What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these cap nails for reliability in roofing and weatherproofing applications. Most highlight their effectiveness securing roofing felt, tar paper, and housewrap, with plastic caps preventing tearing and providing weather-resistant holds. Many report successful use beyond roofing—securing tarps, foam insulation, and screens—noting they are simple and easy to use. Reviewers frequently describe them as durable, sharp, and great value with strong repurchase intent. A few reported nails bent easily or were hard to drive straight, and some mentioned rare packaging inconsistencies, but these isolated issues barely detract from overall satisfaction. Most consider them reliable and effective.

Fence cant pull through these

Would Recommend

They do their job, at least so far, pretty well. I used them to secure a flexible garden type fence to wooden post, that was pre-set. I had it originally held on with regular nails, but these with the cap holds better. Less chance of the fence pulling through like possible with regular nails. Seems to be holding fence secure as it should for now. Can't really say alot about nails. Either they work, or they don't, and these do

Works

Would Recommend

Perfect length for hand installing by putting 2 fingers underneath until driving has begun. Plastic is flexible and does not crack no matter what you do to it yet hold the plastic sheeting perfectly.
