Construction Hardware Flat Head Pin

A flat head pin is a type of hardware used in concrete forming that is designed to hold concrete forms securely in place. The pin consists of a long, straight steel rod with a flat head at one end and a pointed end at the other.

Flat head pins are typically used in conjunction with a horseshoe-shaped accessory called a flathead pin lock. The pin lock is placed over the pointed end of the pin and is then hammered into the wooden formwork, securing the form in place.

Flat head pins are commonly used in horizontal formwork applications, such as when pouring concrete slabs or beams. They are also used in vertical formwork applications, such as when pouring concrete walls or columns.

Flat head pins are often preferred over other types of hardware, such as screws or nails, because they can be easily removed from the formwork once the concrete has set. This allows for the formwork to be reused for future projects, which can be a cost-effective solution for construction projects.
