what are common nails most often used for

2023-06-18

Steel remains the go-to material for nail production, as it provides a dependable strength that is invaluable for crafting fixings in construction and other tasks. Nails are available in a myriad of sizing and contouring, permitting the consumer to select the one that meets the specific requirements of their endeavor.

If you need a steel nail for your construction project, common nails are the way to go. Typical sizes of common nails go up to 16d, equalling 3.25 inches long and boasting a diameter of 0.131 inches. These are the most widely used nails for building and framing purposes.

For those small, finishing touches, the 6d finishing nail is the go-to tool. It’s length of 1.75 inches and a fairly slim diameter of 0.099 inches make it an ideal choice for completion of finished projects. Perfect for plaster and woodwork, this small but mighty nail is sure to get the job done.

Boasting 4 inches in length and a diameter of 0.162 inches, the 10d roofing nail primes itself as the most commonly used nail for roofing projects. With the larger size than typical, the 10d roofing nail can handle tasks that regular nails could not dream of performing.
