Hillman Fasteners 461347 Spiral Deck Nail 3 Inches 10D

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461347 is a 3-inch, 10D spiral shank deck nail designed for structural fastening in outdoor decking applications. The spiral shank design increases withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank nails, providing a stronger mechanical hold in wood-to-wood connections. Sold by the pound, these nails are a standard fastener choice for decking contractors and carpenters working on residential and light commercial deck builds. The 10D designation confirms the nail size and is consistent with common framing and decking load tables referenced in building codes.

These nails are intended for use in pressure-treated lumber, hardwood, and standard dimensional lumber used in deck framing and surface board installation. The 3-inch length suits typical decking board-to-joist fastening where nail penetration depth matters for pull-through resistance. Contractors installing deck boards, stair treads, or similar exterior wood assemblies will find this a standard fit for nail gun hoppers or hand-drive applications depending on the shank profile compatibility.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters and decking contractors. Always pre-drill near board ends in hardwood applications to prevent splitting. When fastening pressure-treated lumber, confirm the nail material or coating is rated for contact with treated wood chemicals per applicable building codes. Follow local building code nail schedules for required fastener spacing and penetration depth on structural decking assemblies.
