Value Collection 112CTDDW1 Drywall Nail 13 Gauge 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 112CTDDW1 is a 13-gauge smooth-shank drywall nail designed for fastening drywall panels to wood framing in residential and light commercial construction. At 1-1/2 inches overall length, this nail is sized for standard single-layer drywall installation. The cement-coated finish increases friction during driving, which helps reduce nail pops after the fastener is set. The smooth shank profile allows clean, consistent driving with a standard drywall hammer or nail gun compatible with this gauge. Grade 2 steel construction provides the structural integrity expected for wallboard fastening applications.

This nail is suited for interior drywall work where panels are being fastened to wood studs or ceiling joists. The 1-1/2-inch length is appropriate for attaching 1/2-inch or 5/8-inch drywall to framing members. Drywall hangers, finish carpenters, and general contractors commonly use this fastener during rough-in and finish stages of residential and light commercial builds. The cement coating activates during driving to improve holding strength and minimize the chance of the fastener backing out over time.

Installation Notes

Drywall nails of this type are installed by carpenters, drywall hangers, and general contractors using a drywall hammer or compatible pneumatic nailer rated for 13-gauge fasteners. Drive nails flush with a slight dimple in the drywall face without breaking the paper surface. Follow applicable building codes for fastener spacing, which typically require nails at regular intervals along studs and ceiling joists. Do not overdrive nails, as this can tear the paper face and reduce holding strength.
