Description
8D Hot-Dipped Galvanized Box Nails | 30 lb. Bulk Bucket
Tough, reliable, and built to weather the elements. These 8D (2.5-inch) box nails are the industry standard for outdoor construction where wood splitting is a concern and corrosion resistance is a must.
Key Features
Superior Corrosion Resistance: Each nail is Hot-Dipped Galvanized (HDG), meeting ASTM A153 standards. This heavy zinc coating provides the ultimate protection against rust, making them ideal for pressure-treated lumber and coastal environments.
Split-Resistant Design: Featuring a thinner shank than standard common nails, these box nails reduce the risk of splitting delicate or thin pieces of wood while maintaining excellent holding power.
Bulk Value: Packaged in a heavy-duty 30 lb. resealable bucket with a sturdy handle, ensuring your hardware stays organized, dry, and easy to transport across the job site.
Versatile Performance: The flat head and diamond point ensure easy driving and a flush finish every time.
