A simple, no-nonsense fixing point for running cable ties directly off masonry, brick, block or concrete surfaces. Hammer in, loop through, job done. Saves drilling and plugging for every single cable run.
The masonry cable tie mount is one of those small items that earns its place in your bag very quickly. You get a fixing point for your cable ties directly into brick, block or concrete without needing to drill, plug and screw every single point along a run. The nail-in pin drives straight into the masonry, the mount sits flush, and you thread your cable tie through the slot. That’s the whole process.
It’s the kind of thing you don’t think about until you’re thirty metres into a cable run and realising that each individual fixing is costing you time. Once you’ve used a masonry cable tie mount on a job, you stop going back to the slower method.
Where Masonry Cable Tie Mounts Actually Earn Their Keep
These are used anywhere cables need to be routed tidily along a masonry surface. Alarm cable, data cable, lighting runs, speaker cable in commercial installs, or any low-voltage wiring running along a wall in a factory, warehouse, garage or plant room. Electricians use them. Security installers use them. Anyone running cable across brickwork regularly will have a bag of these on the van.
They work equally well on internal blockwork walls in new builds and on external brickwork where you need a quick, secure route for armoured or conduit-supported cable. On a long cable run, the time saved per fixing point adds up fast.
Fitting Takes Seconds
No rawlplug, no screw, no setting time. You position the mount, drive the pin into the joint or face of the masonry with a hammer, pull your cable tie through the slot, and move on to the next one. The head sits flat and the whole fixing stays put. On softer materials like aerated block, the pin goes in even easier.
At this price point and with next day delivery available, it makes sense to keep a good stock in the van. Running out of something this small on a long install job is exactly the kind of avoidable delay nobody needs.
Pro Tip: Aim for the mortar joint rather than the brick or block face where possible, the pin drives in more easily and holds reliably without cracking the masonry surface.
Masonry cable tie mounts are used by electricians, security installers, data and telecoms engineers, and general contractors for routing cable neatly along brick, block and concrete surfaces. Common applications include alarm and detection cable runs in commercial buildings, lighting cable in warehouses and plant rooms, speaker and AV cable in large spaces, and general low-voltage wiring across any masonry surface where a clean, secure fixing point is needed without significant groundwork.

Key Features
Nail-in pin fixing, no rawlplug needed
Slot accepts standard cable ties
Flush-mount head
Fast installation, no drill required
Suitable for internal and external use
Not suitable for: Not suitable for fixing into timber, plasterboard or steel. Not recommended for heavy cable bundles or armoured cable where a more substantial bracket is required.
Position the mount where you want your cable fixing point on the masonry surface. Drive the nail-in pin firmly into the mortar joint or masonry face using a hammer until the mount sits flat. Thread a standard cable tie through the slot in the head, wrap it around your cable or bundle, and pull it tight as normal.
Mark your cable route and space your fixing points at regular intervals along the masonry surface
Position the masonry cable tie mount at each fixing point with the pin against the surface
Drive the pin into the mortar joint or masonry face using a hammer until the head sits flush
Thread a standard cable tie through the slot on the mount head
Loop the cable tie around your cable or cable bundle and pull tight
Trim the excess cable tie tail flush with the lock head
Do I need to drill a hole first before fitting these?
No. The nail-in pin is designed to be driven directly into mortar joints or masonry surfaces with a hammer. No pre-drilling, plugging or screwing is needed, which is the main advantage over traditional clip-and-screw fixings.
What size cable ties do these work with?
The slot is designed to accept standard cable ties. Most common widths up to around 4-5mm will fit comfortably. If you're using wider heavy-duty ties, check the slot width against your tie before committing to a full run.
Can these be used outside on external brickwork?
Yes, they can be used on external masonry surfaces. For prolonged outdoor exposure, particularly in wet or coastal environments, consider whether your cable ties are UV-stabilised and weather-rated, as the tie itself is typically the weak link in long-term outdoor installations.
The cable tie masonry mount consists of a flat mounting head with an integrated cable tie slot and a hardened nail-in pin. The pin is designed to penetrate brick, block and concrete or mortar joints without pre-drilling. The head profile keeps the fixing low-profile against the wall surface once driven home.
