🔩 30-Pound Steel Concrete Picture Hangers, 3-Pack by OOK Review

I do not completely condemn the product, but I would have liked a more detailed product description. I wanted to use them in the main precast concrete walls around the outside patio. When hit with a hammer, the pin would dig up bits of concrete instead of piercing it. It worked in a few spots, but in most cases I would use an adhesive product. However, the pins/hooks worked great in the mortar between the bricks.

You need to drill a pilot hole where you inserted the nail. The tip of the nail will break if you don't drill a pilot hole first. Unless you have a very weak mortar, I don't see how you can drive a nail into the mortar without a pilot hole. Everything I've read says you can just hammer it into brick or mortar and it will go in.

I love these! i need to buy more I'm so tired of drilling those concrete walls in Europe. These nails allowed me to conveniently hang very heavy African masks without fear of them falling off the wall. I only ordered a bag to try, but now I prefer it to drilling anchors any day of the week! This is a great inexpensive find for those who live in concrete houses. I also like that it comes in different sizes to handle different weights. I'm so glad I found this!
