Nails of screws for insulation?

[wantacoe]

Trying to find some nails or screws to hold some insulation in place. need to be 6" long and small diameter. Only thing I can find is like .200. I will be using them to hold this insulation. Any ideas?

Try a commercial roofing co or supply house. On metal roof deck the insulation would e held down with self drilling screws w/ very large round disks (larger than a fender washer).

GRK R4 "Deck" type screws are available up to about 12", probably #10.

I re-did my whole house in 2” rigid and used these with a normal deck screw. Worked real good.

HD sells 4" screws, but 6" aren't hard to find, as are boxes of foam roofing washers.
