TRI-BUILT 2.25 in Standard Drill Point Roofing Fasteners #12, 1,000-Count Bucket
This is a bucket of 1,000 TRI-BUILT #12 standard drill point roofing fasteners, 2.25 in long. The longer shank reaches thicker assemblies and heavier substrates, and the standard drill point eliminates pre-drilling. Sold as one bucket weighing about 16 lb.
Key Features:
- Longer reach: 2.25 in length fastens through thicker insulation and into heavier framing.
- Self-drilling point: Standard drill point drives without pre-drilling for faster installation.
- #12 gauge: Standard #12 shank for reliable holding strength.
- Bulk bucket: 1,000 fasteners per bucket supports a full day of production.
- High-wind listed: FM Approved and Miami-Dade County Approved as printed.

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Size the fastener so the drill point clears the metal while at least the required embedment reaches the deck; 2.25 in is common for over-insulated metal roofing assemblies. Set the screw gun clutch to avoid overdriving and crushing insulation. Pair with the matching seam-fastener pattern in your roofing system's specification.
Fastener points are sharp; wear gloves and eye protection when handling and driving screws.
