Hillman Fasteners 461280 6D 2 Inch Galvanized Common Nail 5 Lb

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461280 is a 6D galvanized common nail designed for general framing, sheathing, and structural fastening applications. Each nail measures 2 inches in length with a smooth shank and flat head profile standard to common nail construction. The hot-dip or electro-galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance for use in treated lumber, exterior framing, and other moisture-exposed assemblies. This product is sold in a 5 lb box, making it a practical quantity for contractors and crew-level jobsite use. Carpenters, framers, and general contractors are the primary installers.

This 6D common nail is suited for residential and light commercial construction tasks including wall framing, subfloor fastening, and general wood-to-wood connections. The 2-inch length is a standard size for attaching dimensional lumber in framing assemblies and for use with pneumatic or hand-drive applications where a 6D specification is called for. Each box contains 5 lbs of nails, and the product ships in a case pack of 4 boxes.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters, framers, and general contractors following applicable building codes such as the IBC or IRC fastening schedules. Always verify nail schedule requirements with local code before selecting nail size and type for structural connections. When using galvanized nails with pressure-treated lumber, confirm the galvanization type meets current code requirements for contact with treated wood. Eye protection should be worn during hand and pneumatic nailing operations.
