Hillman Fasteners 461402 Fluted Masonry Nails 9x2 Gauge

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461402 is a box of 12 fluted masonry nails designed for fastening into concrete, block, and masonry substrates. Each nail is manufactured from tempered and hardened plain steel, providing the hardness required to penetrate dense masonry without bending. The fluted shank increases holding power by displacing material as the nail is driven, and the flat head seats flush against the work surface. At gauge 9 by 2 inches in length, these nails suit a range of light-to-medium masonry fastening tasks encountered in both residential and commercial construction.

These masonry nails are used wherever a fastener must be driven directly into concrete, cinder block, mortar joints, or similar hard substrates. Typical applications include securing wood sill plates, furring strips, conduit straps, or framing members to masonry walls and floors. They are commonly installed by carpenters, general contractors, electricians, and plumbers who need a quick mechanical attachment to a masonry surface without anchors or adhesives. The 12-nail box format suits job-site use and small-quantity needs.

Installation Notes

Masonry nails are typically installed by carpenters or trade professionals using a hammer or a powder-actuated tool rated for masonry fastening. Always wear safety glasses when driving masonry nails, as fragments can dislodge upon impact. Inspect each nail prior to driving — do not reuse bent or damaged nails. Follow applicable building codes, including IBC requirements, for fastener spacing and embedment depth in structural applications.
