nail plate
Keratin finger cap
The nail plate is the hard, visible part of a fingernail or toenail—the translucent keratin layer that grows from the nail matrix and rests on the nail bed.
In construction, a nail plate is a flat metal connector with protruding teeth, used to join wooden members at joints in roof trusses and similar structures.
