Metallics NP401 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a nail plate like the Metallics NP401 used for on a rough-in?
The NP401 is a galvanized steel protection plate that goes over a stud or plate where wire or pipe passes through, so a drywall or trim nail driven later cannot reach the conductor or tubing. It is 18 gauge steel and measures 1-1/2 x 3 inches, which covers a single bored hole in a 2x4 stud face.
2) Are the Metallics NP401 nail plates Buy American and ARRA compliant for a government or institutional job?
The NP401 is listed as both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant, which is what most public-funded and institutional specs ask for on rough-in protection hardware. Country of origin is listed as multiple.
3) How many nail plates come in a box of Metallics NP401?
They ship 250 to a box, and 250 count is the order minimum, so this is a contractor-quantity pack rather than a handful for one opening. The full box runs 15 lbs.
4) Are the stated dimensions on Metallics nail plates exact?
Metallics states that dimensions on all its nail plates and straps are approximate, so treat 1-1/2 x 3 inches as nominal. If you are covering a hole bored tight to the edge of a stud, allow for that tolerance or step up to a wider plate.
5) Can I get a nail plate in a different size or gauge than the NP401?
Yes. Metallics offers other sizes, gauges and quantities of nail plates and straps by request, so if 1-1/2 x 3 inches in 18 gauge does not cover your bore or your inspector wants heavier stock, a different plate in the same family can be sourced.
6) Will an 18 gauge nail plate hold up in a damp or exterior wall?
The plate is steel with a galvanized finish, which is the standard corrosion protection for concealed framing work including damp locations behind exterior sheathing. It appears grey. Galvanized steel is not stainless, so for direct weather exposure or corrosive environments it is not the right pick.
