    Found this many years ago. Only one person has known what it is because his father was in service during the second world war.

      Yes TRIKER It was used to plug the rubber rafts if they had bullet holes
    5. TRIKER TRIKER, 12 years ago
      Ahhh yes. I forgot that detail. That's the reason for the spiral groove. They also had smooth ones of various sizes that would be pounded into the hull of ships for bullet and larger holes used with a fiberous stuff called Oakum (if my memory serves me.) to help seal the plug.
