Maze Nails T4491A050 Galvanized Ring Shank Deck Nails 50 Lb

Product Description

The MAZE NAILS T4491A050 is a 16d, 3.5-inch, 9-gauge ring shank deck nail double hot-dipped in molten zinc for corrosion resistance in treated lumber applications. Each nail is drawn from stiffer stock steel, which allows a reduced shank diameter that limits wood splitting without sacrificing structural integrity. The ring shank profile delivers exceptional withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank fasteners. This case contains 2700 nails at a net weight of 50 pounds. Licensed contractors, deck builders, and framing carpenters specify these nails for pressure-treated lumber projects where long-term fastener performance is required.

These nails are designed for use in treated lumber decking, framing, and structural applications where building codes or project specifications require hot-dip galvanized or stainless steel fasteners. Producers of pressure-treated lumber and many local building codes mandate hot-dip galvanized nails because their rust-free service life is comparable to that of the treated lumber itself. Suitable for residential and light commercial deck construction, ledger attachment, and exterior framing where fastener corrosion is a primary concern.

Key Features

• Double hot-dipped in molten zinc for a heavy, uniform galvanized coating rated for treated lumber contact
• Ring shank profile provides superior holding power and withdrawal resistance versus smooth-shank nails
• Stiffer stock steel allows reduced shank diameter to minimize wood splitting during installation
• 16d size at 3.5 inches suits standard deck framing and decking board applications
• Large case quantity of 2700 nails reduces job-site restocking frequency on production framing work

Compatibility

Designed for use with modern pressure-treated lumber where hot-dip galvanized or stainless steel fasteners are specified by the lumber producer or applicable building code.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified carpenters or deck contractors familiar with local building codes governing fastener type and spacing for treated lumber. Consult the applicable residential building code or deck ledger attachment requirements before fastening to determine correct nail pattern and schedule. Always wear appropriate eye protection when driving nails with a framing hammer or pneumatic nailer. Verify that your pneumatic nailer is configured for the correct nail diameter and collation type before loading.
