Hillman Fasteners 122628 Brass Escutcheon Pin 3/4in 18 Gauge

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 122628 is a solid brass escutcheon pin designed for fastening thin materials where a clean, finished appearance is required. At 3/4 inches in length and 18 gauge diameter, these small-shank pins drive cleanly into wood, leather, and soft substrates without splitting. Solid brass construction resists corrosion and provides a bright, decorative finish suited for trim work, hardware installation, and finish carpentry applications. Each package contains 6 pins and is sold by the each unit of measure. Tradespeople and finish carpenters reach for escutcheon pins when securing escutcheon plates, name plates, or decorative hardware where a brad or finish nail would be too large.

Escutcheon pins are commonly used in residential and light commercial finish work, cabinetry, furniture repair, and hardware mounting. The 18 gauge shank is sized to pass through the pre-drilled holes found in standard escutcheon plates and decorative trim hardware. These pins are also used in upholstery, leather goods, and hobby woodworking where a fine, corrosion-resistant fastener is needed. Installation requires no power tools — a tack hammer or small mallet is sufficient for most applications.

Installation Notes

Escutcheon pins are installed by finish carpenters, cabinetmakers, and general tradespeople using a tack hammer or small mallet. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in hardwood or dense substrates is recommended to prevent bending the shank. No power tools are required. Handle with care to avoid deforming the soft brass shank during installation.
