Hillman Fasteners 461257 Ring Shank Drywall Nail 5 Lb

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461257 is a bright ring shank drywall nail designed for fastening gypsum wallboard to wood framing in residential and light commercial construction. The ring shank profile increases withdrawal resistance compared to smooth shank nails, reducing the chance of nail pops over time. Each box contains 5 pounds of nails at 1-1/4 inches in length. This package ships as a box of 4 units, totaling 20 pounds of product. Drywall installers and finish carpenters reach for ring shank nails when mechanical holding power is the priority on wood-framed assemblies.

These nails are suited for hand-nailing single-layer drywall applications to wood studs, joists, and blocking. The 1-1/4 inch length is a standard size for attaching 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch drywall panels. The bright finish is appropriate for interior dry installations. Each 5-pound box provides a practical job-site quantity for residential new construction, remodel work, and drywall repair projects.

Installation Notes

Drywall nails are installed by carpenters and drywall hangers following applicable local building codes. Drive nails straight and seat the head slightly below the surface to create a dimple without breaking the face paper. Follow panel manufacturer spacing requirements, typically 7 inches on ceilings and 8 inches on walls for single-layer applications. Inspect for nail pops after framing shrinkage and reset as needed before finishing.
