Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461580 is a 4-inch 20D galvanized common nail sold in a 50-pound box. Common nails of this size and penny weight are a standard fastener for structural framing, decking, and heavy wood construction. The hot-dip or electro-galvanized coating resists corrosion, making these nails suitable for treated lumber and outdoor applications. At 4 inches in length, the 20D designation confirms the standard trade sizing used across residential and commercial framing. This box quantity is sized for production-volume work on job sites.

These nails are used in structural framing, subfloor installation, ledger board attachment, and general heavy carpentry. The 20D common nail is a go-to fastener for carpenters, framing crews, and general contractors working on wood-frame residential and light commercial construction. The 50-pound box format supports bulk nailing operations, including pneumatic coil or strip nailer reloads or hand-nailing where code or preference requires.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters and framing contractors following applicable building codes, including IRC and IBC framing fastener schedules. Always verify that the galvanized coating grade meets the requirements for contact with pressure-treated lumber per the lumber manufacturer and local code. Power down any adjacent electrical or mechanical systems before working in confined framing cavities. Use appropriate eye protection and gloves when hand-nailing or loading nail guns.
