Value Collection 10CUTMAS1 Masonry Nail 10D 3 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 10CUTMAS1 is a cut-shank masonry nail designed for fastening into concrete, block, and masonry substrates. At 10D penny size and 3 inches overall length, it provides strong mechanical hold in hard materials where standard wire nails would fail. The cut shank geometry displaces material rather than splitting it, creating a tight friction fit. Grade 2 steel construction delivers the hardness needed to drive into masonry without bending or deforming under hammer impact. These nails are a standard choice for framing sills to concrete, securing furring strips, and similar structural fastening tasks on masonry surfaces.

This nail is suited for residential and light commercial construction applications where wood or engineered framing members must be anchored directly to concrete slabs, block walls, or similar masonry bases. Typical uses include bottom plate fastening, furring strip installation, and form work anchoring. The 10D size is a commonly specified penny size for this category of work, fitting standard nail gun magazines designed for cut masonry nails or driven by a steel framing hammer.

Key Features

• 10D penny size at 3 inches overall length for standard masonry fastening depth
• Cut shank profile increases holding power in concrete and block
• Grade 2 steel hardness resists bending on impact with hard substrates
• Compatible with hand-driving and cut-nail-compatible pneumatic tools
• Single-unit packaging allows jobsite-level quantity control

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-specification masonry nail for use with concrete, block, and similar masonry substrates in residential and commercial construction applications.

Installation Notes

Masonry nails are installed by qualified carpenters or general contractors using a steel framing hammer or a pneumatic nailer rated for cut masonry nails. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in dense concrete can reduce nail deflection and improve placement accuracy. Always wear appropriate eye protection when driving masonry nails, as fragments can dislodge from the substrate. Follow applicable building code requirements for fastener spacing and embedment depth when anchoring structural members to masonry.
