8d x 2-1/2 in. Ring-Shank Roofing Nails, 304 Stainless Steel
Secure roofing materials with 8d x 2-1/2 in. Ring-Shank Roofing Nails made from 304 stainless steel. Designed for roofing applications, these nails feature an annular ring shank that provides greater pull-out resistance than a smooth-shank nail. The large, flat head offers increased bearing surface to help hold roofing materials firmly in place.
Annular Ring Shank for Improved Holding Power
The annular ring shank features raised rings along the nail shaft that help grip the surrounding material and resist withdrawal. This design provides dependable holding power for roofing installations where secure fastening is essential.
304 Stainless Steel Construction
Made from 304 stainless steel, these roofing nails offer excellent corrosion resistance for many outdoor applications. They are suitable for general exterior use but are not recommended for seaside, poolside, or salt-spray environments, including locations within approximately 2 miles of saltwater. For these highly corrosive conditions, 316 stainless steel roofing nails are recommended.
Features and Benefits
- 304 stainless steel: Provides excellent corrosion resistance for many exterior roofing applications.
- Annular ring shank: Helps increase pull-out resistance for a more secure hold.
- Large, flat head: Provides additional bearing surface to help secure roofing materials firmly.
- Longer nail design: Suitable for applications requiring additional penetration, including curved Spanish roof tiles and thicker slate.
Roofing Nail Installation Tips
When fastening slate roofing, select a nail length that allows the nail to pass through the slate and the underlying roofing material while providing adequate penetration into the supporting structure. As a general guideline, double the slate thickness and add 1 inch to determine the required nail length.
