Fabricated from 18-gauge galvanized steel, this stud guard installs directly over the face of a drilled or notched stud to shield the pipe or cable behind it. A self-nailing feature allows the plate to be driven into the framing without separate fasteners, speeding up installation. Plumbers and electricians rely on this type of plate wherever code requires protection of concealed runs near the framing surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nail plate is suited for residential and light commercial framing applications where copper, PEX, CPVC, or low-voltage wiring passes through studs or joists within 1.25 inches of the framing face. It also adds structural reinforcement to studs that have been notched or bored, helping restore rigidity to the framing member after cutting. Inspectors commonly require these plates before drywall is closed in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSelf-nailing design drives directly into wood framing without separate hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18-gauge galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in damp framing environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReinforces notched or bored studs to restore structural integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProtects pipes and wiring from drywall screws and finish nails after wall closure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9-inch length covers standard pipe and cable runs through single framing members\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard OEM-style stud guard nail plate for residential and commercial wood-framed wall and floor assemblies where pipe or wiring protection is required by plumbing or electrical code.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNail plates are typically installed by a licensed plumber or electrician before the framing inspection and prior to drywall close-in. Position the plate flush over the notch or bore hole so it fully covers the pipe or cable, then drive it into the stud face using a hammer. No power tools are required. Verify local code requirements under the IPC or NEC for minimum plate thickness and placement rules before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18-gauge galvanized steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.02 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.50 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\/Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.50 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: OATEY\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 33932\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OATEY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52055511957810,"sku":"33932","price":42.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/08688edb5b2489bbcd5ccd476719b2b3.jpg?v=1790037580","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/oatey-33932-nail-plate-9-inch-stud-guard","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
