Hillman Fasteners 461648 Finish Nail 2.5in 8D 40 Pack

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461648 is a polished finish nail designed for trim and finish carpentry applications. At 2.5 inches in length and sized as an 8D nail, it drives cleanly into wood substrates with minimal surface marring. The polished shank reduces friction during installation, making it suitable for pneumatic nailers or hand-driving with a finish hammer. Each pack contains 40 nails. This fastener is typically installed by carpenters, finish contractors, and trim specialists working on baseboards, door and window casings, crown molding, and similar interior millwork.

This nail is suited for residential and light commercial interior finish work. Common applications include securing wood trim, chair rail, wainscoting panels, and stair treads where a small nail head is required for clean finishing. The 8D designation and 2.5-inch length make it a standard choice for attaching nominal 1-inch lumber and trim stock to framing or substrate. Packs come in a unit quantity of 6 per carton, providing a practical supply for ongoing job-site use.

Installation Notes

Finish nails of this size are typically installed by carpenters and finish trades using a finish hammer or pneumatic finish nailer. Set the nail head slightly below the wood surface using a nail set, then fill the void with wood putty before painting or staining. Always wear appropriate eye protection when driving nails by hand or with a nailer. Follow applicable building codes and manufacturer recommendations for fastener spacing on structural trim assemblies.
