OMG Roofing Products - #15 x 2 XHD Roofing Fast. DP

The OMG XHD002B is part of the XHD (#15) Extra Heavy Duty roofing fastener series designed for light gauge steel, OSB, plywood, or aluminum decks. It features oversized shank and thread diameters plus deep buttress threads to maximize pull-out and back-out resistance. A miniature drill point ensures fast penetration and the CR-10 coating delivers corrosion protection.

Key Features:

• Oversized heavy shank and thread diameters for increased pull-out resistance
• Deep buttress threads to resist pull-out and back-out
• Miniature drill point for fast penetration
• #3 Phillips truss head design
• CR-10 corrosion resistant coating that meets FM 4470 and EAD requirements

• Thread diameter: 0.265 in (6.73 mm)
• Shank diameter: 0.202 in (5.13 mm)
• Head diameter: 0.435 in (11.04 mm), #3 Phillips truss
• Head style: #3 Phillips truss head
• Thread pitch: 13 threads per inch (full thread version)
• Coating: CR-10 corrosion resistant coating (passes FM 4470 and EAD 030351-00-0402)
• Length: 2 in (50 mm)
• Weight per box: 20 lbs (9.08 kg)

• Determine the required fastener length by adding insulation, membrane, and the minimum embedment requirements for the deck type.
• Using a screw gun with appropriate bit, align the fastener perpendicular to the substrate.
• Drive the fastener until a slight depression appears in the insulation or plate surface—avoid overdriving.
• Ensure the plate does not spin; tighten just enough to engage full seating.
• In rigid cover board applications, avoid stripping the deck by observing torque and alignment.
• Conduct pull tests to verify substrate strength and fastener performance.

Q: What deck types are appropriate for XHD002B?
A: It is intended for light gauge steel, OSB, plywood, or aluminum decks.

Q: What is the minimum required penetration (embedment)?
A: For steel and aluminum decks, at least ¾ inch past the top flute; for OSB/plywood, ¾ inch through the underside; for wood plank, at least 1 inch embedment.

Q: Does XHD002B comply with FM standards?
A: Yes, it carries FM approval and Miami-Dade acceptance as an Extra Heavy Duty fastener.

Q: Can this fastener back out under load?
A: The deep buttress threads and design minimize back-out risk; proper installation and torque help ensure stability.

Q: Why choose a 2-inch length?
A: The 2-inch version is used in thinner assemblies where minimal embedment is needed, while maintaining the same geometry and corrosion protection of longer XHD variants.
