The first widely available collated solution for high R-value insulated exterior sheathing.
Irving, Texas (September 15, 2025) – PrimeSource Building Products, Inc., a leading North American provider of specialty branded building products, announces the launch of Grip-Rite® SpeedSpike™, the first widely available 4-1/2” collated fastener engineered specifically for use with high R-value insulated exterior sheathing. Continuous insulation delivers enhanced thermal performance and improved moisture management combined with the structural support of traditional sheathing panels in modern wall assemblies- and the fasteners holding them together – are key to their success.
Grip-Rite® SpeedSpike™ is ideal for use in residential and commercial applications where high R-value sheathing is required by code or desired by the builder. As stricter energy efficiency standards become the norm, high R-value continuous insulated sheathing is critical in regions across Climate Zones 5–8*. Current solutions often require crews to hand-drive up to 42 individual fasteners per sheet, significantly adding to installation time, labor costs, and jobsite fatigue.
High R-value insulated sheathing calls for a fastening solution that’s both faster and longer. Grip-Rite® SpeedSpike™ was designed to solve this inefficiency head-on — offering contractors a faster, more effective fastening solution they can trust. Beyond speed and performance, Grip-Rite® SpeedSpike™ is priced competitively and distinct from existing market options in both efficiency and labor savings.
“Contractors asked and we delivered. Grip-Rite® SpeedSpike™ is a direct response to their needs and a clear example of how we innovate to bring broad-scale efficiency to the job site — faster, deeper, and stronger,” said Isabelle Csiszar, Senior Product Manager for PrimeSource Building Products.
