Metallics M50016 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size drive pin is the Metallics M50016, and how many come in a jar?
The M50016 is a knurled-shank drive pin with a .300 inch head, a 5/8 inch knurled shank length, and a .145 inch shank diameter. It ships in a jar of 100 pins.
2) How deep will the M50016 drive pin anchor into concrete?
Embedment is limited by the 5/8 inch knurled shank, so plan on no more than about 5/8 inch of penetration into the base material minus whatever thickness of strap or bracket you are fastening through. If you need to hold through a thicker fixture or want deeper embedment in concrete, step up to a longer-shank pin rather than this one.
3) What is a knurled drive pin used for on an electrical job?
Knurled drive pins like the Metallics M50016 are driven into masonry or concrete to fasten light items such as conduit straps, box brackets, and furring, with the knurling on the 5/8 inch shank providing the grip in the hole. They are an anchor-type fastener, so the pin itself does the holding - no expansion shield or plug is involved.
4) Will a .145 shank drive pin work in my powder-actuated tool?
The M50016 has a .145 inch shank diameter and a .300 inch head, which is the common head-and-shank geometry for hand-drive pin tools and standard drive pin holders. Match the pin diameter to your tool's pin guide: a holder sized for .145 shank pins takes this fastener, one set up for a different diameter will not seat it correctly.
5) Is the Metallics M50016 sold loose or in a bulk container for shop stock?
It comes as a jar of 100 pins, which is the format most electrical contractors keep on the truck or on a shelf for strap and bracket work. One model, M50016, so there is nothing else to specify when ordering.
