Amerimax Home Products 66012 Aluminum Flashing 12x50ft

Product Description

The AMERIMAX HOME PRODUCTS 66012 is a roll of aluminum flashing measuring 12 inches wide by 50 feet long with a material thickness of 0.0078 inches. Flashing is used to create weather-tight seals at roof penetrations, wall transitions, window and door openings, and other vulnerable intersections in a building envelope. At 5.55 pounds per roll, this product is lightweight enough for single-person handling on a roof or scaffold. Roofers, siding contractors, and general contractors install this type of flashing as part of new construction and remedial waterproofing work.

This aluminum flashing roll is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a flexible, corrosion-resistant metal barrier is needed. Typical uses include step flashing at roof-to-wall junctions, counter flashing over masonry, apron flashing at chimney bases, and window sill pan flashing. The roll format allows field cutting to length with tin snips or sheet metal shears, making it adaptable to a wide range of job conditions and substrate profiles.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aluminum flashing material for use in residential and light commercial roofing, siding, and masonry applications where a 12-inch-wide metal flashing roll is required.

Installation Notes

Aluminum flashing is typically installed by licensed roofing or siding contractors following local building code requirements. Cut to length using tin snips or sheet metal shears and form bends by hand or with a sheet metal brake. Avoid direct contact between aluminum flashing and dissimilar metals such as copper or galvanized steel, as prolonged contact can accelerate galvanic corrosion. Always follow applicable building codes for flashing integration with waterproofing membranes and fastener requirements.
