| New Duration Series shingles with SureNail technology Owens Corning introduces Duration Series shingles with SureNail Technology. Duration Series shingles deliver high wind protection - resisting up to category three hurricane force winds. Installation errors can trigger inspection redtags on the job site. They also may cause leaks or tear-offs in high winds, producing a callback from the homeowner. Duration Shingles with SureNail Technology have a wider, reinforced nailing area and a clearly recognizable nailing strip that allows roofing subcontractors to install with high accuracy. Due to the liberal nailing area associated with the SureNail strip, roofing contractors have reported productivity gains, allowing them to move on to the next roof sooner. Roofs that go up fast with fewer mistakes reduce cycle time for builders. The additional bonding strength provided by the interaction between the Tru-Bond sealant and the SureNail nailing strip gives shingles with SureNail Technology extra high wind performance: 130 mph on Duration Premium shingles and 110 mph on Duration shingles. The industry standard is 70 mph and 90 mph respectively. That's a differentiator buyers will notice. Duration Premium shingles feature a bold, vibrant, thick-looking pattern while Duration shingles provide a soft, muted pattern. Both are available in an extensive array of 12 colors. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
