Coverage & How Much You Need:
Coverage depends on fastener spacing specified by the underlayment or housewrap manufacturer; at typical cap-nail spacing schedules, a 2,000-count box fastens a significant roof or wall area. Always follow the substrate manufacturer's printed fastening pattern.
Fit and Compatibility:
Use with cap-nail guns or manual application on underlayments, synthetics and housewrap. Check nail shank length compatibility with your tool and substrate thickness.

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Wide-cap nails are the standard choice for holding synthetic underlayment and housewrap, where smooth-shank nails tear out. Match the cap size and shank to your tool's specifications and follow the substrate manufacturer's fastening schedule—overdriving can crack caps. A 2,000-count box is the right size for a typical roof-per-job workflow.
Wear safety glasses when fastening; caps and nails can ricochet if the tool bounces or overdrives.
