1-inch powder-actuated drive pins with 1-inch washers, intended for installation with powder-actuated tools to fasten materials to dense concrete and structural-quality steel. The 1-inch washer increases bearing surface to reduce pull-through, and the pins are compatible with commonly used powder fastening systems; 100 pieces per box.
Project Ideas
Business
Fast Heavy-Mount Installation Service
Start a niche contracting service that specializes in fast, secure mounting of signage, handrails, conduit, and fixtures to concrete and structural steel using powder-actuated fasteners. Market to retail chains, offices, and property managers for same-day installs — emphasize reduced labor time compared with drilled anchors and offer warranty-backed installations.
Prepackaged Fixation Kits for Contractors
Assemble and sell contractor kits that include pre-cut brackets, a recommended quantity of 1" drive pins with washers, placement jigs, and quick-install instructions. Target framers, MEP contractors, and storefront installers who want a predictable, time-saving way to secure standard components to concrete without measuring and sourcing each part separately.
Training & Certification Workshops
Offer hands-on workshops and safety certification for powder-actuated tool use, covering tool selection, load/pin compatibility, PPE, and local code compliance. Pair training with starter packs of pins and washers and on-site consulting for businesses that need to upskill crews quickly — charge per attendee or provide corporate packages.
Niche E‑commerce Supply Store
Build an online storefront focused on powder-actuated fasteners and accessories — curated boxes (by material type and load), compatibility charts for common tools, bulk discounts, and how-to content. Differentiate with fast shipping, local pickup options, and value-added bundles (e.g., pins + washers + placement jig) aimed at small contractors and makers.
Creative
Concrete-mounted Floating Frames
Build heavy, ‘floating’ picture or textile frames that mount directly to masonry or poured concrete using the 1" drive pins and washers. The washer prevents pull-through for thin materials and lets you suspend large canvases, mirrors, or framed quilts with minimal visible hardware — use the washer heads as a deliberate design detail or conceal them with removable caps.
Industrial Mixed-Media Wall Sculptures
Create large-scale wall sculptures combining reclaimed metal, salvaged wood, and found objects, anchored directly to concrete or steel using the powder-actuated pins. The robust fastening lets you include heavier elements safely; leave washer heads exposed as an industrial aesthetic or overlap with metal plates as compositional elements.
Concrete-anchored Outdoor Planter & Seating Systems
Design modular planter boxes, bench seats, or bike racks that attach to existing concrete curbs, ledges, or walls with the 1" drive pins for a secure, low-profile installation. Use the increased bearing surface of the washers to prevent pull-through of thin boards and enable semi-permanent, vandal-resistant landscape features for patios and storefronts.
Pop-up Gallery/Exhibit Rapid-Mount System
Develop a rapid-install mounting system for pop-up galleries and shows: pre-measured brackets and channels that can be powder-actuated into concrete in minutes to support panels and display walls. This approach speeds setup and teardown, reduces drilling dust, and lets artists mount heavy work without complex anchors or contractors.
