Hillman Fasteners 461501 Masonry Nails 3in 9 Gauge 1lb

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461501 is a bright cut masonry nail designed for fastening into concrete, block, and mortar without the need for pre-drilling in many light-duty applications. Measuring 3 inches in length and manufactured to a 9-gauge wire diameter, these nails are cut from hardened steel to withstand the driving force required when working with masonry substrates. Sold by the pound, this SKU packages 12 units per box. They are a standard choice for framers, masons, and general contractors who need a reliable, cost-effective fastener for attaching wood plates, furring strips, and similar materials directly to masonry surfaces.

These masonry nails are suited for residential and light commercial construction applications. Typical uses include securing bottom plates to concrete slab floors, attaching wood nailers to concrete or block walls, and fastening furring strips in basement finishing work. The bright finish is appropriate for interior or protected installations where corrosion exposure is minimal. These nails are driven with a hand hammer or pneumatic hammer rated for cut masonry nails.

Installation Notes

Cut masonry nails are installed by licensed contractors and experienced tradespeople using a hand maul or a pneumatic tool rated specifically for masonry nails. Always wear appropriate eye protection, as masonry nails can fracture or deflect on contact with aggregate. Drive the nail perpendicular to the surface to avoid splitting the nail shank. Consult applicable building codes for required fastener schedules and embedment depths on structural connections.
