Samac Copper Clout Nails provide a durable, corrosion-resistant fixing solution for slate roofing and other applications exposed to demanding weather conditions.

Copper clout nails are particularly useful where the longevity of the fixing is important. Unlike standard steel fixings that can be vulnerable to corrosion when exposed to moisture over long periods, copper provides excellent resistance to weathering, helping to create a durable fixing suitable for long-term roofing installations.
The choice between the available lengths and shank diameters will depend on the slate, substrate and fixing requirements of the individual roof. Always select the appropriate nail size for the roofing material and installation specification being used.
