Overview

The Minerallac 60612J is a 3/8" x 2-1/2" long lag screw shield designed for mortar joint applications in masonry fastening. Manufactured by Minerallac (Cully sub-brand), this zinc alloy anchor provides a secure mechanical lock when paired with 3/8" lag screws in brick, block, or concrete substrates. Each jar contains 50 units, with master cartons of 300 for bulk purchasing. Key specifications include a 5/8" drill size requirement, 3" minimum embedment depth, and no additional finish for corrosion resistance in standard environments. Unlike light-duty anchors, this shield resists temperature fluctuations and rust, making it suitable for both solid and hollow base materials. The product is not UL-listed, Buy America Act compliant, or RoHS compliant, and carries a California Proposition 65 warning for lead exposure. Ideal for structural applications requiring flush or countersunk installation, the 60612J expands upon screw insertion to create a tight grip in mortar joints. Common uses include securing fixtures, conduit supports, or equipment mounts to masonry surfaces. For comparison, Minerallac also offers 1/4" (60604J) and 1/2" (60616) variants with adjusted dimensions and embedment depths.
