Stinger NailPac approved by IBHS Fortified Home
NailPac meets the weather-proofing standards required of a Fortified Roof.
National Nail's Stinger brand has partnered with the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety's (IBHS) Fortified Home program, specifically highlighting the Stinger NailPac.
The NailPac (1" plastic collated caps and 1" x .083 stainless steel ring shank nails for securing underlayment) seals out moisture and provides superior holding power in up to 150 mph hurricane-force winds. Because of its performance, NailPac meets the standards required of a Fortified Roof —a level of protection in the Fortified Home program that ensures water will stay out of the house in the event of severe weather.
As a program, Fortified Home aims to protect and strengthen homes to reduce the risk of property damage and financial loss, and they do so by going beyond standard building codes.
"Contractors who build stronger, more resilient homes provide their homeowners with the best protection from high winds and heavy rains. We are excited to see manufacturers like National Nail respond to contractor needs and develop products like their Stinger NailPac to make building to the Fortified Roof standards easier than ever," said Fred Malik, managing director of Fortified Products. "By providing Fortified-compliant, corrosion-resistant nails and eliminating the hassle of hand-driving button-cap nails, roofers can more quickly deliver stronger roofs for homeowners."

Stinger also offers the CS150B Cap Stapler and StaplePac (1" plastic collated caps and ⅝", ⅞", 1-1/4", and 1-½" 18ga staples) for installing housewrap and foam board.
