Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Match the 5 in. length to your actual assembly stack-up: panel thickness plus insulation plus deck embedment. On recover roofs, confirm existing deck condition before relying on embedment. Drive with a depth-adjustable screw gun to prevent overdriving and stripped points.
Wear eye protection and gloves when driving drill point screws; tips and metal chips are sharp.
