Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Match cap-nail spacing to the underlayment manufacturer's specification; typical low-slope underlayment specs call for fastening along laps and in the field at defined intervals. The plastic cap dramatically reduces pull-through and tear-out versus bare nails on thin sheet materials. Choose a longer or ring-shank fastener if you need more withdrawal into the deck.
Fastener points are sharp; wear gloves and eye protection and keep hands clear of the nailing path.
Order the PrimeSource 1-1/2 in. plastic cap nails, 1 lb box, for underlayment and wrap fastening.
