Hillman Fasteners 461278 4D Galvanized Common Nail 1.5 in

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461278 is a 4D galvanized common nail measuring 1.5 inches in length, sold in a 1-pound box. Common nails feature a flat head and smooth shank, making them a standard fastener for general framing, sheathing, and rough carpentry work. The hot-dip or electro-galvanized coating resists rust and corrosion, making these nails suitable for treated lumber, exterior applications, and humid job-site conditions. Packaged in a 1-pound box, this SKU is a standard trade-quantity unit for contractors and finish crews who need a reliable supply of small-format common nails on hand.

These 1.5-inch 4D common nails are used across residential and light commercial construction for tasks such as nailing furring strips, attaching thin sheathing panels, securing blocking, and general rough carpentry where a small-diameter corrosion-resistant nail is required. The galvanized finish makes them appropriate for outdoor structures, sill plates near grade, and other moisture-exposed framing details. Carpenters, framing crews, and general contractors typically stock this size for quick, versatile fastening tasks throughout a project.

• Galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-lumber applications
• Flat head common-nail profile for high holding strength in wood-to-wood connections
• Sold by the pound in a box (BX) unit for easy inventory and job-site use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 4D galvanized common nail compatible with standard wood framing, furring, sheathing, and rough carpentry applications where a 1.5-inch corrosion-resistant fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters and general contractors using a hammer or pneumatic nailer rated for the appropriate nail gauge and length. Always verify that nail length and shank diameter are appropriate for the lumber thickness and load requirement before driving. For applications involving pressure-treated lumber, confirm that the galvanized coating grade meets applicable building code requirements for contact with treated wood. Store nails in a dry location to prevent premature corrosion of the coating.
