Questions and Answers for undefined

A:  These Grip-Rite nails are used when installing metal or fiberglass roofing.

A:  I do not believe so. The nails I purchased came in a one pound box. These nails are used for Spanish ceramic roof tiles that are driven in one at a time.

A:  The approximate count per carton is 120

A:  Greetings Bob, I do not see why you cannot use these nails on vinyl siding. I like them because of their rink shank. The 1-3/4 gives them plenty of bite. I use them to secure Jame Hardi Board to our home because of the high winds. I predrill every hole about two sizes under and remove the rubber seal before I install the nails. Hope this helps.

A:  If the heads stay on they can be pulled out with a modified nail pulling bar and shim block but the problem is that the heads break off most of the new nails even while driving them in, let alone trying to pull them out.

A:  Hello Chris, Well, you could use a cats claw to remove them. But once you nail them in, they are there for the duration. Hope this helps.

A:  Yes, they can be removed just like any other nail.

A:  Yes just search for Ring Shank Nails.

A:  No, not to my knowledge. I actually use these nails to secure Hardi Plank siding to my house. I remove the neoprene washer. The 1-3/4" is perfect for attaching the siding to my house. You can remove the washer with a pair of small wire cutters.

A:  Greetings Roof Repair Techs, Just remove the washers. They come relative easy. Hope this helps.

A:  Hi Dee. We do not carry this nail in one inch or 1 1/4 inch lengths. Thanks for your question.

A:  These nails are intended to be used while installing metal roofing. The neoprene washer on these nails helps to ensure a seal between the nail and the metal roof to prevent leaking. To order hot-dipped roofing nails for use with asphalt shingles, we recommend you go into a local Home Depot and order them through the special services desk. Thank you for your great question, and have a great day!

A:  Greetings Bill, You could use these nails for asphalt shingles only if you remove the rubber washer. These nails have more surface area that staples. Hope this helps.

A:  The Neoprene washer acts as a gasket for the nail on a metal and/or tile roof. Asphalt shingles create the seal on their own. No gasket is needed no matter the slope. That being said the slope of the roof will determine what type of roofing material you should be using. If your slope is anything under 4:12 you should not be using shingles. For asphalt shingles, you just need ring shank roofing nails without the neoprene washer.
