Standard Slate Hooks, 25 Lb Box
Slate hooks are used during the repair of slate and other hard shingle roofs, such as asbestos and tile. They are also used during the installation of slates on a new roof where scaffolding or roof jacks were temporarily nailed to the roof. Some slaters use nothing but slate hooks for repair work, as they are easier than nail and bib when working with new or especially dense slate. All hooks have blunt points for safety.
Copper is a softer metal, and should be used on softer boards.
Anodized stainless steel is stronger than copper, and is recommended for hard lumbers and roof decking that will bend copper. Black anodized steel is not shiny, long-lasting, and relatively invisible.
