Product Overview

The Hillman Fasteners 461518 6 oz 1‑5/8 Oak panel nail is engineered for precision paneling work where a clean, flush finish is essential.

The nail measures 1‑5/8 inches in length, a size that balances holding power with minimal material intrusion, making it suitable for a wide range of interior applications, from trim installation to cabinet assembly. Its compact packaging—measuring 1.43 x 2.68 x 4.87 inches—allows for easy storage in toolboxes, workbenches, or on‑site supply kits. The product carries the reputable Standard Plumbing Supply manufacturer label, ensuring consistent quality control and adherence to industry standards. With a best‑seller rank of #74 in the Finishing Nails sub‑category, this nail has proven its reliability among both professional tradespeople and dedicated DIY enthusiasts.

Usage

Designed specifically for paneling, this nail excels in applications where a smooth, unobtrusive finish is required. It is ideal for attaching oak panels, decorative trims, and lightweight interior framing where the nail head must not protrude. The flat‑head design simplifies the process of concealing fasteners, allowing painters and finishers to achieve a flawless surface without the need for additional filler or sanding. Whether you are a professional carpenter installing crown molding in a commercial space or a homeowner updating a kitchen cabinet, the 6‑oz weight provides enough mass to drive the nail securely without splitting delicate wood fibers. The nail’s steel composition resists corrosion, making it suitable for environments with fluctuating humidity, such as bathrooms or basements, where traditional iron nails might rust over time.

FAQ

What wood types are compatible with this nail?

The nail is suitable for most softwoods and hardwoods used in interior paneling, including oak, pine, poplar, and maple. Its flat head and moderate length help prevent splitting in denser woods while providing sufficient grip in softer species.

Can these nails be used outdoors?

While the steel material offers good corrosion resistance, the nails are primarily intended for interior applications. For exterior use, a galvanized or stainless‑steel variant is recommended to ensure long‑term durability against weather exposure.

Do I need a special nail gun for installation?

No special equipment is required. The nails are sized for standard pneumatic or cordless nail guns that accommodate 1‑5/8 inch finishing nails. They can also be driven manually with a hammer for smaller projects.

How many nails are included per package?

Each package contains a single unit of 6 oz weight, which typically holds approximately 200 nails depending on the exact dimensions and packaging density.
