Amerimax Home Products 68010 Aluminum Flashing 10in X 50ft

Product Description

The AMERIMAX HOME PRODUCTS 68010 is a mill finish aluminum flashing roll designed for weatherproofing and moisture management in residential and light commercial construction. Measuring 10 inches wide by 50 feet long with a material thickness of 0.0092 inches, this roll provides a substantial run of corrosion-resistant aluminum sheeting in a single piece. Licensed contractors and skilled tradespeople use this flashing to seal transitions at rooflines, windows, doors, chimneys, and wall penetrations where water intrusion is a primary concern. The mill finish surface accepts paint and sealants readily and resists oxidation in typical exterior environments.

This flashing roll suits a wide range of applications including step flashing, counter flashing, valley flashing, and pan flashing at roof-to-wall junctions. It is appropriate for sloped roofing systems, masonry work, and framed wall assemblies in both new construction and retrofit scenarios. Roofers, siding contractors, and general contractors commonly stock this material for projects requiring a field-cut, malleable metal barrier against wind-driven rain and standing moisture.

Key Features

• 10-inch width provides coverage for standard flashing applications without excessive trimming
• 50-foot roll length reduces seams and speeds installation on longer runs
• 0.0092-inch thickness offers a balance of rigidity and hand-formability for field bending
• Mill finish aluminum resists corrosion and is compatible with most sealants and fasteners
• Lightweight material at 5 pounds per roll for easy handling on ladders and rooftops

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aluminum flashing roll suitable for use in residential and light commercial roofing, masonry, window, and door flashing applications where a 10-inch-wide aluminum barrier is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed roofers or siding contractors following local building code requirements and manufacturer guidelines for flashing integration. Tin snips or aviation shears are standard tools for field cutting; wear cut-resistant gloves when handling trimmed edges. Fasteners and sealants should be compatible with aluminum to prevent galvanic corrosion at contact points. Always integrate flashing with the water-resistive barrier and roofing underlayment in the correct shingle-lap sequence to ensure proper drainage.
