Metallics MN114JS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size nail is the Metallics MN114JS joist hanger nail?
The MN114JS is a 1-1/4 inch, 9 gauge joist hanger nail. That short length and heavy 9 gauge shank are what hanger and strap manufacturers call for when the fastener has to seat fully in the nailing holes of a joist hanger without blowing through the far face of a nominal 2x member.
2) Can I use regular common or box nails in a joist hanger instead of these?
No. Joist hangers are specified for a particular nail diameter and length, and the MN114JS is sized for that duty at 1-1/4 inches and 9 gauge. A common nail of the same gauge is usually too long and will protrude through the member; a box or sinker nail is thinner than 9 gauge and reduces the shear capacity the hanger was rated on. Use a hanger nail of the size the hanger schedule calls for.
3) What part number do I order for Metallics 1-1/4 inch 9 gauge hanger nails?
Order Metallics MN114JS. That is the single manufacturer part number for the 1-1/4 inch, 9 gauge joist hanger nail, so there is no length or gauge option to pick when you order.
4) Are these hanger nails only for wood framing hardware, or can an electrician use them?
They are hanger nails first, meant for the nailing holes in joist hangers, straps and ties. Metallics carries the MN114JS in its electrical fastener line because the same short 1-1/4 inch, 9 gauge nail gets used on the job for anchoring hardware to framing. It is a structural-hardware nail, not a cable staple or a box-mounting nail.
