Amerimax Home Products 70408 Galvanized Roll Flashing

Product Description

The AMERIMAX HOME PRODUCTS 70408 is a galvanized roll flashing strip measuring 8 inches wide by 10 feet long with a material thickness of 0.010 inches. Designed for use in moisture management and weatherproofing applications, this roll flashing creates a water-resistant barrier at roof-to-wall intersections, window and door openings, and other penetration points where water infiltration is a concern. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in exposed exterior environments. It is typically installed by roofing contractors, general contractors, and skilled trade professionals working on residential construction and repair projects.

This roll flashing is suited for residential applications requiring a flexible, field-cut flashing solution. Common install scenarios include step flashing transitions, chimney aprons, dormer sidewalls, and rough-opening sill pan flashing. The 10-foot roll length allows for continuous coverage or can be cut to length on site using standard sheet metal snips or aviation shears. Its 8-inch width provides adequate coverage for most standard flashing details without requiring additional trimming in typical applications.

Installation Notes

Roll flashing is typically installed by roofing or general contractors and should be applied in accordance with local building codes and manufacturer roofing system requirements. Secure flashing using appropriate fasteners and seal overlapping edges with compatible roofing sealant or underlayment to prevent water intrusion. Use sheet metal snips or aviation shears to cut the material to required lengths. Avoid kinking or creasing the material during handling, as sharp bends can compromise the integrity of the flashing at the fold line.
