Kynar500 Coated Aluminum D-Style Drip Edge Flashing
Aluminum D-style drip edge flashing is actually an improved version of the classic T-shape drip edge. Used on the edges of roofs covered with asphalt shingles and sometimes slate and terracotta tiles, it efficiently diverts water streams away from the fascia, which could degrade from excess moisture.
The Kynar500 coated D-style drip edge flashings offered by Northshore Sheet Metals are also highly aesthetically pleasing additions that perfectly complement the aesthetics of your client’s roof. With classic proportions, the roof edge is finished to transition seamlessly into the gutter, making it unobtrusive.
Combining aesthetics with functionality, aluminum D-style drip edge flashing is the perfect addition to high-quality asphalt shingles, slate tiles or terracotta tiles.
Aluminum D-Profile Drip Edge Flashing Features
The team at Northshore Sheet Metals has refined our “D” style drip edge flashings to outclass their competition. We believe that the essential function of any drip edge is to effectively direct water away from the roof and protect the fascia from soaking. For this reason, our products do this as well as possible. We achieved this with a perfectly designed shape and a smooth surface that facilitates the flow of water.
The D-shape drip edge flashings we manufacture also protect the edges of the roof from damage. A properly installed drip edge should extend a little beyond the outline of the roof panels, so there is a good chance that when hit by a branch, only the flashing, which is easy to replace or repair, will be damaged.
Drip edge is also the perfect finish for the roof you are building. Thanks to Kynar’s extensive color palette, interesting, attractive and avant-garde shade combinations are possible. It’s a beautiful addition that will crown a premium roof.
How to Use D-Shaped Drip Edge Flashings?
D-shape drip edge profile is used not only for securing the junction of the roof slope with the wall. You can also use it over windows, on chimneys and in other places where aesthetic and safe flashing is needed. When installing a kynar coated aluminum drip edge manufactured by Northshore Sheet Metals, make sure that the piece will be securely fastened with silicone or a suitably strong adhesive.
All of our flashings are made from the highest quality materials, which guarantees trouble-free operation for many years. Thanks to the resin-based Kynar500 coating, D-shape drip edge flashings will last up to 50 years, although typically, they are replaced along with the roof, so after 15-25 years. Kynar500 provides phenomenal resistance to wind, rain, ice, hail and rust, which justifies its slightly higher price. Add to that, this coating offers tremendous customization possibilities – the standard offer includes 26 colors, so you’re sure to find a shade that meets your customer’s requirements.
