| Model | Shank | Best For | Compatible Nailers |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-3/4" Smooth Shank | Smooth | Standard 3-tab shingles | Bostitch RN46, MAX SuperFramer |
| 1-3/4" Ring Shank | Ring | High-wind zones, architectural shingles | All major coil nailers |
| 1-3/4" Stainless | Ring | Coastal environments, salt air | Bostitch, Metabo HPT |
| 2" Smooth Shank | Smooth | Thicker decking, re-roof over existing | Metabo HPT NV45AB2 |
| 1-1/4" Standard | Smooth or Ring | Asphalt shingles over 1/2" plywood (everyday standard) | All major coil nailers |
| 1" Short | Smooth | Repair work, thin decking | All major coil nailers |
All listed nails are 15° wire-collated coil roofing nails — the standard collation for every major brand. The Metabo HPT NV45AB2 uses a 16° magazine but accepts the same wire-coil nails. Diameter is .120" for standard roofing nails (11 ga).
Best pick for your job
Match the gun to the work — these are the picks pros reach for in each scenario.
Standard asphalt re-roof
3-tab or architectural shingles over 1/2" plywood.
Code minimum penetration with the fastest, cheapest standard nail.
High-wind zone (HVHZ)
Florida HVHZ, 130+ mph design wind.
35-45% more pull-out strength — required by code in HVHZ counties.
Coastal / salt air
Within 1 mile of saltwater.
Galvanized rusts in salt air. Stainless is the only long-term answer.
Cedar shake
Cedar shingles or shakes over solid sheathing.
Cedar's tannins corrode galvanized. Stainless is non-negotiable.
Tear-off with multiple layers
Re-roof over existing shingles.
Need extra length to reach sheathing through the existing layer.
Treated lumber / fascia
Pressure-treated decking or trim.
ACQ-treated lumber eats EG nails — HDG or stainless only.
The complete coil roofing nail buying guide
Pick your size by code, not by preference
Coil roofing nails come in three standard lengths and the right one is dictated by your sheathing and shingle stack, not by personal preference. 1" nails are repair and thin-deck only. 1-1/4" is the everyday standard for asphalt shingles over 1/2" plywood. 1-3/4" covers tear-offs with multiple layers, ridge caps, and thicker assemblies. Our size guide walks code requirements and the math on penetration depth.
Coatings — when each one actually matters
Electro-galvanized is the default for asphalt shingle work in normal climates. Hot-dipped galvanized outlasts EG by years in humid or coastal air and is the right call any time you nail through treated lumber. Stainless is the no-compromise option for cedar shake and salt-air installs.
Smooth or ring shank
Smooth shank drives faster and is fine for most pitched asphalt installs. Ring shank is required in HVHZ wind zones and is cheap insurance anywhere wind uplift is a concern. Read the full breakdown in our ring shank vs smooth shank guide.
