This is a general explanation and does not reflect what we carry or have in stock.

A roofing nailer is specifically designed for installing roofing materials, like asphalt shingles, roof felt, or tar paper. It’s optimized for speed, consistency, and handling tough outdoor conditions.

? Details:

  • Coil roofing nails, typically 11-gauge

  • Nail Lengths: 3/4" to 1¾"

  • Nails usually have wide, flat heads to securely hold shingles without tearing them

• Magazine Type:

  • Coil-fed, which allows it to hold up to 120 nails at once
