Mulberry 40465 0.062-Inch Steel Self-Nailing Quick-On Nail Plate, 3-7/16-Inch x 1-15/16-Inch

The Mulberry 40465 is a 0.062-Inch steel self-nailing Quick-On nail plate measuring 3-7/16-Inch x 1-15/16-Inch, designed to shield electrical wiring, cable, and conduit runs from accidental nail and screw punctures where they pass through wood framing members. Built from solid steel for durability, this nail plate features an integrated self-nailing Quick-On design that installs quickly over bored holes in studs and joists without pre-drilling or separate fasteners. Electricians and contractors rely on plates like the 40465 to keep NM cable, low-voltage wiring, and conduit runs protected once drywall, trim, or finish work closes up the framing bay. It is a straightforward, jobsite-ready solution for protecting wiring during rough-in and finish work on residential and commercial projects alike.

Mulberry 40465 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Mulberry 40465 nail plate cover a standard bored hole through a 2x4 stud?
The 40465 measures 3-7/16 x 1-15/16 inches, which is sized to cover a bored hole and the framing face around it on a nominal 2x4 stud (actual face width 1-1/2 inches). The plate runs long in one direction so it spans past the hole on both sides, and it is not so wide that it overhangs the stud edge and interferes with drywall sitting flat.
2) Do I need screws or a drill to install the Mulberry 40465 steel nail plate?
No separate fasteners and no pre-drilling. The 40465 is a self-nailing Quick-On plate with integrated nailing points, so you set it over the bored hole and drive it home. Nothing else ships with it because nothing else is needed.
3) How thick is the steel on the Mulberry 40465, and is it enough to stop a drywall screw or finish nail?
Steel thickness is 0.062 inch, roughly 16 gauge, and the plate is there specifically to resist nails and screws driven into the framing face after rough-in. That is the function it is built for: a fastener driven into the stud hits the plate rather than the cable behind it.
4) When does an electrician actually have to install a nail plate like the Mulberry 40465?
The common case is a bored hole in a stud or joist where the cable sits close to the framing edge instead of centered, so a drywall or trim fastener could reach it. Plates like the 40465 go on during rough-in, before drywall, trim, or finish work closes the bay. Inspectors look for them on penetrations where the cable is not set back far enough from the face.
5) Can I use the Mulberry 40465 over low-voltage and data cable, or is it only for Romex?
Either. The 40465 is used over NM (Romex) runs, low-voltage and data cable, and conduit passing through studs and joists. The plate does not care what is in the hole, it just shields whatever passes through from fasteners driven into the framing.
6) Is the Mulberry 40465 only for residential wood framing, or can it go on commercial jobs?
Both. It is a wood-framing plate, and the described use covers residential and commercial new construction as well as remodel work where cable or conduit crosses studs and joists. It is not a metal-stud grommet or bushing, so it is not the part for steel framing penetrations.
7) What is the Mulberry part number for the 3-7/16 by 1-15/16 inch steel nail plate?
Model and manufacturer part number 40465, from Mulberry. That single number covers the 0.062-inch steel self-nailing Quick-On plate at 3-7/16 x 1-15/16 inches, so there are no size or finish options to specify when ordering.
