7/8 in Plastic Cap Nails (2,000 Count)
These 7/8 in plastic round cap nails are designed for fastening housewrap, underlayment, rigid insulation, and felt with reduced tear-out. The wide plastic cap increases holding power, while the ring-shank electrogalvanized steel nail helps resist pull-through and provides light corrosion resistance.
Key Features:
- Wide Plastic Cap: Round plastic cap helps prevent tearing and pull-through on housewrap, felt, and insulation.
- Ring-Shank Holding Power: Aggressive/annular ring shank grips wood substrates for a more secure attachment.
- Electrogalvanized Steel: Light corrosion resistance for typical above-grade applications.
- Jobsite Versatility: Commonly used for mechanically attached housewraps, underlayment, rigid insulation, and felt.
- Bulk Box Quantity: 2,000-count box supports larger projects and fewer reloads.
