Common Nails

Common nails are named common because they are far and away to most likely to be used for a variety of applications. They are made with a fairly thick wire (i.e., they are a thick nail), and have a medium sized head. They are used mostly for framing and construction, since they can take a fair amount of weight before breaking, drive into wood relatively easily, and have a large enough head to hold timber together with a low risk of pulling through. We stock common nails not only loosely (by the pound), but also in 50 pound boxes, as well as for a number of pneumatic nails guns, including Senco, Stanley-Bostich, Makita, and DuoFast.
