Jcp Fixings Masonry Nails Light Shank - 40 X 2.5mm - Silver - Fjjbamnl040

The light shank design reduces the risk of splitting softer masonry materials, leading to a cleaner and more secure installation.

Each bag contains 20 masonry nails.

These light shank nails are best suited for light to medium-duty applications. For heavy structural loads, it is recommended to use specialized fixings or heavier shank nails.

They are ideal for brick, concrete, and mortar. The light shank is particularly useful for softer brick types.

The nails feature a silver finish that provides a degree of corrosion resistance, but they should be stored in a dry place to maximize their lifespan.

The specific product code Fjjbamnl040 indicates these are 40mm x 2.5mm nails.

Ensure you are not applying excessive force. For very hard masonry, consider pre-drilling a pilot hole or using a heavier shank nail.

Check if the masonry material is too soft or crumbly. Ensure the hole is clear of debris. Try a slightly longer or thicker nail if appropriate for the material.

This is rare but can occur with a worn hammer or excessive off-angle force. Ensure your hammer is in good condition and strike the nail head squarely.
