Metallics MN6HG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can Metallics MN6HG 6d box nails be used outdoors?
Yes. The MN6HG is a hot galvanized box nail, and the galvanized coating is specified for exterior areas affected by water and humidity. That makes it suitable for outside work like fencing, trim, and sheathing where a bright steel nail would rust out.
2) Are Metallics MN6HG nails Buy American or ARRA compliant for a government job?
No. The MN6HG is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your contract carries a domestic sourcing clause, this nail will not satisfy it.
3) What is the difference between a 6d box nail and a 6d common nail?
Both are the same 6d length, but a box nail uses a thinner shank than a common nail of the same penny size. The thinner shank splits thin or narrow stock less, which is why box nails get used on trim, siding, and lighter framing members, while a common nail is chosen where more shear strength matters. The Metallics MN6HG is the box pattern in steel with a hot galvanized coat.
4) How many nails come in a jar of Metallics MN6HG?
Each jar holds 450 of the 6d hot galvanized box nails, and the jar is the pack format. Order minimum is one jar. The filled jar weighs 2.62 lbs.
5) Does the MN6HG nail have a flat head or a finish head?
Flat head. The MN6HG is a flat head box nail, so it bears on the surface of the material rather than setting below it the way a finish or casing nail does. If you need the head countersunk and puttied, this is the wrong pattern.
6) Will hot galvanized nails react with pressure treated lumber?
Hot galvanized is the coating normally specified against the corrosive chemistry in treated wood and wet exposure, and the MN6HG carries that finish on a steel shank. It is rated for exterior areas affected by water and humidity. Stainless is the step up where salt spray is constant.
7) Can I get these Metallics hot galvanized box nails in a different size or larger quantity?
Other sizes and quantities of the Metallics hot galvanized box nail are available by request beyond the 6d, 450-count jar. Ask for the penny size and pack you need.
