Value Collection 4HGC1 4D Common Nail 1-1/2 in 13 Gauge Galvanized

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4HGC1 is a 4D common nail designed for general fastening applications in construction and trade work. Built to 13 gauge wire diameter and measuring 1-1/2 inches in overall length, this nail features a ring shank profile that increases pull-out resistance compared to a smooth shank. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in treated lumber, exterior framing, sheathing, and other applications where moisture exposure is a concern. Constructed from Grade 2 steel, the 4HGC1 delivers consistent performance in pneumatic nailers or hand-nailing operations.

This nail is suited for residential and light commercial construction tasks including framing, subflooring, decking, and general carpentry. The 4D penny size and 1-1/2 inch length make it a common choice for attaching thinner stock, furring strips, and light structural members. Tradespeople such as carpenters, framers, and general contractors working on both interior and exterior projects will find this nail appropriate for code-compliant fastening in wood-to-wood connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified carpenters or framers using a hammer or compatible pneumatic nailer. Verify nail gauge and shank type compatibility with your nailer before use. Always follow applicable building codes such as the IRC or IBC for fastener schedules and spacing requirements. Wear appropriate eye protection when hand-nailing or operating pneumatic tools.
