Hillman Fasteners 461376 16D Bright Finish Nail 3.5in 11 Gauge

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461376 is a 16D bright finish smooth shank nail designed for general framing, structural, and rough carpentry applications. At 3.5 inches in length and formed from 11-gauge wire, this nail delivers consistent holding power in dimensional lumber. The small head profile keeps it low-profile where a large head would interfere with finish work or mating surfaces. The bright finish means no coating or galvanizing, making it suited for interior dry applications. Sold by the box with a package quantity of 12 units, this nail is a staple supply item for framing crews, rough carpenters, and general contractors.

This nail is used in residential and light commercial framing and rough carpentry. Common applications include wall plate nailing, joist hanger work, and general structural assembly where a standard 16D common or sinker nail is specified. The smooth shank provides straightforward driving with a hammer or pneumatic nailer compatible with 16D wire nails. Interior dry environments are the primary target given the uncoated bright finish.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by framing carpenters and general contractors using a framing hammer or a compatible pneumatic nailer. Verify nailer magazine specifications accept 16D wire-gauge collated or loose nails before use. Bright finish nails are not corrosion-resistant and should not be used in exterior, treated lumber, or high-moisture environments where a galvanized or stainless fastener is required by code. Follow applicable building code nailing schedules for structural connections.
