Western Red Cedar Wood Roof Shingle Ridge & Hip Cap - 94mm Cover
Description
Western Red Cedar Shingles & Shakes are a truly renewable and sustainable roofing and cladding material; with one of the lowest carbon footprints of any widely used building product. They are light to transport yet durable and offer a high degree of thermal insulation.
Shingles and Shakes have been used for a wide range of structures from simple garden gazebos to domestic dwellings to major theme parks. Shingles and Shakes perform the same functions but are manufactured in different ways. A Shingle is produced by sawing a block of wood on both sides, giving a relatively smooth face and back. A Shake is hand split from a block of cedar along the natural grain of the wood and then resawn to produce one smooth surface.
Can be used for ridges & hips. The premium-grade of shingles for roofs and sidewalls.
It is recommended that ridge caps are installed using four 2.65 x 41mm Stainless Steel Annular Ringshank Nails.
