Installed directly over notched or bored studs, joists, or plates, this protector plate acts as a barrier against fastener penetration from drywall screws, nails, and staples driven after rough-in work is complete. The 920-3 measures 1.5 inches in width by 3 inches in length and is constructed of steel, providing a durable, code-compliant layer of protection over concealed lines. Plumbers, electricians, and mechanical contractors install these plates as a standard part of rough-in inspections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNail plates are used in residential and light commercial construction wherever pipes, conduit, or cables pass through framing within 1.25 inches of the face of a stud or joist. They are a required installation by the International Residential Code and the National Electrical Code in locations where the line is vulnerable to fastener damage after walls are closed. The 920-3 is suited for single-trade and multi-trade rough-in applications in wood-framed wall and floor assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction provides a hard barrier against nail and screw penetration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-profile thickness of 0.1 inches for flush installation against framing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.5 x 3 inch footprint sized for standard stud and joist notch applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports code compliance at rough-in inspection for plumbing, electrical, and HVAC rough-ins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.06 pounds for easy handling and high-volume installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard OEM-style nail plate for use in wood-framed residential and light commercial construction wherever pipes, conduit, or cables require fastener protection at stud or joist penetrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eNail plates are typically installed by plumbers, electricians, or mechanical contractors during the rough-in phase before drywall.
