Our Line of the Best Masonry Nails

True to our commitment to be your trusted partner in delivering innovative and reliable solutions, we provide high-grade masonry nails. 

Stub Nail 

From 5/8 inches to 2 ½ inches, our stub masonry nails are versatile and perfect for projects like fastening pipe conduits and corner beads. These concrete masonry nails have a large countersunk head that is flush with the surface. Their smooth, heavy-duty shank makes for easy drivability, while their electrogalvanized corrosion-resistant coating gives the nails longer viability. 

Cut Flooring Nails

Contractors and DIYers can use the cut flooring nails to secure hardwood flooring onto masonry subfloors. These nails even mimic a similar wedge shape. However, cut flooring nails have a few exceptional structural differences that make them perfect masonry nails for concrete. These nails have a four-sided head that provides greater holding quality. This design makes it ideal for additional projects like joining framing and furring strips to bricks or blocks.

Fluted Masonry Nails

Fluted masonry nails can secure flooring to soft masonry like uncured concrete. They can also be used in other applications where a secure hold in soft masonry materials is required. These heat-tempered nails are exceptionally strong, and their fluted shank makes installation easier. Our high-grade fluted masonry nails use a steel finish to provide corrosion protection and easy cleaning. 

Metal Round Cap Masonry Nail

The Grip-Rite® metal round cap masonry nail helps you connect your foaming insulation and flashing to exterior surfaces. This masonry cap has a diamond point for easier surface penetration without cracking. As mainly an exterior masonry nail, we use an electrogalvanized finish to protect it from weather and ensure its optimized performance for longer.

FAQs

Find answers to some of the most common questions about our masonry nails.

What Are Masonry Nails?

Masonry nails are crafted from hardened steel and can penetrate hard and brittle materials like concrete and stone without breaking. They are also tempered, which increases strength and durability. 

What Are Masonry Nails Used for?

A cut flooring nail would be perfect for your flooring jobs, while the fluted masonry nail would be ideal for attaching furring strips to soft masonry. However, the metal round cap nail is your best bet if you are doing exterior work like attaching flashing.

Do Masonry Nails Use Nailers?

Most standard nailers are not strong enough to push nails into masonry. As a contractor, you can invest in a powder-actuated or gas-actuated nailer, which should increase efficiency. But as a DIYer, you can drill a pilot hole with a hammer drill and then hammer in the nail.
