The BOSTITCH 688-S16D131-FH Round Head Framing Nail is a 3-1/2 inch, steel fastener designed for framing applications. Its round head and smooth shank provide a durable, reliable driving performance suitable for structural or carrier framing tasks where a clean, flush nail profile is desired. The diamond point helps initiate entry through wood fibers, aiding penetration and reducing splitting in many common framing substrates.
Constructed from steel with a 28-degree point angle, this nail balances rigidity with driveability for heavy-duty framing use. Each box contains 2,000 nails, offering a ready supply for production or maintenance projects, and the package is designed for efficient bulk handling in typical framing workflows. The nails are specifically described as sturdy and durable, reflecting expectations for consistent performance under standard framing loads and repetitive drive cycles.
Common applications include wooden framing, support members, and other structural assemblies where a reliable, fast-installing nail is required. When planning projects, verify compatibility with your nailer and the material you’re fastening, and ensure proper set depth to avoid countersinking or over-penetration. This product is categorized under facility maintenance and is intended for use with standard framing tools that accommodate 3-1/2 inch, 28-degree steel round head nails. The 2,000-count box helps reduce reordering frequency on active sites.)
