    1.1 This specification covers nails, spikes, staples, and other driven fasteners, as listed in Table 1.

    Note 1—Fastener ductility information is presented in Table 2 and dimensional information in Tables 3-67.

    1.2 Fasteners described in this specification are driven by hand tool, power tool, or mechanical device in single or multiple strikes and are positioned by hand, tool, or machine.

    1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

    1.4 Fasteners in this specification are sold in bulk (loose) form and are collated for loading into the magazine of an application tool. Other than as covered in Section 9, Workmanship, cohering materials (including, but not limited to, plastic, adhesive bond, paper tape, plastic strip, plastic carrier, wire, etc.) and relative orientation of collated fasteners are not within the scope of this standard.

    1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

    TABLE 34 Type I, Style 20Roofing NailsA

    Note—Power driven cap nails have a 1 in. diameter plastic or steel cap with a cap diameter tolerance of ± 0.063 in. Minimum thickness of the outside edge of plastic caps is 0.035 in. Minimum thickness of metal caps is 0.010 in. Nails are steel or stainless steel; with a diamond point; smooth or deformed shanks from round or spiral wire; and bright or zinc finish. Nails with metal caps shall both be bright or both have zinc finish. With power driven cap nails, nails and caps may be packaged together or separately. Regardless of packaging, nails and caps are separately loaded into application tools with the nail being driven through the cap at point of application.

    The nails used in the power driven cap nail systems are not considered roofing nails until they are combined with the cap.
