This specification covers nails, spikes, staples, and other fasteners driven by hand tool, power tool, or mechanical device in single or multiple strikes and are positioned by hand, tool, or machine. The driven fasteners are classified as type I: nails (NL); type II: cut nails (CN); type III: spikes (SP); and type IV: staples (ST). Materials shall be tested and the individual types shall conform to the material requirements and physical properties, such as ductility, tensile strength. Protective coating and finishes are also detailed.

(B) Root diameter is a calculated value and is not specified as a dimension to be measured.

L   =   length, in.,
H   =   head diameter, in.,
TL   =   length of threaded shank, in.,
max   =   maximum acceptable value (not subject to tolerances),
min   =   minimum acceptable value (not subject to tolerances),
D   =   shank diameter, in.,
T1   =   crest diameter, in., and
P   =   pitch, or spacing of threads, in.

(B) Nails shall comply with the supplementary requirements of S1 and Table S1.1.
(C) Nails identified as “F1667 NLRSRS” must meet all applicable requirements of F1667 for the specified roof sheathing ring shank nail.
(D) Individual rings shall be approximately frustrums, circular in transverse cross section, axially symmetric, and formed on the nail axis such that the minor diameter is closer to the nail point and the major diameter is closer to the nail head. The thread shall be continuous over the minimum thread length, TLmin.
(A) All dimensions are given in inches.

(A) All dimensions are given in inches.

1.2 Fasteners described in this specification are driven by hand tool, power tool, or mechanical device in single or multiple strikes and are positioned by hand, tool, or machine.

1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.4 Fasteners in this specification are sold in bulk (loose) form and are collated for loading into the magazine of an application tool. Other than as covered in Section 9, Workmanship, cohering materials (including, but not limited to, plastic, adhesive bond, paper tape, plastic strip, plastic carrier, wire, etc.) and relative orientation of collated fasteners are not within the scope of this standard.

1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
