Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Large-head, heavy-gauge nails are the right choice for shingles and underlayment because the head resists pull-through. Electro-galvanized coating suits standard applications; for coastal or treated-lumber exposure consider hot-dip galvanized instead. Drive nails flush without overdriving so the head seats without cutting the shingle.
Wear eye protection and gloves when handling and driving nails; follow manufacturer and code requirements for shingle fastening.
