Abstract

This specification covers nails, spikes, staples, and other fasteners driven by hand tool, power tool, or mechanical device in single or multiple strikes and are positioned by hand, tool, or machine. The driven fasteners are classified as type I: nails (NL); type II: cut nails (CN); type III: spikes (SP); and type IV: staples (ST). Materials shall be tested and the individual types shall conform to the material requirements and physical properties, such as ductility, tensile strength. Protective coating and finishes are also detailed.

Scope

1.1 This specification covers nails, spikes, staples, and other driven fasteners, as listed in Table 1.

TABLE 33 Type I, Style 20—Roofing NailsA
(continued)
Note 1Power driven cap nails have a 1 in. diameter plastic or steel cap with a cap diameter tolerance of ± 0.063 in. Minimum thickness of the outside edge of plastic caps is 0.035 in. Minimum thickness of metal caps is 0.010 in. Nails are steel or stainless steel; with a diamond point; smooth or deformed shanks from round or spiral wire; and bright or zinc finish. Nails with metal caps shall both be bright or both have zinc finish. With power driven cap nails, nails and caps may be packaged together or separately. Regardless of packaging, nails and caps are separately loaded into application tools with the nail being driven through the cap at point of application.

The nails used in the power driven cap nail systems are not considered roofing nails until they are combined with the cap.
