Coverage & How Much You Need:
Fastener count depends on wind uplift requirements, insulation thickness, and fastener pattern; determine pull-out and pull-over values per assembly, then divide plate count by the pack size (250, 500, or 1000 per bucket or carton). Longer 14-24 in. fasteners are for thick insulation over steel or wood decks.
Fit and Compatibility:
Use with TopShield metal insulation plates MP-3000 and MPR-3000 (sold separately). Screws are sized to fasten through insulation into 18 to 22 gauge corrugated steel decks or wood substrates, so choose a length at least long enough for the required embedment through the deck.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: What is included in the sell unit?
A: Depending on size, a bucket or carton of 250, 500, or 1000 black #15 EHD fasteners in the selected length from 2 in. to 24 in.
Q: What substrates can these fasten into?
A: They are engineered for lap attachment to corrugated steel from 18 to 22 gauge and wood substrates.
Q: What length should I choose?
A: Select a length that passes through the insulation and achieves proper embedment in the steel deck or wood substrate; long 14 to 24 in. sizes serve thick insulation build-ups.
Q: Do they need a pilot hole?
A: No, the #2 double flute self-drilling point drills and taps steel quickly without pre-drilling.
Q: Which plates do they use?
A: Use them with TopShield metal insulation plates MP-3000 and MPR-3000.
Q: Why extra heavy duty?
A: The #15 EHD design with tapered entry thread is built for higher wind uplift assemblies and exceptional back-out resistance.
Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
The #15 EHD line covers nearly every commercial re-roof build-up, so pick the fastener length from your total insulation stack-up plus required deck embedment, and verify withdrawal values against your uplift design pressures. Pair every fastener with the MP-3000 or MPR-3000 plate to distribute load over the membrane. Drill with a screwgun at the speed the manufacturer recommends so the self-drilling point does not burn out in heavier decks. For jobs near the coast or with strict uplift zones, favor the tapered thread design's back-out resistance over commodity screws.
Self-drilling screws are sharp and generate hot metal shavings; wear gloves and eye protection and use a screwgun with proper bit and clutch settings.
