Small nails.
Brace pendants, английский
Are lengths of rope, or now more generally chain, into which the yard-arm brace-blocks are spliced. they are used in the merchant service to save rope, to give the blocks more freedom for slewing to their work, but chiefly because when the brace is let go, the falling chain will overhaul it, making it easier to haul in the other brace.
