Hillman Fasteners 461412 6D Vinyl Coated Sinker Nail

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461412 is a 6D vinyl coated sinker nail measuring 1-7/8 inches in length. The vinyl coating reduces drive resistance and helps the nail seat flush without splitting the surrounding material. Sinker nails are a standard fastener in wood framing and general construction carpentry. This part ships in a box quantity of 12 pounds, making it practical for job-site stocking. Licensed carpenters, framing crews, and general contractors rely on this nail size for applications requiring a clean, consistent drive without pre-drilling.

The 461412 is suited for residential and light commercial wood framing, sheathing, and general rough carpentry. The 6D designation corresponds to the 1-7/8 inch length, a common size for toe-nailing, blocking, and light structural connections. The vinyl coating acts as a lubricant during driving, reducing the hammer blows needed and helping maintain wood integrity in dimensional lumber applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters and general construction tradespeople using a framing hammer or pneumatic nailer compatible with sinker-style nails. Always verify nailer specifications match the nail length and shank type before use. Follow applicable building codes for fastener schedules in structural framing assemblies. Store fasteners in a dry location to prevent corrosion before installation.
