the boards meets the standards, so that they tend to be balanced and stable, and then promote the enhancement of nail holding force.

03. Optimize production machines and processes

We continue to optimize the board production process and introduce high-tech machines to make each board production process more precise and with smaller errors; we innovate and upgrade the production process to greatly improve the quality of the boards, including their nail holding strength.

04. Physical test to verify the nail holding force

Through experiments, nanmu, ordinary boards and solid wood particle boards were placed under a professional testing machine to test their nail holding strength. It was found that nanmu boards can withstand a maximum weight of more than 130KG, and the nail holding strength of the other two boards is only about half of that of nanmu boards.
