Dewalt DPT-16D131FH Framing Nail 3.5 in Smooth Shank 2000 Ct

Product Description

The DEWALT DPT-16D131FH is a 30-degree paper tape collated framing nail designed for pneumatic and cordless framing nailers. Each nail measures 3.5 inches in length with a 0.131-inch diameter smooth shank, a round head, and a diamond point. The bright finish resists corrosion during normal handling and storage. These nails are manufactured from steel and are intended for structural wood framing tasks. Licensed contractors, carpenters, and framing crews are the primary installers. The box contains 2,000 nails, sized for a full day of production framing work without frequent reloading.

These nails are used in residential and light commercial wood framing applications, including wall framing, roof sheathing attachment, floor system assembly, and general rough carpentry. The 30-degree collation angle is matched to nailers that accept this strip format. DEWALT lists compatibility with DEWALT cordless framing nailers. The paper tape collation feeds cleanly through the magazine and leaves minimal residue at the nail head after driving.

Installation Notes

Framing nailers should be operated by qualified carpenters or contractors following applicable building codes, including IRC and IBC fastening schedules for the application. Disconnect the nailer from its power source or remove the battery before clearing jams or loading a new strip. Always wear eye and ear protection when operating pneumatic or cordless nailers. Confirm that nail length and shank diameter meet the fastening schedule specified by the structural drawings or local code for the connection being made.
