Metal Roofing Screws 10 x 1-1/2 in Pewter Gray Slate Gray - Durable

In this review the Metal Roofing Screws 10 x 1-1/2 in (250 pack) are assessed for homeowners and contractors who need a reliable, color-matched fastener for wood-backed metal roofing. The single biggest reason to consider these screws is their combination of a painted colored hex head with an EPDM washer and galvanized shaft, which delivers straightforward installation and corrosion resistance while blending closely with many metal roof panels.

Key Features

• Painted hex head: The colored head is painted with a two part polyurethane to improve longevity and to blend with common metal roofing colors.
• EPDM washer: The 1/2 in EPDM washer helps seal the fastener under the head to reduce water intrusion around each screw.
• T17 self-starting point: The sharp T17 type point is designed to start and drive through metal into wood backing quickly and securely.
• Galvanized shaft: The #10 shaft is galvanized for corrosion resistance in exterior roofing applications.
• Standard sizing: The screws measure 1-1/2 in under the head, making them suitable for typical metal-over-wood installations.

Who It's For

This product is aimed at homeowners, roofers, and DIYers installing or repairing metal roofing panels over wood substrates who want a colored fastener that closely matches their roof. The 250-count pack is convenient for medium-sized jobs where consistent head color and a sealed washer are useful.

Those who need fasteners for metal-to-metal fastening, very thick substrate layers, or specialty coatings should look for screws specified for those conditions; this pack is optimized for metal-to-wood use and standard panel thicknesses.

Pros & Cons
