Carpet nails (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tacks

'carpet nails' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for tacks that I've seen before include "They secure" , "Shorts nails with big heads" , "Drawing pins" , "Approaches" , "They fix" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, the Evening Standard, The Sun and The Mirror.
