What Customers Are Saying

The steel cap nails are generally viewed as a reliable and affordable option for securing various materials like roofing felt, house wrap, insulation, and tarps. Many customers found the nails easy to use, with the plastic caps helping to prevent tearing. The nails were praised for their holding power and ability to withstand wind and weather. However, some customers noted the nails can bend or break easily, especially when used with harder materials. A few also mentioned issues with the plastic caps separating from the nails. Overall, the nails seem suitable for a variety of home improvement and construction projects, though their durability may vary depending on the application.

Stolen Goods

Would Not Recommend

I received a text saying my order was ready for pickup in one of the lockers and not 5 mins later I get a text saying thanks for picking up my order....I DID NOT Pick it up. In my opinion Lowes is going down fast! I just had to deal with an accounting issue that through a chat evidently cannot be resolves....it's 2026! All I ask is that charges to my CC have invoices to match! It dose not matter that you provide an invoice for the entire order...it's got to match!!

Nice product

Would Recommend

The nails are nice with the cap to hold down sheeting. However we will be returning because we chose the wrong size and it will poke through the other side of our sheathing.

Not great.

Would Not Recommend

These do what they are intended to do, but a certain percent, maybe up to 20% of them, rusted. They are supposed to be galvanized but the quality is not there. Also, in a box of 250 there are probably a dozen or so where the nails are inserted upside down or just through the side of the disc.
