Roofing nails are specialized fasteners designed to secure roofing materials, withstanding harsh weather and ensuring long-term roof durability. Below, we break down the main types of roofing nails, how to choose the right one, and why quality matters—plus our top options from Tianyu Fasteners.
These nails excel in high-humidity environments, thanks to superior corrosion resistance. They won’t rust, delivering a strong, long-lasting hold to keep roofing materials secure for years.

Coated with zinc to resist rust and corrosion, these are a go-to for most roofing projects. They’re strong, reliable, and work with materials like shingles and tiles—their protective coating extends lifespan, making them a favorite among tradespeople.

Designed specifically for fastening roofing felt (used for waterproofing), they have a broad head to hold felt securely without tearing, ensuring a watertight seal. Essential for keeping waterproofing materials in place.

Available in steel (strong, durable) or aluminum (lightweight, corrosion-resistant), these come in various sizes. They secure shingles, tiles, and other roofing materials to the deck—material choice depends on your project’s needs.

Similar to copper clout nails but tailored for roofing, they offer top-tier corrosion resistance and a firm hold. Ideal for high-end projects needing long-lasting, weather-resistant solutions.

Used to attach roofing felt to the roof deck, they prevent tearing and ensure a tight hold—critical for maintaining the waterproof barrier.
- Material: Prioritize corrosion resistance for your environment. Copper or galvanized nails work best in high-moisture areas.
- Size: Match length and diameter to your roofing materials for secure fastening.
- Type: Pick nails designed for your specific task (e.g., felt nails for waterproofing, general nails for shingles).
High-quality nails prevent leaks, keep materials secure, and resist rust/corrosion—all key to extending your roof’s life and avoiding costly repairs. Invest in the right nails, and your roof will stand strong for years.
We offer a full range of roofing nails to fit any project: copper clout nails, galvanized clout nails, felt nails, and more. Each is built for durability, ensuring your roof stays secure through the elements.
