Patented SureNail Technology

There’s a Line Between a Good Shingle and a Great Shingle

SureNail is the first and only reinforced nailing zone on the face of a shingle: a tough woven fabric strip embedded in the shingle that gives the installer an easy-to-see, strong fastening area, and gives you a roof that holds on in the wind.

Shingle layers with the SureNail fabric lifted — Triple Layer Protection in the nailing zone

Outstanding gripThe SureNail strip works with Owens Corning’s Tru-Bond sealant for wind resistance backed by a limited warranty of up to 160 mph.

Double the common bondUp to a 200% wider bond between the shingle layers in the nailing zone compared with standard shingles.

No-guess nailing zoneNails land in a reinforced band every time, which is the difference between a good installation and a great one.

The finishing touch

Hip and Ridge Shingles, Color Matched

Owens Corning hip and ridge shingles come in blends matched to every Duration color, so hips and ridges finish the roof instead of interrupting it. Those blends are only available from Owens Corning.

Total Protection Roofing System

It Takes More Than Shingles to Protect a Home

An integrated system of layers and components designed to seal the deck, defend against the elements and let the attic breathe. When every part is Owens Corning, the whole roof works together, and it is what unlocks the 160 mph wind warranty.

Cutaway of the roof system layers — Starter, laminate and hip and ridge shingles over underlayment, ice and water barrier, intake and exhaust vents, and attic insulation

SealSelf-adhered ice and water barrier and synthetic underlayment create a waterproof barrier on the deck.

DefendStarter shingles at eaves and rakes, Duration laminate shingles and matched hip and ridge defend against the weather.

BreatheIntake and exhaust vents balance attic ventilation, and blown-in attic insulation adds comfort and energy performance.
