Nylon Hammer Fixings – Carbon Steel – Quick Masonry Use

Product Overview

Our Nylon Hammer Fixings feature a 5mm shank diameter and 30mm length, perfect for rapid and reliable installation into masonry, concrete, or blockwork. The fixings combine a high-strength nylon plug with a zinc-plated drive nail, eliminating the need for screw tightening and ensuring a fast installation process.

This 5 x 30mm variant is ideal for light-duty applications such as securing lightweight battens, conduit, trunking, and profiles. It is perfect for repetitive fixing tasks where speed and efficiency are paramount.
