Tip: 3-1/4" x .131" is the workhorse heavy framing nail for 2x6 wall framing, double-stud top plates, header build-up, double sole plates, sill-plate-to-mudsill, and full embedment through doubled 2x lumber. Bright basic carbon steel is for dry interior framing only - do not use in cedar, redwood, ACQ/MCQ treated lumber, or any application exposed to weather; step up to a hot-dipped galvanized nail (the HDG ring-shank in this family) for treated lumber, exterior framing, or moisture-exposed assemblies.
