The table above describes the specific KYA-RF38SM smooth-shank electro-galvanized product. Ring-shank, hot-dip galvanized and stainless steel roofing nails should be treated as separate configurations rather than specifications of this SKU.
The nails are assembled into a 15-degree wire coil for use with roofing nailers designed around the corresponding wire-collated fastener format. Each coil contains 120 nails to support continuous fastening during roofing installation.
Collation angle alone does not determine tool compatibility. Buyers should also confirm nail diameter, nail length, head profile, coil dimensions and the nailer's published fastener range.
The KYA-RF38SM uses a smooth .120" shank. Smooth-shank coil roofing nails are a common configuration for pneumatic installation of shingles and other compatible roofing materials.
Where a project specifically requires a ring-shank or other deformed-shank roofing nail, select that configuration separately rather than substituting it for the smooth-shank product without checking the fastening requirement.
The featured KYA-RF38SM uses an electro-galvanized zinc coating. This finish provides corrosion protection compared with uncoated steel, but the correct coating should always be selected according to roofing material, moisture exposure, treated timber and project requirements.
For applications requiring a different corrosion-protection level, KYA publishes additional roofing nail configurations with hot-dip galvanized and stainless steel options. Confirm the required material, finish, shank and length before ordering.
The 1-1/2" x .120 smooth-shank roofing nail is intended for professional fastening applications where this nail size and finish meet the roofing-system requirements.
Asphalt shingle installation
Fiberglass shingles
Composition roofing
Roofing felt
Roofing underlayment
Selected siding applications
Insulation board fastening
Metal drip-edge fastening where the specified fastener is suitable
The wider KYA roofing nail family includes other lengths, shanks and finishes. These options are useful when a project requires a different fastener specification from the featured KYA-RF38SM.
| Finish | Published Lengths | Shank | Pcs/Carton |
|---|---|---|---|
| Electro-Galvanized | 3/4", 7/8", 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2", 1-3/4" | Smooth | 7,200 |
| Electro-Galvanized | 3/4", 1-1/4", 1-1/2" | Ring | 7,200 |
| Hot-Dip Galvanized | 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2", 1-3/4" | Smooth | 7,200 |
| Stainless Steel 304 | 3/4", 7/8", 1" | Smooth | 7,200 |
| Stainless Steel 316 | 3/4", 7/8", 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2", 1-3/4" | Ring | 7,200 |
The table above reflects the published family configurations associated with this page. Confirm the exact combination of length, shank, material, finish and carton quantity before placing an order.
| Shank | Selection Consideration |
|---|---|
| Smooth Shank | The configuration used by the featured KYA-RF38SM. Select it where a smooth-shank roofing nail is specified or permitted. |
| Ring Shank | Deformed rings provide increased mechanical engagement with wood. Use where the roofing or fastening specification calls for this shank type. |
KYA-RF38SM is intended for compatible roofing nailers that accept 15-degree wire-collated coil roofing nails with a .120" shank diameter and 1-1/2" length.
Before ordering, check the exact nailer manual for the accepted collation type, angle, shank diameter, nail length, head dimensions and coil configuration. Do not determine compatibility from the tool brand or the term “roofing nailer” alone.
This product has a 1-1/2" (38mm) length. Select the nail length according to the roofing material, substrate, required penetration and applicable installation specification.
The featured nail has a .120" / 3.05mm shank diameter. Confirm this diameter against both the nailer specification and roofing-system requirements.
KYA-RF38SM is a smooth-shank product. If ring shank is required, specify the corresponding ring-shank configuration rather than assuming the two versions are interchangeable.
The featured product is electro-galvanized. For environments or substrates requiring a different corrosion-protection level, select an appropriate finish or material according to the roofing-system, timber and project requirements.
Verify that the exact tool accepts 15° wire-coil roofing nails with the required length, diameter and coil configuration before placing a bulk order.
