Value Collection 6CUTMAS5 Masonry Nail 6D 2 in Cut Shank

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6CUTMAS5 is a 6D cut-shank masonry nail designed for fastening into concrete, block, and masonry surfaces. At 2 inches overall length, it delivers the penetration depth needed for light structural and general fastening tasks in masonry substrates. Constructed from Grade 2 steel, this nail provides reliable holding strength in demanding trade applications. Cut-shank geometry increases friction and pullout resistance compared to smooth-shank fasteners, making it a preferred choice for masonry work where secure, lasting fastening is required. Suitable for hand-driven installation in concrete, brick, and CMU block.

This masonry nail is used in residential and commercial construction and renovation projects where fasteners must penetrate or anchor into hard masonry substrates. Typical applications include sole-plate attachment to concrete slabs, furring strip installation on block or concrete walls, and general masonry anchoring tasks. It is a standard choice for carpenters, general contractors, and tradespeople working with concrete forms, block walls, or slab-on-grade construction.

Key Features

• Cut-shank profile increases pullout resistance in masonry and concrete
• 6D penny size — 2 inches overall length for general masonry fastening depth
• Grade 2 steel construction for consistent hardness and drive performance
• Suitable for hand-driven installation with a masonry hammer
• Applicable across concrete, CMU block, and brick substrates

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6D cut-shank masonry nail for general fastening applications in concrete, brick, and concrete masonry unit (CMU) block substrates.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by carpenters or general tradespeople using a masonry hammer or hand-drive tool rated for cut nails. Always wear appropriate eye protection when driving masonry nails, as spalling and nail fragments can be ejected on impact. Pre-drilling a pilot hole may be required in dense or cured concrete to reduce the risk of cracking the substrate or bending the nail. Follow applicable building codes for fastener spacing and load requirements in structural applications.
