Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461393 is a bright duplex nail designed for temporary fastening applications in construction and forming work. At 8D sizing with a 2.25-inch shank length, this nail features a double-head design that allows for easy removal after concrete forming, scaffolding, or other temporary structure assembly. The bright finish is standard for interior or dry-condition use. Each box contains 5 pounds of nails, and units are sold in a package quantity of 4 boxes. This product is specified and purchased by framing crews, concrete formwork contractors, and general construction trades.

Duplex nails are a go-to fastener for concrete formwork, temporary bracing, and scaffolding decking where disassembly is part of the workflow. The raised double head sits proud of the surface after driving, giving a clean pull point for a hammer or pry bar without damaging the substrate. The 8D designation and 2.25-inch length suit standard dimensional lumber used in forming applications across residential and light commercial jobsites.

Installation Notes

Duplex nails are installed by carpenters and concrete formwork crews using a standard framing hammer or pneumatic nailer rated for duplex-head fasteners. Drive the nail until the lower head is flush with the work surface, leaving the upper head exposed for later extraction. When stripping forms, use a hammer or pry bar against the upper head to pull the nail cleanly. Follow applicable building codes and jobsite safety requirements when assembling and stripping formwork.
