With precise engineering for roofing applications, you can rely on our collated roofing nails to offer the following features:

  • Collations for efficient use.
  • Weather and corrosion resistance.

Additional Features

Collated nails have two main angles:

  • 0⁰: Standard straight nails are sufficient for many applications. They’re best for projects with many straight-nailing applications.
  • 15⁰: These nails are generally ideal for use in tight workspaces. 

They may have one of two treatments, platings or coatings:

  • Electrogalvanized: This treatment improves corrosion resistance.
  • Hot dip: This coating is thicker than electrogalvanized coatings and offers better corrosion protection.

Roofing Tips

When using collated nails for roofing installations, these tips can improve your effectiveness:

  • Roofing nails are for use with shingles rather than metal roofing. Metal roofing requires screws.
  • Before starting your roofing project, check local requirements. Some regions require at least six nails per shingle, while others require four. 
  • Choose the correct nail angle for your project to simplify the process.
  • Start with the lowest layer of shingles and work your way up.
  • Ensure that each layer hooks properly into the layer below it.
  • Install shingles with nails about one inch from each edge so the next row covers the nails.

FAQs

Clear up some of your questions about coil and collated roofing nails with our answers to frequently asked questions.

Which is better, paper or plastic collated nails?

Paper and plastic collations are similar in terms of performance. However, paper collations may disintegrate if they get wet, so that’s something to consider when working in areas with high moisture content. Wear eye protection when working with plastic-collated framing nails since plastic pieces may sometimes eject from the nail gun at high speed. Watch out for flagging since plastic pieces may get caught under the nail heads.

Why use collated roofing nails?

Collated roofing nails offer significant benefits, including increased efficiency, improved accuracy and reduced waste. Most collated nails for roofing installations are also corrosion- and weather-resistant.

Are electrogalvanized nails better than hot-dipped nails for roofing?

Hot-dipped nails are better for roofing since they offer more comprehensive protection against corrosion and weather exposure. Electrogalvanized nails provide good coverage but not nearly as good as hot-dipped nails.
