Hi guys, ive been searching around for the right nails for new slate roof but cannot seem to find the right nail for a 600x300 slate roof.

What type of nail do I need, does it have to be copper or is corrosion resistant galvanised good enough?

Also how much should the slates overlap?

It will be for a small single storey rear extension roof. only 10sqmeters. In central Birmingham. the roof will be about 20 degree angle pitch.

The place were you are going to buy your slates should be able to sell you some 30mm copper nails 1kg should be enough.
