Amerimax Home Products 70008 Galvanized Roll Flashing

Product Description

The AMERIMAX HOME PRODUCTS 70008 is a galvanized roll flashing designed for weatherproofing and moisture management in residential and light commercial construction. The roll measures 8 inches wide by 50 feet long and is fabricated from galvanized steel at a 0.010-inch thickness, providing a pliable yet durable barrier against water intrusion. Roofing contractors, siding installers, and general contractors use this product to seal transitions between roofing materials, walls, windows, doors, and other penetrations where water infiltration is a concern. The galvanized coating resists corrosion in outdoor exposure conditions.

This roll flashing is suited for use in residential roofing and siding applications, including step flashing, base flashing, and wall-to-roof transitions. It is commonly installed along roof edges, around chimneys, at window and door rough openings, and at horizontal-to-vertical surface transitions. The 50-foot roll length provides enough material to cover extended runs without mid-run splicing on most residential projects. Supplied as a single roll per package.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in exterior applications
• 0.010-inch material thickness for hand-formability without special tooling
• 8-inch width covers standard flashing overlap requirements at most roof and wall transitions
• 50-foot roll length reduces waste and minimizes mid-run seams
• Sold as a single roll unit for straightforward job-site inventory

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose galvanized roll flashing for residential and light commercial roofing, siding, and masonry flashing applications where a malleable, corrosion-resistant metal flashing is specified.

Installation Notes

Galvanized roll flashing is typically installed by roofing or siding contractors following local building code requirements and manufacturer installation guidelines. Cut the flashing to length using aviation snips and wear appropriate cut-resistant gloves, as cut edges are sharp. Fasten according to the applicable building code, ensuring proper lap and seal at all joints to prevent water bypass. Do not use in direct contact with treated lumber unless the galvanized coating weight is confirmed compatible with the preservative chemistry in use.
