Eaton NBM3M Nail Plate Metal Studs Steel Fastener 100 Pack

Product Description

The EATON NBM3M is a steel nail plate designed to support and protect cables routed through metal stud framing. Part of the Eaton B-Line series of cable support fasteners, this nail plate mounts to metal studs to secure low-voltage and power wiring runs, keeping cables protected from fastener penetration and positioned for code-compliant rough-in work. Electricians and low-voltage installers use this fitting during framing and pre-wire stages on commercial and residential projects. Sold in a box quantity of 100, it is suited for high-volume rough-in work where consistent, repeatable fastener placement is required.

The NBM3M nail plate is used in steel stud framing applications where cables pass through or along metal framing members. It is appropriate for commercial construction, light industrial, and residential projects using metal stud wall systems. Typical applications include electrical rough-in, low-voltage data cabling, and structured wiring installations where cable protection at stud penetrations is required by code or best practice.
