Hillman Fasteners 461443 Plastic Cap Roofing Nails 185pk

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 461443 is a 185-piece box of 1.5-inch, 12-gauge plastic cap roofing nails designed for secure fastening of roofing underlayment, housewrap, and vapor barriers. Each nail features an electro galvanized finish under the Fasn-Rite product line, providing corrosion resistance suited to exterior roofing applications. The plastic cap distributes load across a wider surface area, reducing the risk of tearing through lightweight roofing materials. Roofing contractors and weatherization crews are the primary installers of this fastener type.

These plastic cap roofing nails are used in residential and light commercial roofing projects where underlayment, felt paper, or housewrap must be mechanically fastened before shingle or panel installation. The 1.5-inch shank length and 12-gauge wire diameter make them appropriate for fastening into standard roof decking. The electro galvanized coating helps resist rust in outdoor conditions. Each box contains 185 nails, and the supplier packages four boxes per unit of measure.

Installation Notes

Plastic cap roofing nails are installed by roofing contractors using a hammer or compatible cap nail gun. Power down or disconnect any pneumatic tool before clearing jams or changing fasteners. Follow local building codes and manufacturer underlayment guidelines for fastener spacing and overlap requirements. Do not use in applications requiring stainless or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners where corrosion resistance demands exceed electro galvanized ratings.
