Stanley Bostitch S8DRGAL-FH Galvanized Framing Nail 2000ct

Product Description

The STANLEY BOSTITCH S8DRGAL-FH is a 2,000-count box of 8D full head framing nails designed for high-load exterior and pressure-treated lumber applications. Each nail measures 2-3/8 inches in length with a .113-inch shank diameter and features a ring shank profile for superior withdrawal resistance. The thickcoat galvanized finish is engineered to meet or exceed ASTM A153 hot-dipped galvanized performance standards, providing consistent corrosion protection in chemically aggressive pressure-treated lumber environments. These are 28-degree wire-weld stick nails suited to production framing work by licensed carpenters and framing contractors.

This nail is specifically designed for use in pressure-treated lumber and exterior structural applications where standard galvanized coatings may underperform. The ring shank geometry increases holding power in shear and withdrawal compared to smooth-shank nails of the same diameter, making them appropriate for decking, framing, and structural sheathing where code or engineering specifications call for ring-shank fasteners. The 28-degree wire-weld stick configuration feeds reliably in compatible Bostitch pneumatic framing nailers.

Key Features

• Thickcoat galvanization meets or exceeds ASTM A153 hot-dipped galvanized performance for corrosion resistance
• Ring shank profile delivers higher withdrawal resistance than smooth-shank nails of equivalent diameter
• 28-degree wire-weld stick format for use in compatible pneumatic framing nailers
• Full head design provides maximum bearing surface and code-compliant fastener head coverage
• Specifically rated for use in pressure-treated lumber and exterior applications
• 2,000 nails per box for high-volume production framing work

Compatibility

Fits Bostitch model F28WW (TV 632-556) and other Bostitch models N80SB and N88WW.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified carpenters or framing contractors using a compatible 28-degree wire-weld pneumatic framing nailer. Verify nailer air pressure settings are within the tool manufacturer's specified range before loading. When fastening into pressure-treated lumber, confirm the galvanization grade meets local building code requirements, as some treated lumber specifications mandate hot-dipped galvanized or equivalent fasteners per the IBC or IRC. Wear appropriate eye and hearing protection during pneumatic fastener operation.
