At 3-1\/2 inches overall length and 9 gauge diameter, this nail delivers the holding power required for dimensional lumber fastening. The fluted shank increases withdrawal resistance compared to a smooth-shank nail, making it well suited for decking boards, rim joists, and similar load-bearing connections. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with an uncoated finish, this nail is intended for use in dry or protected environments where corrosion resistance is not a primary requirement. Carpenters, framing crews, and general contractors are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nail is used in residential and light commercial wood framing, deck construction, and subfloor fastening. The 16D designation corresponds to the standard nail sizing used throughout the construction trades, making this nail compatible with most framing nailers and hand-nailing applications that call for a 3-1\/2 inch, 9 gauge fastener. Typical installations include deck ledger attachment, joist-to-rim-board connections, and plank-to-joist fastening where a fluted shank profile is specified for added holding strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16D nail size at 3-1\/2 inches overall length for standard framing and decking applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9 gauge diameter provides appropriate shank strength for dimensional lumber connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFluted shank design increases withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction for consistent mechanical performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish — suitable for dry or protected installation environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 16D replacement or supply nail for wood framing and decking applications requiring a 9 gauge, 3-1\/2 inch fluted-shank fastener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by carpenters, framing contractors, or general construction crews. Ensure the receiving lumber is properly supported and that nail placement follows applicable building code requirements for spacing and edge distance. Uncoated steel nails are not recommended for direct contact with pressure-treated lumber or in exposed exterior applications where moisture exposure is expected, as corrosion may occur over time. Always follow local building code and fastener schedule requirements for the specific structural application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNail Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16D\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fluted\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2 Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16HGSTPD5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51705082642738,"sku":"16HGSTPD5","price":58.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/dbcbb65e0a173f039ca6271839714805.jpg?v=1788426708","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-16hgstpd5-16d-decking-nails-3-1-2-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
