Hillman Fasteners 461421 12D Sinker Nail 5 Lb

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461421 is a 12D vinyl coated sinker nail used for framing, sheathing, and general wood fastening in residential and light commercial construction. At 3-1/8 inches in length, this nail is sized for standard framing applications where a 12-penny fastener is specified. The vinyl coating reduces driving resistance and helps the nail seat cleanly into lumber. Each package contains 5 pounds of nails. This product is handled by carpenters, framers, and general contractors working to IBC or IRC framing requirements.

This sinker nail is suited for wood-to-wood framing connections including wall plates, headers, and floor systems. The 12D designation matches common nailing schedules found in residential building plans. The 5-pound package format is practical for job-site use where bulk quantity is needed without palletizing. Framers and finish carpenters working on wood-framed structures will find this nail appropriate for structural nailing where code-specified 12D sinkers are required.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters and framers following the project nailing schedule. When using with a pneumatic nailer, verify tool compatibility with 12D sinker nails before loading. Follow applicable building code nailing schedules per IRC or IBC for structural connections. Inspect lumber for splits after driving and replace any fasteners that miss the framing member.
