Ensuring the longevity and stability of your construction projects requires fasteners that can withstand the intended environment. Huttig-Grip 2-3/8″ x .113 8D Coil Ring Shank Nails – EG Finish, available from A1A Wholesale Supply, provide a dependable fastening solution for applications where a degree of corrosion resistance is beneficial beyond a bright finish, but the full protection of hot-dip galvanization or stainless steel is not required. These are standard 8D nails, measuring 2-3/8 inches in length with a .113-inch shank diameter, widely used for framing, sheathing, and subflooring.
A key feature is the ring shank, which provides significantly increased withdrawal resistance compared to smooth shank nails. The annular rings create a strong mechanical bond with the wood, crucial for maintaining structural integrity and preventing nail back-out, especially in applications subject to vibration or movement.
These nails are finished with an Electro-Galvanized (EG) coating. This process applies a thin layer of zinc to the steel, offering basic protection against rust and corrosion. This makes them suitable for interior applications where occasional condensation might occur, or for exterior applications that are fully protected from direct rain and prolonged moisture. It is important to note that EG finish is generally not recommended for use with treated lumber or in exposed exterior applications, as the coating may not provide sufficient long-term corrosion resistance in these conditions. Always consult local building codes and fastener recommendations for specific applications.
The nails are collated in 15-degree wire coils, designed for high-speed, efficient installation using compatible pneumatic 15-degree coil framing and sheathing nail guns. The coil format allows for a large magazine capacity, reducing the frequency of reloading and increasing overall productivity on the job site.
