No, compatible M6 nuts are not included and must be purchased separately.

Can these bolts be used with any type of roofing material?

These bolts are suitable for most roofing materials, but always check material compatibility before use.

How do I prevent corrosion?

Ensure the zinc plating is intact. If the bolts are exposed to harsh conditions, inspect and replace as needed.
