Product Description
WANSUN Orange Plastic Cap Nails combine a sharp 1" galvanized steel nail with a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) orange washer cap. The cap provides a large bearing surface (typically 1" diameter) that prevents tearing of roofing felt, house wrap, and foam insulation during installation. The bright orange color offers high visibility on the job site, making it easy to spot and adjust fastener placement. Packed 7,680 cartons per 40'HQ container for maximum export efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the purpose of the plastic cap?
The plastic cap acts as a large washer that distributes the holding force over a 1" diameter area. This prevents thin materials like roofing felt, house wrap, and foam insulation from tearing around the nail head during wind loads or thermal expansion.
Can I get different cap colors?
Yes, we offer plastic cap nails in orange (standard), blue, white, black, and custom colors. Different colors are often used to indicate different nail lengths or to match building aesthetics. Custom colors require a minimum order quantity of 100 boxes per color.
What is the lead time for a 40'HQ order?
For a full 40'HQ container (7,680 cartons / 76.8 million pieces), standard lead time is 20-30 days depending on cap color availability and nail specification. We keep orange and blue in stock for faster delivery.
Are these nails compatible with cap nailers?
Yes, our plastic cap nails are designed to be used with all major brands of pneumatic cap nailers, including Senco, Bostitch, Hitachi, and others. The cap and nail feed together as a single fastener for efficient installation.
What is the difference between orange and blue caps?
Orange and blue caps are functionally identical — both made from HDPE and same 1" diameter. The color difference is purely for visibility and aesthetic preference. Many contractors choose different colors for different applications (e.g., orange for roofing, blue for siding).
