Expert Verdict Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Choose cap nails when fastening weather-resistive barriers or rigid foam, since the wide head prevents tearing through the membrane. Follow the fastening schedule on the housewrap or foam manufacturer’s instructions and local code for wind zones. Keep the bucket closed when not in use to keep caps and nails clean and dry.

Wear eye protection when hand-driving or using fastening tools, and keep fingers clear of the driving path.
