Mustad Combo 5 Slim Nail

March 16, 2023 | Posted in Nails

The Mustad Combo 5 Slim is a versatile nail with a longer length, slightly slimmer shank and larger head that fits in a wide range of shoes. Endura nails are up to 30% stronger than other forged nails and made with superior steel that provides stronger clinches. Great nail for resets — nail head fills nail holes and crease better in resets. Exclusive Endura coating drives smoother and does not rust or oxidize. Ideal for hard feet and/or dry conditions.
