Elevate #12 Insulation Fasteners 3"-7" Self-Drilling Roofing Screws, 1000/Box
Elevate #12 Fasteners secure insulation, cover boards and base sheets to corrugated steel (16-22 gauge) and wood substrates. Each fastener has a #2 double flute self-drilling point and tapered entry threads for fast penetration and strong back-out resistance. One box contains 1,000 fasteners in 3 in. to 7 in. lengths.
Key Features:
- Self-drilling point: A #2 double flute self-drilling point penetrates corrugated steel quickly without pre-drilling.
- Back-out resistance: The tapered entry thread design offers exceptional resistance to back-out under roof movement.
- Multiple lengths: Available in 3 in., 4 in., 5 in., 6 in. and 7 in. lengths to match insulation and cover board build-ups.
- Steel and wood: Engineered for attachment to both corrugated steel decks (16-22 gauge) and wood substrates.
- Works with plates: May be used with the Elevate Insulation Plate (TIS 1106) for insulation securement or base sheet attachment.
- All application types: Approved for new construction, re-roof and re-cover applications.

Coverage & How Much You Need:
Coverage depends on fastener density specified for the assembly. A 1,000-count box covers a full insulation job of roughly 2,000-4,000 sq ft at typical commercial fastening rates of 4-8 fasteners per 4x8 board, always per the project specification.
Fit and Compatibility:
Designed for use with the Elevate Insulation Plate (TIS 1106) in adhered and mechanically attached Elevate membrane systems. Re-roof and re-cover jobs require pull tests meeting or exceeding Elevate requirements, and uplift validation may require alternate fasteners, so confirm with an Elevate Regional Technical Coordinator.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: What is included in one box?
A: One box contains 1,000 #12 fasteners in the selected length from 3 in. to 7 in.
Q: Which length do I need?
A: Choose a length that penetrates the deck adequately below the insulation and cover board build-up; longer 6 in. and 7 in. screws suit thick assemblies.
Q: Will they drill through steel deck?
A: Yes, the #2 double flute self-drilling point is designed for quick penetration of 16-22 gauge corrugated steel, and the thread design also works in wood substrates.
Q: Do I need insulation plates?
A: The Elevate Insulation Plate (TIS 1106) is used with these fasteners for insulation securement and base sheet attachment; plates are sold separately.
Q: Can they be reused for re-roofing?
A: They are approved for new construction, re-roof and re-cover, but re-roof and re-cover require pull test results that meet or exceed Elevate requirements or an alternate fastener may be needed.
Q: How many boxes for my job?
A: Divide the specified fastener count per board or per square by 1,000 per box and add overage for breakage and skipped spots.
Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Match screw length to the total build-up plus adequate deck embedment; an over-long screw mushrooms the point through thin steel while an under-long one never clamps the insulation. Torque to snug, not stripped, and check pull tests on re-roofs before committing to the fastener spec. Pair with TIS 1106 plates wherever the specification calls for plate-retained insulation securement.
Roofing screws have sharp self-drilling points; keep fingers clear of the drill tip and wear gloves and eye protection during installation.
Stock up on Elevate #12 self-drilling insulation fasteners in the lengths your deck and build-up demand.
