Value Collection 112ATUL1 Underlayment Nail 13 Gauge 1.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 112ATUL1 is a 13-gauge underlayment nail designed for securing roofing underlayment, felt paper, and similar sheet materials to wood substrates. At 1.5 inches overall length, this nail features an annular thread shank that resists pull-through and withdrawal far better than a smooth shank. It is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with an uncoated finish. Roofing contractors and general carpenters reach for this fastener when installing underlayment prior to shingle or tile application. The annular ring pattern along the shank locks into wood fibers mechanically, making it a reliable choice where holding power matters on sloped or exposed roof decks.

This nail is suited for residential and light commercial roofing applications where underlayment must be held flat and secure against wind and foot traffic during installation. It is commonly used with felt paper, synthetic underlayment, and similar membrane materials stapled or nailed to wood sheathing. Roofers driving these by hand or with a cap nailer will find the 13-gauge diameter provides adequate clinch strength without splitting thin or composite sheathing panels.

Key Features

• Annular thread shank delivers superior withdrawal resistance compared to smooth shank nails
• 13-gauge wire diameter balances holding power with minimal substrate splitting
• 1.5-inch overall length sized for standard underlayment fastening into roof sheathing
• Grade 2 steel construction for consistent hardness and shank integrity
• Uncoated finish suitable for dry or temporarily exposed roofing applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or jobsite supply nail compatible with standard underlayment fastening applications on wood roof sheathing and subfloor decking.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by roofing contractors or carpenters using a hammer or appropriate pneumatic cap nailer rated for 13-gauge nails. Verify nailer chuck and driver compatibility before loading. Follow local building codes and manufacturer underlayment installation guidelines for fastener spacing and pattern. Do not use uncoated nails in permanently wet or chemically treated wood environments where corrosion resistance is required.
