Stainless Steel Ring Nails

Round Ring Nails - 304 Stainless Steel

Ring nails are a nail-style anchor point: a solid ring formed at the head, driven into wood like a standard nail instead of threaded like an eye bolt. Fasteners Plus stocks these in Type 304 stainless steel, giving you a corrosion-resistant tie-down point for cargo securement, dock and marine hardware, trailer decking, and other rigging applications where a driven anchor point works better than a bolted one.

Key Features

• Type 304 stainless steel construction resists rust and corrosion in outdoor, marine, and cargo environments
• Solid ring head provides a ready-made loop for rope, cable, bungee, or strap attachment
• Driven into wood like a standard nail, no pre-drilling or threading required
• Available in 1/8", 5/32", 3/16", 1/4", and 5/16" diameters, each with a matched length

Common Uses

• Cargo tie-down and rigging anchor points on wood decking, trailer floors, and truck beds
• Dock, rub rail, and other marine hardware
• Securing rope, cable, bungee cord, or webbing to a wood surface
• Fencing, trellising, and other outdoor wire-guide applications

Choosing the Right Size

Diameter and length are matched in this lineup, so sizing comes down to how much holding surface you need in the wood and how much load will pass through the ring. The 1/8" and 5/32" sizes suit lighter-duty rigging and wire guides, while the 3/16" through 5/16" sizes give you more shank engagement for cargo tie-down and dock applications.

Load Rating Note

• A ring nail is a driven anchor point, not a rated lifting bolt or shackle; treat it as a tie-down and rigging point, not primary life-safety hardware
• Loading at an angle reduces holding capacity compared to a straight, in-line pull
• Check the load rating and application documentation for your specific size before relying on it for a critical or overhead rigging application
