Hi
they are called corrugated fasteners and Screwfix do sell them,

just Google corrugated fasteners

They might not be suitable for a rabbit huch as they are plain steel

Cheers Nigel

Unless you mean 'Ring nails'
The sort pallets are put together with. almost impossible to remove once driven in :roll:

You can get them anywhere - even B&Q - but if you are making a lot of rabbit hutches you might want to invest in a gun for inserting the corrugated fasteners.

If you are currently pre-drilling and screwing this would speed things up about twenty-fold!
