Umbrella roofing nails are specifically designed for roofing applications, known for their large, umbrella-shaped heads which provide a larger surface area to hold roofing materials securely in place. These nails are commonly used to fasten corrugated roofing sheets, particularly in regions prone to heavy rainfall. The wide head helps prevent water from seeping through the nail holes, providing additional protection against leaks.
