Hillman Fasteners 461424 16D Vinyl Coated Sinker Nail

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461424 is a 16D vinyl coated sinker nail measuring 3.25 inches in length. The vinyl coating reduces driving resistance, allowing the nail to seat faster and with less effort using a standard framing hammer or pneumatic nailer. Sinker nails are a staple fastener in structural framing and sheathing applications. This product is sold by the pound and packaged in a box format, with a package quantity of 12 units per box. The coating also provides a modest increase in holding power once the nail is driven and the coating sets against the surrounding material.

These 16D sinker nails are used in residential and light commercial wood-frame construction. Common applications include wall framing, floor joist assembly, roof framing, and structural sheathing attachment. Framing carpenters and general contractors rely on this nail size as a standard fastener for dimensional lumber connections where a full common nail is not required. The 16D designation makes this nail compatible with typical framing nail schedules specified in building plans.
