Hillman Fasteners 461385 Bright Box Nail 1.5 in 4D

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461385 is a 1.5-inch 4D bright box nail sold by the pound in a box quantity of 12 units. Box nails feature a thinner shank than common nails, reducing the risk of splitting when fastening into dry or thin lumber. The bright finish indicates an uncoated steel nail suitable for interior framing, sheathing, and general rough carpentry. These are a standard choice for light-duty wood-to-wood fastening tasks handled by carpenters, framers, and general contractors working on residential and light commercial projects.

This nail is sized at 1.5 inches in length, corresponding to the 4D penny size designation. That length makes it well suited for fastening thin boards, corner beading, furring strips, and interior trim work where a smaller fastener is needed to avoid blowthrough or surface damage. The box-style nail profile drives cleanly with a standard hammer or pneumatic nailer compatible with 4D box nails. Each box contains 12 pounds of fasteners, making it appropriate for job-site stocking or supply house distribution.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters, framers, or general contractors using a standard claw hammer or a pneumatic finish nailer compatible with 4D box nails. Confirm the nailer magazine accepts the correct nail shank diameter and length before loading. For interior applications, verify that substrate moisture content is within acceptable range, as bright uncoated fasteners are not rated for exterior or high-humidity environments. Follow applicable local building codes when specifying nail size and spacing for structural applications.
