Product Description
The Simpson 5d x 1-3/4 Annular Ring Shank Roof Nail with EPDM Washer is a 10-gauge fastener built for exterior sheathing attachment and roofing applications where long-term holding power and moisture resistance are non-negotiable. Produced from Type 304 Stainless Steel and fitted with a Type 316 Stainless Steel bonded EPDM sealing washer, this nail addresses two of the most common failure points in roofing assemblies: fastener corrosion and moisture infiltration at the penetration point.
Key Features
- Type 304 Stainless Steel body - resists rust and corrosion in high-humidity and coastal environments where standard steel fasteners degrade and compromise the surrounding assembly
- Annular ring shank - mechanically locks into substrate material for dramatically higher withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank alternatives, keeping roofing and sheathing panels secure under wind uplift and thermal cycling
- Full round head with bonded EPDM washer (Type 316 Stainless Steel-backed) - compresses against the substrate upon installation to create a weather-resistant seal at every fastener penetration point, blocking moisture intrusion
- 10-gauge, 5d penny size at 1-3/4 in. length - sized appropriately for structural exterior sheathing panels and roofing applications where code-compliant fastener dimensions are required
- Smooth point - allows clean, controlled driving without splitting thinner substrate materials at the nail entry point
Why This Product
- Built-in waterproofing at every nail location - the bonded EPDM washer eliminates a chronic weak point in roofing assemblies by sealing each fastener hole as the nail is driven, reducing the risk of water infiltration over the life of the roof
- Superior grip for structural sheathing - the annular ring shank delivers the withdrawal resistance demanded by structural panel attachment applications, making this nail a reliable choice where smooth-shank fasteners would be inadequate
- Corrosion-resistant from shank to washer - with a Type 304 Stainless Steel nail body paired with a Type 316 Stainless Steel washer, every metal component in contact with the assembly is engineered to withstand the moisture exposure common in coastal and weather-exposed installations
- Simpson engineering for a trusted fit - as a Simpson-branded fastener produced in the United States, this nail is designed to meet the dimensional and performance expectations of professional roofing and sheathing work

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of stainless steel is used, and why does it matter for roofing applications?
These nails are manufactured from Type 304 Stainless Steel, which provides exceptional corrosion resistance. This makes them particularly well suited for exterior and coastal environments where high moisture exposure would cause standard steel fasteners to rust and degrade over time, compromising the integrity of the roofing assembly.
What is the purpose of the EPDM washer on this nail?
The bonded EPDM sealing washer compresses against the substrate when the nail is driven home, forming a weather-resistant seal around the fastener penetration point. This seal helps prevent moisture infiltration at the nail hole - a critical detail for maintaining the long-term performance of roofing assemblies and exterior wall sheathing.
Why choose an annular ring shank nail over a smooth-shank nail for roofing?
The annular ring shank mechanically interlocks with the substrate material, which dramatically increases withdrawal resistance compared to smooth-shank nails. This greater holding power helps the fastener resist the forces of wind uplift and thermal cycling over time, providing a more secure and durable attachment in demanding roofing applications.
What are the key dimensions and specifications of this nail?
This nail is a 5d size, measuring 1-3/4 inches in length and made from 10-gauge wire. It features a full round head and is manufactured from Type 304 Stainless Steel with a bonded EPDM sealing washer, and the model number is S10A175X01-E.
