In the world of metal roofing, the profile of your fastener is just as important as its strength. Our Pancake Head Screws, distributed by A1A Wholesale Supply, are the industry standard for installing concealed-fastener metal roof clips. The flat, thin head sits nearly flush with the clip, ensuring that the finished metal panel can slide or snap over the clip without creating an unsightly “bump” or “dimple” in the metal.

These #10-9 screws are built for the toughest environments. They are treated with a multi-layer Ruspert coating, which provides elite salt-spray resistance and prevents galvanic corrosion between the screw and the metal clip. The specialized T-17 point acts as a miniature drill bit, clearing out wood fibers to prevent splitting in the deck while allowing for a fast, one-handed start. With Miami-Dade Approval, these screws meet the most rigorous wind-uplift and structural standards in the United States.
