Hillman Fasteners 461258 Ring Shank Drywall Nail 1-3/8in

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461258 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, helping drywall panels stay firmly seated over time. At 1-3/8 inches in length, this nail is sized for standard single-layer drywall applications. The bright finish is suited for interior use where corrosion resistance is not a primary requirement. Each box contains 12 pounds of nails, making this an appropriate bulk purchase for framing and drywall crews working on larger projects.

This nail is used in interior drywall installation where panels are hand-nailed or pneumatically driven into wood studs, joists, or furring strips. It is a standard fastener choice for residential new construction, remodels, and repair work. Drywall installers and general contractors typically keep this size on hand for single-layer 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch drywall applications over wood framing. The bright ring shank design is intended for dry interior environments only.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by drywall installers or general carpenters following applicable building code requirements. Nails should be driven with a drywall hammer or pneumatic nailer to a slight dimple without breaking the face paper of the gypsum board. Follow local building codes and gypsum board manufacturer spacing requirements for nail patterns. Bright-finish nails are not recommended for exterior, high-humidity, or fire-rated assembly applications.
