Hillman Fasteners 122615 Copper Cut Tacks 1/2 in No 6

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 122615 is a No. 6 copper cut tack measuring 1/2 inch in length, sold in a 6-count package. Cut tacks are flat-headed, sharp-pointed fasteners produced by cutting tapered points from flat stock rather than wire-drawing, which gives them a wedge-shaped shank and strong holding power in soft materials. The copper construction resists corrosion and staining, making these tacks appropriate for applications where ferrous fasteners would bleed rust or react with treated materials. Carpenters, upholsterers, and finish tradespeople commonly keep copper cut tacks on hand for light tacking and securing tasks.

Copper cut tacks in the No. 6 size and 1/2 inch length are typically used for securing carpet edges, attaching fabric to wood frames, fastening felt underlayments, and similar upholstery or trim tasks. They are well-suited to both residential and light commercial finish work where a small, corrosion-resistant fastener is required. The package contains 6 tacks, making this a practical unit for small jobs or sample quantities.

Installation Notes

Cut tacks are typically driven by hand with a tack hammer; avoid using a standard claw hammer, as the larger face can damage surrounding finish materials. No power tools are required or recommended for this fastener size. Always work on a stable surface and keep fingers clear of the strike zone when starting the tack by hand.
