Value Collection 78EGRFG1 Roofing Nail 11 Gauge 7/8 Inch

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 78EGRFG1 is an 11-gauge roofing nail designed for fastening roofing materials to wood substrates. It features a ring shank profile, which increases holding power compared to smooth-shank nails, reducing the risk of pull-through over time. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a galvanized finish, the 78EGRFG1 resists corrosion in exposed roofing applications. The overall length measures 7/8 inches, making it suited for lightweight roofing layers and felt underlayments. Licensed roofing contractors and general construction tradespeople are the primary installers of this fastener.

This nail is used in residential and light commercial roofing applications where a short, corrosion-resistant fastener is required. The 7/8-inch length and 11-gauge wire diameter make it appropriate for securing roofing felt, cap sheets, or thin sheathing layers. The ring shank design distributes load along the shank, improving withdrawal resistance in wood decking. It is sold as a single-unit package, and the quantity of nails per package is 5.
