Hillman Fasteners 461262 Drywall Nail 1-5/8 in 12 Count

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461262 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 pull-out resistance compared to smooth shank nails, helping to reduce nail pops after the drywall is finished and painted. At 1-5/8 inches in length, this nail is sized for standard single-layer drywall installation over wood studs. This box contains 12 nails. Carpenters, drywall hangers, and general contractors reach for this fastener on framing and drywall rough-in work.

This nail is suited for attaching gypsum wallboard panels to wood stud framing in interior wall and ceiling assemblies. The bright finish indicates no coating, making it appropriate for dry interior environments. The ring shank design grips the wood fiber more aggressively than a smooth shank, which is especially important on ceiling installations where fastener holding power is critical to long-term performance.

Installation Notes

Drywall nails of this type are driven by a drywall hammer or framing hammer and are typically installed by drywall hangers or general carpenters. Drive each nail straight and set it slightly dimpled below the drywall surface without breaking the paper face. Follow local building codes and gypsum board manufacturer spacing requirements for fastener patterns on walls and ceilings. Do not use in wet or exterior environments where corrosion resistance is required.
