Metal/Plastic Cap Nails
Metal cap nails are commonly used in roofing and underlayment applications where extra holding power is needed. Featuring a large-diameter metal washer beneath the nail head, they provide a secure grip that helps prevent tear-through in high-wind conditions. Ideal for attaching synthetic underlayments, roofing felts, and insulation board, metal cap nails offer enhanced strength and long-term durability, especially in demanding environments.
Plastic cap nails are designed for fast, efficient installation of roofing underlayments and house wraps. Their wide plastic caps distribute pressure over a larger area, reducing the risk of tearing or puncturing delicate materials. Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, these nails are an economical solution that helps maintain material integrity during and after installation, especially in windy or damp conditions.
