Value Collection 212TFMAS1 Masonry Nail 9 Gauge

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 212TFMAS1 is a fluted-shank masonry nail designed for fastening into concrete, block, and masonry substrates. At 9 gauge with a 2.5-inch overall length, it provides the shank diameter and penetration depth needed for solid anchorage in hard base materials. The fluted shank increases holding power by displacing material as the nail is driven, reducing the likelihood of pull-out over time. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with an uncoated finish, this nail is suited for dry interior applications where corrosion resistance is not a primary requirement. Installers in the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC trades reach for masonry nails when securing furring strips, conduit straps, or framing anchors to poured or block foundations.

This nail is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial construction where fastening to masonry or concrete is required. Common applications include attaching wood sleepers to concrete slabs, securing blocking to block walls, and anchoring strapping or brackets in mechanical rooms and utility spaces. The 2.5-inch OAL provides adequate embedment for most light-duty masonry fastening tasks in these settings.

Key Features

• Fluted shank design increases pull-out resistance in masonry and concrete
• 9 gauge diameter provides stiffness for direct-drive installation
• 2.5-inch overall length suits standard light-duty masonry fastening depth requirements
• Grade 2 steel construction delivers consistent hardness for driving into hard substrates
• Uncoated finish appropriate for dry, interior applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard masonry nail for use in concrete, block, and similar hard masonry substrates in light-duty residential and commercial fastening applications.

Installation Notes

Masonry nails are driven by a hammer or pneumatic tool rated for masonry fasteners. Eye and face protection must be worn during installation, as nail and substrate fragments can become projectiles. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in harder concrete can reduce the risk of nail deflection or breakage. Uncoated fasteners should not be used in wet or exterior environments where corrosion could compromise holding strength.
