In NetHack, a flimsy object is an object with a material type of:[1]

Description

A flimsy helm can be worn by a monster with horns, as long as the monster is not tiny and has hands.[2] The horns will pierce through the helm, which does not affect its function.[3] A non-flimsy helm will be pushed off your head if you polymorph into a form with horns, even if it is cursed, as will any helm that you have not yet finished putting on.

Flimsy objects will not scratch a gray stone; rubbing them together will create streaks on the stone instead of scratches.[4]

A flimsy weapon cannot be shattered.[5]
