Hillman Fasteners 461406 Cut Masonry Nails 8x2.5 in

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461406 is an 8-gauge cut masonry nail measuring 2.5 inches in length, manufactured from tempered and hardened plain steel. The flat rectangular head provides solid bearing surface against masonry substrates, resisting pull-through under load. These nails are cut-style, meaning they feature a tapered, wedge-shaped shank that reduces splitting and improves grip in concrete block, brick mortar joints, and similar masonry materials. Licensed masonry contractors and general tradespeople typically install these in wood-to-masonry fastening applications where driven-nail anchoring is required.

These cut masonry nails are suited for attaching wood framing, furring strips, and sill plates directly to concrete block, brick, or mortar. The tempered steel construction resists bending on impact, which is critical when driving into hard masonry surfaces. Sold by the box, this package contains 12 units, making it appropriate for moderate-volume fastening tasks on residential and light commercial projects.

Installation Notes

Cut masonry nails are installed by general contractors, carpenters, and masonry tradespeople using a hammer or powder-actuated tool appropriate for the substrate. Always wear eye protection when driving nails into masonry, as fragments can dislodge. Follow applicable building codes, including local residential and commercial construction standards, for fastener spacing and load requirements. Do not use in applications requiring corrosion resistance without verifying material compatibility with the environment.
