Common nails, as the name suggests, is the most frequently used type of framing nail. Compared to box nails, this one is much thicker and stronger for medium to heavy construction work such as creating shear wall panels, lumber framing and building supports, etc. Mostly, they are not suitable for decorative and trim work, which need an attractive appearance.

Our galvanized common nails are made of wire which is cut into a variety of length from size 3d to 60d. The common nail with a length of longer than 6 inches is colloquially known as spike. The longer length often corresponds to wider diameter and bigger surface area and then a higher holding powder. Thereby, it is important to choose the appropriate one to avoid your wood boards from splitting and cracking.
