In roofing, the security of the shingles against wind uplift and the long-term integrity of the fasteners are paramount. 1-3/4″ Hot Dip Galvanized Ring Shank Coil Roofing Nails (7,200 Count), available through A1A Wholesale Supply, are specifically designed to meet these challenges. These are high-performance fasteners that combine key features for a reliable and durable roofing system.
The 1-3/4 inch length is a standard and widely accepted size for fastening most asphalt shingles to common plywood or OSB roof decking. The defining feature of these nails is the ring shank (annular thread). The series of rings along the shank creates a significantly stronger grip in the wood fibers compared to smooth shank nails, providing superior withdrawal resistance. This is particularly crucial in high-wind zones where building codes often mandate enhanced fastening to prevent shingles from detaching.
The Hot Dip Galvanized (HDG) finish provides the steel nail with a thick, protective coating of zinc. This process ensures excellent corrosion resistance, effectively guarding against rust and extending the lifespan of the fastener in typical outdoor weather conditions. HDG coatings commonly meet stringent standards such as ASTM A153 and provide a G90 coating weight, which are frequently required by building codes for exterior fasteners to ensure long-term performance and prevent rust stains on the roofing material.
These roofing nails are coil collated, typically with a 15-degree wire collation, making them compatible with the majority of pneumatic coil roofing nailers used by roofing professionals. This allows for very fast and efficient installation, significantly increasing productivity on the job site compared to hand nailing. Each nail commonly features a 0.120-inch shank diameter (approximately 11 gauge) and a full round head or large flat head (around 3/8″ diameter). The large head provides substantial bearing surface to firmly hold down roofing materials.
Common applications include the installation of asphalt shingles on both new construction and re-roofing projects, particularly in areas with specific wind resistance requirements. They are also suitable for fastening roofing felt, underlayment, and insulation board.
Supplied in a large box containing 7,200 nails (7.2M), this quantity is ideal for efficiently completing substantial roofing areas, ensuring contractors have a readily available supply. The nails are typically organized into multiple smaller coils within the box for convenient loading into nailer magazines.
